    As young people, we loved the database staff's helpfulness and the clean facilities at the hotel. The decor was lovely, making our stay even more enjoyable. Additionally, the location was perfect, with everything we needed nearby and within walking distance.

    We felt very lucky to have found such a great hotel, and we had no complaints whatsoever.

    We had a very relaxing break at Holyrood. The staff were friendly and professional, with the concierge Garth providing excellent service. The location was great, within walking distance of all major attractions. The room was spacious, nicely furnished, and very clean. The bed was comfortable, and the towels and linen were of excellent quality. We enjoyed a delicious evening meal at the restaurant, Surf 'n' Turf, particularly the seafood options. The swimming pool was a nice bonus, with warm water for a relaxing swim. I would recommend this hotel for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

    Located in the heart of Edinburgh, this hotel is within walking distance to the Royal Mile, Princess Street, and other key attractions. The room was spacious, clean, and well-maintained. The bathroom was modern and fully equipped. The service was excellent, with friendly staff greeting us at check-in and throughout our stay. The breakfast buffet was outstanding, with a wide range of options. Additionally, the hotel offers a pool, gym, and spa facilities for added convenience and relaxation.

    There was one aspect of the hotel that could use improvement.

    I had an amazing experience staying at this hotel! The location was perfect, as it was set in a quiet area but still within walking distance of everything. The staff provided excellent service, greeting all guests by name and going out of their way to ensure a comfortable stay. The amenities were top-notch, including a spa and wellness center with an indoor swimming pool and sauna. The room was spacious and well-equipped, with all the necessary amenities like air conditioning, a mini-bar, and a flat-screen TV. The restaurant and bar area had a great atmosphere, and the food was delicious. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting!

    I would definitely recommend this hotel to my family and friends. It was a wonderful experience, and I can't wait to go back again in the future.

    The location of the hotel was great, with easy access to the city's main attractions. The room was spacious and comfortable, providing a good night's sleep. The spa facilities were a nice bonus, allowing for relaxation and pampering during our stay.

    The cleanliness of the room was subpar, with dirty lamps and skirting boards. The feather pillows provided no support and were uncomfortable to sleep on.

    My stay at Macdonald Holyrood was wonderful! I stayed for two nights for a leisure trip. The room was spacious with a decent view, very clean, and had a lovely big comfortable bed. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, especially the concierge. The breakfast options were great and catered to different dietary requirements. The hotel is located in a quiet area, ensuring a peaceful stay. I also appreciated the flexibility of the check-out process. I would definitely stay here again!

    Would recommend this hotel.

    The location of this hotel was fantastic, just a short walk from the train station and right off the Royal Mile. The staff were friendly and helpful, making our stay pleasant. We especially enjoyed the renovated sauna, it was a great way to relax after a long day of exploring.

    The room was in need of a deep clean, with dust and stains on the furniture and carpet. The air conditioning didn't work properly and was noisy, making it difficult to sleep.

    Loved the spacious room we stayed in at Holyrood. The breakfast selection was amazing, and the staff were so accommodating. We appreciated the special touch of receiving a chocolate treat for our anniversary. The location was perfect, just a short walk to Victoria Street. we recommend this hotel.

    The hotel is conveniently located near all key sites, making it easy to explore the city. It is close to the main attractions and within walking distance to the center. The rooms are spacious with comfortable beds and the bathrooms are clean. The staff at the main reception are friendly and helpful.

    The breakfast service was a bit disorganized and could be improved.

    This place was in a great location, set in a quiet area but still within walking distance of everything. The staff were really helpful and accommodating, even parking our car underground for us. The room amenities were great, including an iron, tea and coffee facilities, a mini-bar, and a flat-screen TV. The leisure spa and wellness centre was a fantastic feature, with an indoor swimming pool, sauna and massage services.

    Although the staff were friendly and helpful, at times they were too busy with other customers to assist us. However, I would still recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable and luxurious stay in a convenient location, with great amenities and friendly service.
