---|---|---|---|---|
3.5 star rating | Well placed for easy access to Edinburgh centre using public transport. | The room had a musty smell and feel that a little more attention could have been given to certain aspects of cleaning, but would not let this put me off using this hotel again. Good breakfast. | 07 August 2013 | |
5.0 star rating | Very nice hotel with excellent staff that made you feel very welcome. | 14 August 2013 | ||
3.0 star rating | The room was small but adequate, staff were helpful | The meals were overpriced and the menu didn't describe adequately the ingredients in dishes, coriander in abundance in a chicken dish. Renovations were going on at the time of our visit so I'm assuming when finished will make a big difference to reception area etc | AussieT | 06 October 2013 |
5.0 star rating | Our first stay at the Braid Hills and couldn't fault it, friendly, professional and very clean rooms, didn't eat in so can't comment on the food. | D and CMH | 17 February 2014 | |
4.5 star rating | Good location, easy access to the City by bus and nice to be on the outskirts of the City after a day's sightseeing. Friendly staff. | If being ultra picky - add scrambled egg and plain youghurt to the breakfast, - room maybe a tad small but, this is being petty. | Anonymous | 21 October 2014 |
5.0 star rating | A lovely hotel, you really felt welcome and the staff were so friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Would recommend staying here. | Sara | 04 January 2017 |
