This was my first visit to Edinburgh and was delighted with the city but not quite so taken with the Kildonan Lodge I'm afraid. We had booked an executive room as it was my birthday but the room (room 5) was stuffy and airless and the window was extremely hard to open and because the room was on the "garden"... More

The School Reunion was a lunch event with 21 attending. We chose the Kildonan Lodge because of its elegance, gentle and friendly atmosphere. Chrystal and Sean could not have been more attentive, even down to last minute changes, photocopying requests - nothing was too much trouble. I had requested the heating at the last minute, even though this was mid-May... More

Spent an enjoyable break in the Kildonan Lodge Hotel Edinburgh. The hotel is located in a quiet suburb of the city, with ample, private free parking behind the hotel. We spent two nights in a sumptuous room with a large and comfy four-poster bed. The room was spacious, with the bay window filling the room with light. The room was... More

Just stayed this weekend, had a fantastic time, lovely room with four poster bed. Usually stay in the city centre at Roxburgh, George, Apex or Hilton Hotels but this is better ! Staff were lovely, breakfast was delicious. Will definately come back. City Centre 10 mins by bus.

My wife and I have just returned from a short break in Edinburgh, originally we looked to stay nearer the city centre in one of the 'chain hotels' But, for not much more money we decided last minute to try the Kildonan Lodge. So glad we did, it is a lovely period property, we stayed in one of the superior... More

Thank you to Crystal and all staff. Superb service, fantastic food and that warm lounge! Fabulous! Nothing was too much trouble. The lodge is amazing! Had a lovely big room with gorgeous big bath, steaming hot water and sensible sized towels.. Lovely! We had a wonderful stay and thoroughly recommend this hotel.

We have been in lots of the lovely high class"chain" hotels and as good as they are they just aren't as nice, as in cosy and homely and kick back and relax as the Kildonan Lodge. We stayed... More

Me and my partner stayed here on New Years Eve. The hotel was very nice and the staff very friendly. We arrived a few hours early but this was no problem, we were allowed access to the room anyway. We were upgraded rooms which was nice too! The room had a 4 poster bed and spa bath which was very... More
