The receptionist was not welcoming or pleasant . The bed was spongy. The bedside light was faulty. There was no hotwater. At £70 for the night with no breakfast included this is not good value for money more

My friend & I decided to do a road trip to Scotland for 3 nights in July 2009, starting off at Edinburgh. We came across this hotel on the internet and were drawn to the price. Anyway, with us only having a limited budget, we went ahead and booked a twin room for the night. Firstly, the good points: The... more

Stayed here for the Fringe 2009. On reading the reviews we were dreading the stay. However, they all did a GREAT disservice to this hotel. The staff were friendly, the hotel was clean and didn't smell of dogs. The rooms were well equipped and nowhere near as bad as the other reviews portray. It is also near enough to walk... more

The location is very good indeed. Yes, the reception area did smell of dog, but you don't have to sleep there and the service was... more

Having been advised by the Tourist board booking line that the Ritz was "a good standard two star hotel", I booked a twin room during the festival this year. For £90.00 per night I wasn't expecting luxury but this place was truely awful. The hotel was smelly, shabby and the rooms were dirty and really depressing. The large moth eaten... more

If you like the smell of dogs this is the place for you! We stayed at this hotel during August 2005. The smell is the first thing that hits you as you enter the lobby. We then noticed the source of the smell…two yapping dogs behind the counter. Don’t expect a warm welcome either. We were made to feel very... more

Orribile!
