"The property worked for our family of 5 stay; however, property does not have AC which would be important in the summer. Additionally, sleeping 5 meant sharing spaces as there is only a large great room / kitchen and the master bedroom with master bath. If you need a laundry you’ll have to reserve somewhere else. The location was the best attribute of this property. It is close to everything."

Top Royal Lyceum Theatre Hotel Reviews

Hilton Edinburgh Carlton

8/10 Good

"The hotel is well situated in the center of Old Towne, halfway between Holyrood Castle and Edinburgh Castle. We stayed on the Executive level which had several benefits. A very good buffet breakfast, Hors d'oeuvres and drinks during happy hour(s). It was a great way to relax after a long day of walking around. The staff was very helpful and had a map for everywhere you wanted to go. The room was quite, bed comfortable, and they kept the refrigerator stocked with water and cold drinks. The hotel was not cheap, but worth the price, I would go back again."
