The property was smack in the middle of Edinburgh. Steps away from new town and just a short walk to Old Town. Staff were very helpful and our room stay was very comfortable.

Very friendly staff and a nice hotel in a very convenient location for the train station and visiting the city. The room was clean and comfortable but for the price I would expect a fridge and the clothes storage was very minimal.

This property is excellent! The staff is very friendly and helpful. The restaurant is excellent and a nice place to unwind. Our room was very nice with plenty of room and a terrific view of the castle. The location was excellent as it’s in walking distance to the train station and public transportation. We will definitely stay here the next time we visit Edinburgh!

Great hotel right on Princes Street. Room was very comfortable with a great view of the castle and Scott Monument. Breakfast was excellent with a great range of cereal, hot food, breads, cold meats, cheese and fresh fruit. My one caveat would be that as the rooms with castle view are right over Princes Street, th nigare not for anyone averse toni

The Mountain Royal Hotel has an amazing location and was the home base of our travels in the lowlands. Breakfast was very good for a buffet/continental style offering. The only criticism I have would be the ridiculous showers. There was literally no way to shower with our soaking the entire bathroom. Very strange design decision.

The property is clean and has a lovely new restaurant and bar area. We were only staying one night - would have loved to stay longer! Great location about one block from Edinburgh Waverly Station.
