Lovely breakfast. Had to wait for about 5 mins to be served at bar after we arrived. Nobody working at bar. Could be a better stay if we had a better view from our room. Room smelled of paint and there was paint spilled on bits of the carpet.

I travelled with my partner and 10 months baby. I have to admit I only look at the reviews but I had completely overlooked the fact that it is a very old hotel. I sincerely appreciate the hotel staff to help carry my suitcase up to the second floor with the help and support from the receptionist is outstanding. but everything else is a nightmare. There was a spider the size of my baby fist, the room floor carpet was definitely not clean or at least appear clean. The shower water drips out so you have to take 2X more time to wash. The baby co sleeps with us and having 2 singles put together is fine but then you get the gap in between which the hotel can cover it with a topper? Unfortunately with the price we paid, I don’t think is worth. I hope you can look into improving the hotel condition.

The hotel itself is beautiful restaurant food excellent with good service - staff attentive and welcoming - the bedroom however was poor by any standards - really due a major makeover - even although the price per night was very competitive - did not match decor of travel lodge or Ibis - very disappointing

The hotel albeit beautiful on the outside, needs a really good refurb. The carpets are all tatty and there are lots of stairs! My TV in my room kept losing signal which is super annoying, then the remote control wouldn't work at all so I had to get up and manually switch it off. I did report this to reception but it wasn't acted on. The water pressure was really low and the shower took ages to warm up. The rooms all need a good decorate, the bathroom however was lovely My key wouldn't work twice. The lovely receptionist sorted it but it was really inconvenient having to trail all the way back to reception twice. Great for parking. .

This was a lovely hotel. The fund was superb & well priced. There was no lift so not very accessible. Cases had to be carried up the stairs & staff didn’t volunteer to help. The hotel ground floor looked good but as you went up the stairs it began to look more worn & threadbare.

Signature room was awful: no side tables or side lights by bed which meant I had to switch off the central light by the door and then navigate back to the bed in the dark. The bed allegedly had controls to raise the mattress and pop-up a Tv from the footboard but again, nothing worked. The central light was a chandelier which had a dodgy light which flickered and neither the TV in the main room, nor the one on the bathroom actually worked. I was staying two nights and complained on the first day and was told that someone would arrive the next day to fix the main TV but alas, although a new TV arrived, it still didn’t work. I emailed the manager to complain again but no response was forthcoming, Terrible customer service. I can only assume that the signature vibe was Fawlty Towers.

Rooms are large but overall they are tired and need updating. Limited menu in the restaurant for dinner and the breakfast area is like a sauna. Additionally the key card stopped working every day which meant I was up and down three floors (no lift). Positives are nice staff, the food is good and there are lots of hills for those that like walking.

Stayed 2 nights room only so can't comment on breakfast. We were given a complimentary upgrade to a large room on the top floor overlooking the hills to the side which was nice. It had a very large bathroom with bath. Room very comfortable with a separate tap/sink for water - we slept very well. We ate in the restaurant the first night and the food was very good and reasonably priced. Service was very friendly and started well but unfortunately there was a very long wait after the main course where we were not offered deserts so we gave up and left. Three Thatchers ciders on draft was nice! Location great with large car park and bus stop to Edinburgh centre just down the steps on the road beside the hotel - frequent buses taking about half hour. Overall a very good stay.

staying for business purposes, I always prefer an independent hotel over a 'chain'. Braid Hills is full of character, in a tremendous setting. The breakfast was outstanding value and quality! There was an issue at dinner, where the restaurant staff were at times overwhelmed. The Manager kindly addressed this to my satisfaction. It would not prevent me from returning on a weekly basis for the next 2 months.
