InterContinental Hotels EDINBURGH THE GEORGE by IHG, an IHG Hotel

Excellent

Good location, decent breakfast, helpful staff. Room ok, small window and near hallway noisy. Hotel nice decor.

The hotel was very accommodating with early check-ins. The location is also great. Dinner at their restaurant was also very good. Breakfast, however, was not. We found alternative breakfast places for the rest of our stay. The rooms have carpets which are not hygienic for hotels - mine had a big stain on it. The bathroom had no fan for ventilation, and the room was freezing. I asked for a second duvet and still had to buy a hot water bottle to stay warm enough to sleep well. There were also no drawers in the room other than the tiny ones in the bedside tables. Overall, I don't think this hotel warrants 5 stars or the prices they charge.

We enjoyed our one-night stay on our way back from Skye. The room was spacious and quiet. Much nicer than similar hotels in the US.

The hotel is made up of two old buildings that have been (sort of) connected. But going from reception to your room can involve a complicated process of going to one floor, walking across, then going to another floor. Staff were super helpful. Breakfast is excellent and the location can’t be beat. And Edinburgh is such a wonderful place to visit!

There is a lot to like about The George. Great location and very good service. However, my room had an issue with the air-con,

This is my third stay here in 2 years and the stuff is exceptional- they treat me like returning family. Service and friendliness is above and beyond! Not to mention the most excellent location for exploring Edinburgh. Close to great restaurants and shopping yet also quiet and reserved.

Virkelig serviceminded personale, tak for det. Fint værelse, med te, kaffe og vand. Badeværelse var dog lige småt nok og vandtrykket minimalt, men ok. Værelserne var rolige og stille og sengene gode. 3 overnatninger. Foyeren var tit et stort kaos, af events, forsamlinger og koncerter. Morgenmaden var god, rart med både a la carte og buffet. Flere gange fik vi dog andet end bestilt. Kaffen var forfærdeligt tynd, klart lavet til alle de andre gæster fra US of Trump. Jeg måtte bede om stærk europæisk kaffe hver dag. Perfekt placering. Value for money? For dyrt! Hvis man slog 30 % af prisen, ville den være fin. Men, ja vi skal tilbage til Edinburgh. Samme hotel? Ikke nødvendigvis, men heller ikke udelukket.

Excellent stay

Ok værelse, meget lille badeværelse.

Very well situated for many of the main attractions in Edinburgh and for bus, tram and train links. The staff were very friendly and attentive. Rooms were comfortable and clean. There was a good variety of breakfast food options. Slight drawbacks were: our room was pretty noisy (lift, fridge motor, other people's doors slamming and people moving about in the room above), the bathroom is rather cramped and presents a challenge to get in and out of the bath particularly the way the shower screen operated and finally to access some areas of the hotel (eg gym) there was a very convoluted route to and from our hotel room.

The hotel was not clean enough , in some parts like the bar and they don’t have turn down service.

Very nice stay. Highly recommended when in Edinburgh. Everything is very good and makes your time in Edinburgh very easy.

All staff at the hotel were amazing

Excelente

I enjoyed very much! I hope to visit again. Thank you.

Tolle Unterkunft für einen Städtetrip! Alles in der Nähe. Achtet darauf kein 18qm2 großes Zimmer zu buchen, auch wenn die ausreichen, aber es ist doch schon etwas eng. Ansonsten tolles Frühstück, tolles freundliches Personal und toll zentral gelegen.

This is a beautiful hotel in an historic building in New Town Edinburgh. The staff was friendly and helpful. The service was impeccable. We ate at both the Le Petit Beefbar and Burr and co and enjoyed them both. The hotel is near Rose Street with tons of restaurants and Pubs. We liked that it was a relatively short walk to the noisy and busy Royal Mile, but it is in a much more quiet area. Highly recommended!

The building was very pretty and the public areas are nice. Breakfast was also good, there is enough to choose from. Location is perfect. We stayed for five nights and was appointed a room with a very noisy A/C, we had to switch it off to be able to sleep. The toilet wasn’t flushing properly as well. The tissue you throw in comes back up. I personally think that this is one of the problem rooms but the one who assigned the rooms should have given it to short staying guests, not to long staying ones. Anyway, we told Reception about it on our second day before breakfast. When we arrived in the evening, they told us that they fixed it. The noise had certainly toned down but not bearable enough for one to sleep through. Also, whatever they did to tone it down made the A/C warmer. The toilet situation was still the same too. There came an apology note afterwards with a bottle of wine from Guest Relations saying that the problem had been solved. Maybe ask the guest first if it was really fixed before sending the card with wine? Also, the thought was nice but lacking in anticipation. I am traveling w/ my 14 year old daughter, why send wine? It was late and we were tired so we just switched off the A/C that night again. On the 3rd day we had an early tour. I informed the Reception that we needed a better solution when we come back that evening. We finally moved to a smaller room but with quieter A/C and a properly flushing toilet on our third night. A bit disappointing stay.

Everyone was very hospitable. Thanks a lot to everyone
