Outdated run down. Pictures must be from ten years ago. Very disappointing.

Great location , view and staff. Be prepared for steps, even on the first floor.

Helpful staff

Quaint hotel with good breakfast and great views. Lots of stairs to the third floor!

This is an older hotel, which added to the charm. We found the room with 2 twin beds to be roomy and comfortable with a sitting area of 2 chairs and tea unit quite nice. . The bathroom was clean and large. I'd stay again!

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.

Lovely traditional hotel. Given the age of the building its kept in good shape. Staff are very friendly and well.presented.

Oerhört slitet hotell. Odiskat porslin på rummet. Toaletten satt inte fast i golvet. Väldigt dåligt tryck på vattnet. Det tog 5min att få håret blött.

Excelente vista, diseño del hotel, servicio, limpieza, desayuno, forma de transporte. Tamaño de habitación, y del baño. En verdad excelente. Elegante.

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.

Let us keep our luggage there until check in so we could explore the town hands free x

Enjoyed the historical aspect of the hotel

This hotel is a very old building, renovated (like many in Scotland). We had the family room, which was spacious and comfortable. The mini-fridge and sink were very handy to wash and store fruits and vegetables for snacks. Bus stop to Edinburgh Castle is 1 minute walk. Breakfast was varied. Missed the porridge though.

In general the stay was excellent, the service was great, the staff were friendly, the room was a good size and kept really clean. The only thing letting the hotel down is the decor. It needs a lot of work done on the threadbare carpets and the walls and ceilings need fresh wallpaper/paint, as neither seem to have had any attention for a long time. Other than that I couldn't fault the time spent at the hotel.

Not great not bad No lift Old bulding

Everything about the hotel was excellent. Lots of parking, lovely service, excellent room that was very clean and a marvellous view.

Comfortable stay. Helpful staff . Hotel looks like it needs a bit of touch ups but I know it's a challenging time financially. We enjoyed our 3rd stay there.

Incredible stay! Great experience in every way and I will be back for sure!

Plenty of Parking and ideal to leave the car and use the bus service into the city centre. The bus stop is right outside. Friendly service and lovely view of the castle

Good area for the hotel . Bus right into center is easy and parking is nice . The rooms are nosy and not worth the money . Our wardrobe had dirt in it which made our clothes dirty. Breakfast was average and did not have much selection . Staff were helpful and nice .
