We arrived at this hotel to find dirty rooms and filthy bathrooms. We were travelling as a party of three in three separate rooms, all of which were equally bad. This hotel is the worst I have stayed in in Edinburgh and I have stayed in quite a few over the past few months (because of work commitments) Don't touch... More

This is a nice hotel in Edimburg, in a place nearby everything that counts. With a fantastic view of the castel of Edimburg, in the centre of the city, you can go anywhere just walking. Excursions leaves Edimburg from a point near the hotel, witch is very convenient if want to know the Highlands or Loch Ness. I recomend.

We recently stayed at the Point Hotel and even though the staff at the Hotel were very helpful, and the Hotel itself was in a good location,( very near Edinburgh Castle) the decor of the hotel was very dissapointing. We stayed on the second floor, and the carpet was very worn, thread bare really. The room itself was large and... More

We recently had our wedding reception at the Point Hotel and we couldn't be happier with the hotel. The rooms were lovely, spacious, clean and with great views. The staff were wonderful and very helpful, always with a smile. We had breakfast the next morning as well and it was delicious and well stocked. Simply cannot relate the bad reviews... More

My stay was both business and some sight seeing, and this hotel was a very good location for both having the International Conference Centre and Edinburgh Castle very near. The room was clean and airy as the window opened enough to air the room by day. At night it needed to be closed, to cut out noise from the street,... More

Stayed here this week due to working away and it was awful. Lots of little things like the fact that no one bothered to iron the valance on the bed, it looked like it had been screwed up in a ball for a while, the carpets were filthy and the whole place smelt horrible. One of the lifts didn't stop... More

A very friendly, modern and clean hotel in the center of Edinburgh. Surpassed my expectations. Excellent deal with a marvelous breakfast. Located in the heart of the historic section and the theater and music section of Edinburgh. Staff were diligent in making sure we received all we needed.
