Playful, trendy hotel with lots of pink! Great location near the Castle for walking, and bus and tram usage. Staff was friendly and engaging. Breakfasts were really good. Would stay here again!
Excellent location! Wonderful front desk staff, great bartenders and bar selection. And the room was spacious and had AC (very important since we visited during a heat wave). Will be back!
The Tiger Lilly was fun, and lively. The staff was helpful in all areas: food, and guest services. The Saturday boozy brunch had a DJ with a great vibe. Even with music you couldn’t hear in your room. Room was clean quiet, dark with sleep in curtains, AC worked well. Room very comfortable

We have stayed here 3 times now and it’s still a great hotel. Clean, good rooms courteous staff and lovely food.
Tigerlilly is located in close proximity to the popular Edinburgh attractions while not being in the busiest area. It's so popular that when I needed to extend our 3-night stay by one day, I was fortunate to find what seemed like the last two available rooms online; although, one was a suite which was not the room I really wanted. I also didn't want us to have to pack up to change rooms on our last night. However, when, upon our arrival, I explained to Kate our dilemma, she said she'd try to move things around, which she succeeded in doing. So, we were able to stay in our same rooms for our entire stay at the cost of the original reservation. We truly enjoyed our stay. Thank you Kate.
Ideal location near all amenities; very nice hotel; room a bit dated; breakfast and customer service was very good.

Amazing interior decoration, friendly staff, fantastic room sizes and situated in a great location. We were celebrating my wife’s 50th birthday and had our room upgraded which made our stay even more special- thank you! We will definitely be returning soon.
Staff was great and our room was fine. There is a nightclub below the hotel so Fri and Sat night the lobby, bar & restaurant area is packed. Very young crowd. Sunday morning at breakfast went to the bathrooms at the restaurant and they were gross. Found 1 toilet out of all their stalls that wasn’t disgusting from the festivities the night before. Better attention needs to be put towards this for the hotel guests. Other than this nice hotel to stay at. Centrally located to walk to all attractions.
