"Lovely hotel, great location. Singers, street entertainers outside. Taxis waiting outside. View of castle. Cafes next door for smaller breakfast if you prefer. If you’re less mobile it’s at the bottom of the steep bits of Edinburgh."

10/10 Excellent
"A perfect location! Located just on the corner of the Royal Mike right by St.Giles Cathedral (a great landmark when you’re not sure where you’re at). Walkable to everything including Grassmarket, New Town, St.James shopping quarter & more. Hotel staff is superb! Rooms are very nice, totally updated, air conditioned too! A big bonus, free washer & dryer for guests, soap included!! Bathrooms are quite nice, tub & shower, big fluffy towels. This is my 3rd time staying at Fraser Suites. I’ll never stay anywhere else in Edinburgh! Be sure to make a reservation to eat at Vittoria’s on the South Bridge, just a short walk, and food & drinks are fantastic!! You won’t be disappointed!"

8/10 Good
"Location is terrific, easy walk to many places in Edinburgh. Whether you enter hotel from the corner or the side you are hit with stairs - early 70's and this would be a deterrent from booking again. We tried for early check in (both by written request the prior week and at 9:30 am the morning of check in) and did not get in until the 3 pm check in time despite sitting in lobby for 2 hours and watching 30-40 people check in early. Additionally, we paid an upcharge for a "view" - we could see some patches of green through small openings in trees, and then we could see a building full of scaffolding through the treetops, across the railyard. Guess I needed a definition of what constitutes a "view". Left our stay feeling ripped off."

"Good for the price, although during the Festival it is considerably more expensive than when I tried it out for 1 night about 4 months ago. My only niggle is, could have more room in the shower, or a sliding door so one part of the area can stay dry. You will get your clothes wet from the floor when getting dressed"

"Loved this hotel. Great location, excellent staff, fun little gems all over the hotel. Loved the larger than average hotel bath towels. Hotel is located next to an outdoor bar but on the 2nd floor we didn't hear much of it and it didn't bother us. Wo8ld 100% stay here again. Now one of my favorite hotels."
