Works going on adjacent to the hotel, which essentially means at 7:30am the banging begins.
The hotel could at least inform customer’s of the situation.
Response from Property: Dear Guest,Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.We’re sorry to hear that external works nearby disrupted the peace and quiet of your stay. We understand how frustrating this must have been and sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused. We appreciate your comments and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back under more peaceful circumstances.Kind regards,Vicki Duty ManagerMount Royal Hotel

Fantastic location and very helpful and friendly staff. Room exceeded expectations with great views. Was a bit noisy at times but to be expected and did not detract from our stay. More places to sit / wait around reception would be helpful as we were unsure if we could use the restaurant / breakfast area but this was our only issue. Helpful and efficient breakfast service which we enjoyed. Thank you!

Lovely hotel in a great location, public transport, shopping and many restaurant choices. The hotel has its own restaurant as well which was fabulous as well and bar. Staff are lovely and more than helpful would have no hesitation staying again.

A pleasant stay. Hotel room clean and tidy as was reception and dining. Staff were friendly though housekeeping was slow and had not cleaned my room when I was out for the day, so I returned to an unmade room. Because I’d travelled the night before, after a morning and early afternoon out, I wanted daytime rest and housekeeping walked in on me when I was taking a short nap late afternoon. Said they’d be back in an hour but when they came in I was showering so the room didn’t get made up as they were now going off duty. Offered to replenish my coffee, so at least made a gesture.
Otherwise a pleasant stay. Nicely located in the heart of the city just minutes away from local attractions, the ferris wheel and the train station.
Response from Property: Dear Asif, Thank you for your feedback. We're pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay, appreciated the clean facilities, and found our central location convenient.We’re sorry to hear about the timing issues with housekeeping, but I’m glad this did not negatively affect your stay. Your comments are valuable, and I will share them with our team.Thank you once again for staying with us, and we look forward to welcoming you back in the future!Kind regards,VickiDuty ManagerMount Royal Hotel, Princes Street, Edinburgh

Fabulous stay. Hotel very central..lovely, clean room with a view over Princes Street and the Christmas market, over to the castle. Our only grumble would be lack of drawers in the room.
All the staff were friendly and helpful. We would certainly stay again if visiting Edinburgh.

Excellent value for money and the decor throughout was much smarter than I was expecting.
The location was superb, so central, within easy walking distance of many places of interest and a great choice of bars and restaurants.
My room was small but perfectly adequate and spotlessly clean. It was located at the back of the building, so no views but I wasn’t planning to spend much time in it so this didn’t detract from my experience. The room itself was very quiet and the bed very comfortable, ideal!!
I will certainly stay here again.
Response from Property: Dear Guest, Thank you so much for your lovely review! We're delighted to hear you found us excellent value for money and that the decor exceeded your expectations. Our central location is indeed a great perk, and we're glad it made exploring the local sights and enjoying nearby dining options so convenient for you. While your room may have been compact, it’s good to know it met your needs, providing a peaceful and comfortable space to relax. Thank you again for sharing your experience, and we hope your next visit will be as pleasant as the previous one.Kind Regards Vicki Duty Manager Mount Royal Hotel Princes Street City Edinburgh
