We stayed 2 nights travelled with my mother and 2 kids. I booked a room with 2 double beds and room was spacious and clean. We received a room that overlooked the royal mile. My mother loved the fact that the hotel still provided tea/coffee in room. We had breakfast each morning and could not fault it lots of choice available to suit everyone. We also dined in the evening in the hotel and the food choice available was good. Service was excellent and our meal choices didnt disappoint and again we couldnt fault anything about the food or the service. Our room was cleaned on the 2nd day of our stay and tea/coffees topped up along with more toiletries and soft fresh white towels. We found throughout the hotel staff very pleasant and helpful. Front desk receptionists doing an amazing job also. When we return again to Edinburgh we will be definitely choosing Carlton Hilton Hotel thank you for an enjoyable stay!!

Wir waren das erste Mal in Edinburgh. Verlängertes Wochenende. Es hat uns sehr gefallen. Die Hotelnähe zum Schloss, der Altstadt und vielen Restaurants war ein grosses Plus. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit, Zimmer ist sauber. Alles in allem sehr gelungener Aufenthalt, wir kommen gerne wieder.
