Very good

The property is old. Our room and bed a bit worn. However the bus stop was right outside with easy access to downtown so we did not have to use our car. The evenings were lively and fun and staff friendly. If you don’t mind an older hotel with a few quirks and the price is very reasonable then this is for you.
We were only staying for the one night. Found the staff very attentive especially the guy on the reception desk. Good parking. Convenient for a short taxi ride into town. Finishing off with a good breakfast in the morning.
The location, scenic views & affordability makes Braid Hills Hotel the perfect get away in Edinburgh. All staff were friendly, knowledgeable & extremely helpful. Thank you! Tom
It is not a 5 star hotel, but it is warm, comfortable and friendly and is in a great location - away from the city centre but bus stop nearby and a 15 minute taxi journey.
A lovely hotel on outskirts of edinburgh, very friendly staff and lovely spacious, comfortable room. Would definitely recommend, and hope to be back soon.
Hôtel was nice. It was quaint and staff was extremely nice. Would recommend to others.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
A lovely building. There were lots of stairs to contend with. Older people than us must struggle. However staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfasts good . Meals were very good
A bit of a mixed review. Room was large with good sized bathroom but was outdated and in need of some repair. Also quite stuffy with windows unable to be opened fully. Plenty of parking available and a local bus just metres away. A nice bar and the beds were comfortable
The staff at the front desk were kind and accommodating… helping us check in earlier after a long flight. Wonderful spacious room and services. Fantastic deal
Hotel lovely with amazing, attentive staff. Free parking, lovely bar and restaurant area. Room was amazing as had small outside patio and 2 levels with seperate bedroom upstairs. Just a short bus ride into edinburgh centre.
It was cute, quaint, picturesque, and smelled nice. The staff were wonderful, especially the guy at the front desk. He made me laugh a lot and he was fun to talk to. It was a super welcoming and safe feeling place. The view of Edinburgh was also very pretty. And they gave me shortbread cookies several times. And they had a hotel cat that I got to pet, it was adorable. Loved it ❤️
