Declining standards

Standards are declining at this hotel that I have been staying at multiple times over 15 years. My check in billing was incorrect, taking a frustrating amount of time to sort next day. My cooked breakfast (that costs over £20) was served with items missing and cold. The selection of food available and service levels has clearly been cut back and no longer a high standard like it used to be. Disappointed as one of my favourite hotels

Enjoyable 2 nights in Edinburge

Really enjoyed my stay. Reception staff excellent, gave us a room upgrade on arrival and were generally very helpful. Room was clean and breakfast very nice. Was great to be able to park the car and get the tram into town. Ordered room service for a treat and was left disappointed. Charged £100 for 2 burgers, 2 cokes and a sauce. Fair enough room service is expensive and I probably would have paid it anyway but charges were unclear. Food arrived cold (no closhes used). Burger buns were hard. Ordered a bearnaise sauce from menu in room, told they don’t sell it. Offered steak sauce, told it was a cream based sauce. Received bbq sauce mixed with hot sauce. Staff, although helpful, could be more polished for a hotel of this standard. Overall was a nice place to be and would stay again.

We luckily received a free upgrade to one of the suites. The room was absolutely fantastic. The bed was massive and incredibly comfy, we didn’t want to get up in the morning. We also ordered room service and the gentleman that brought it up was extremely friendly and helpful. 10/10, would highly recommend.

A pre Christmas break

We unfortunately chose a night when there was s Christmas party, so struggled to find a parking place, of which there are normally plenty. But otherwise, everything was as comfortable as usual.

For whatever reason I thought Malmaison was a decent brand however our room in Leith was pretty tired and cleanliness was not the best. Would I stay again? Absolutely not but at least I know now to avoid.
