    "Great location, great facilities, friendly staff. I love Edinburgh as a city and have visited 3 times but if you are travelling around now (oct, 2009)be aware that one of the main streets, Princes Street, is under construction with Tram Lines at the minute. But this is well away from the hotel and doesn't stop you getting to the shops! Overall had a great stay but Edinburgh is one of my favourite places to visit anyway, a few minor things but would would definitely come back and would book Frederick House Hotel again as the location is paramount!" (108604302)

    As I explained to Customer Service, I could not fault the room for facilities. It had everything we needed, working hot shower, tea/coffee facilities, tv, hairdryer, iron & ironing board, and trouser press. We had a triple room and it was quite spacious, we weren't at all cramped. Check in was quite friendly, as we arrived quite early in the morning our room wasn't ready but we were given the key to a hold room for our luggage until our check in time of 2pm. The location of the hotel could not be better, right in the middle of everything and even walking distance from attractions such as the Dungeons and Edinburgh Castle, also the City Tour Bus. There are many pubs and restaurants close by but you do need to have a close look for some hidden gems.

    The only negative thing I would say about the room is that the room had a rather nasty smell when we arrived. It looked like it had been recently renovated so there were no visible signs of damp, but it smelled really damp. Personally I thought the carpet was a bit worse for wear and could have done with a professional clean, I think in the end it was what was causing the smell. The other unfortunate thing is that the hotel didn't have its own restaurant so breakfast was across the road at Ricks, which we only 1 of the mornings and actually found it quite nice but the only thing on the menu was eggs!

    "Edinburgh is very impressive - a good mix of the historic and the modern. It is easily seen on foot/public transport and the hotel is very central." (108995493)

    The room looked to be recently decorated and was a double - I only booked a single. It was clean and fresh. Breakfast, although taken across the road at Rick's was also very good, with helpful staff and plenty to eat. I have stayed at worse - and more expensive - 4* hotels and was very impressed.

    The only negative thing I can say is that the room didn't have a chain on the door. As a lone female I would have felt safer.

    Great location. Breakfast over the road at Rick's was good.

    Bit tatty, but the price reflected this.

    "unimpressed with the hotel" (107698338)

    we were very dissapointed with the room, we were a party of three female friends who booked a quadruple room as we all wanted to sleep alone. The room had a double bed and a single which we expected but the 4th bed was an extremly small camp bed which was unsuitable for an adult.

    Large comfortable room. Breakfast at Ricks was delicious!! Right in the heart of Edinburgh- a great place to stay for a shopping trip, so many lovely places to go within a very short walk.

    Not bad point, as I knew when I booked, but was odd staying somewhere with no bar/resturant or room service. Plenty of places near by to get a bottle of wine and a few snacks for the room in case of emergency!!

    Very comfortable bed. Very pleasant and helpful reception staff.

    Some early morning noise as windows were being replaced.Net curtain was dirty. Having to cross the road for breakfast where there was no choice of cereal.

    "Good value for money." (97266530)

    The hotel is in an excellent position and the room was of good size. It's a little strange having to go across the road for breakfast but no great inconvenience in the summer, and the breakfast choice is very good.

    The hotel decor is getting a little shabby in places.

    Excellent help from staff, both in person, and on email in the booking process. Good size room for family of 4. Excellent breakfasts at Rick's.

    Room and bathroom were not as clean as they could be. Noisy road, but then it is a central location!

    The hotel is in need of renovation. The top bed covers and blankets were tired, well worn and grubby and torn in places.

    "Comfortable, elevator available, close from everything, staff really nice and helpfull, at the restaurant too...3 choices of good breakfast! Frederick Street can be noisy at night though, and it would be nice to have more than 1 key per room, but appart from that, everything was perfect. Thank you very much! :-)" (97347076)

    Comfortable, elevator available, close from everything, staff really nice and helpfull, at the restaurant too...good breakfast!

    The noise in the street (pub on the other side of the street) Our room was on the side of Frederick Street. It would be nice to be able to have 1 more key... especially when we are 4 in the room, not everybody wants to come back at the same time...

    "Reception staff were friendly and helpful. Accomodation comfortable and warm, with tea/coffe making facilities and tv, clean although dusting required on upper walls and around ceilings, but didn't cause a problem. Hotel close to restaurants, sightseeing buses, attractions and shops, and very convenient. All within walking distance. No noise could be heard in the room from outside." (97684403)

    Comfortable and clean bed, able to adjust heat using thermostat on radiator. No noise could be heard from outside.

    The walls above the radiator were very dusty and the shaver point didn't work in the bathroom. There was a fridge but it was turned off. The shower could have been a little less powerful.

    "A very reasonably-priced hotel with good-sized rooms in an excellent location. The staff are helpful and friendly. Now is probably a good time to review and renew presentation, especially once beyond the public areas." (97983450)

    Convenient for all the central attractions. Good-sized rooms.

    Decoration needs a little tidying up; more attention to detail of cleaning required (carpet edges, skirting-boards, fingermarks on walls, doors, switches) - some remnants of Christmas decorations still obvious in our room in April!

    obviously smoking happening in some of the adjacent rooms which could be smelt in our room and was unpleasant
