Edinburgh City Centre Bruntsfield Hotel, WorldHotels Elite

Stayed in one of the refurbished rooms (33) Hotel is looking great as we are regular visitors we saw a big improvement from last summer. Room was lovely and breakfast and service was great. Main problem was the noise from the bar directly underneath the room. Reception had said bar closed around 11pm. Music was very loud in our room and went onto past 12.30. Couldn't sleep sounded like a nightclub below us.... less

The actual hotel is lovely. Our room (superior double) was great. Lounge area, big bathroom with big shower and free standing bath, king size bed. Everything we could ask for really… But we didn’t book this hotel because it was nice. We booked it because we were spending one day/night in Edinburgh before heading to the highlands and wanted to be in the centre of the city so we could make the most of the city and see as much as we could… In reality the hotel is nearly a half an hour walk into the city. Not a huge distance but also not what is implied by the title of the hotel saying city centre 🤔 One other little thing that wasnt ideal is the lift has to be used instead of stairs down to breakfast and we waited nearly 10 mins for said lift this morning. When we got down for breakfast the range of breakfast was lovely, the waitress when she took our food order though seemed quite impatient like we were late and the kitchen would have to rush to get our breakfast and then made a comment about me not wanting haggis and black pudding but wanted to try the vegetarian haggis ‘oh the chef will love that’ I don’t care what the chef loves… 😒 less

Great hotel in a lovely location. Our room was spacious, spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Scottish breakfast was excellent - cooked to order with lots to choose from. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The hotel is on a good bus route and Edinburgh city centre is a 20 minute walk through the Meadows. Excellent pre-Christmas break! less

Arrived Saturday, small car park but managed to get a space which was £10 for 24 hours. Really friendly and helpful staff, 10/10 for service. Main hotel areas such as bar, restaurant and lobby really nice, high quality, clean and smart. We had a superior double room. Very large room, loads of space, great seating area, large bed, very comfortable and great night sleep. The bathroom was large but quite dated however I believe the rooms are being updated and renovated. The room itself looked good when we walked in but at closer view there was a lot of dust on things and the carpets and walls were quite grubby. It was a shame as it was a really nice sized room but just needed a bit of a freshen up and a better clean. Sunday morning after a very late night we were woken to banging and clattering and what sounded like a drill. Seems the renovations were happening right outside our room which wasn’t ideal. Breakfast was £10 a person. Really good quality food and lots of choice. Only issue was that the tables were so close together i couldn’t even squeeze through without knocking things on the table with my bum! Given the situation with Covid I expected the the tables would be further apart. It was so crammed in a small area that it felt a little claustrophobic trying to eat our food so close to other people. Overall I would recommend this hotel and would stay again. less

Good quality breakfasts. Very helpful and friendly staff. A good bus service nearby to access central Edinburgh. We had a four-poster room but it was not exceptional. Renovation work was going on during our visit (Sep 2021) which meant we had to wait for empty lifts to access breakfast. less
