    "Overall the stay at the clarendon was average. It was not too expensive for edinburgh prices but way too expensive for the quality of the hotel. If i was to goto edinburgh again i would consider a more expensive and hopefuly therefore better hotel." (108026835)

    The check in process was very good, as soon as we arrived the staff at the hotel knew we had booked and directed us to our room. Location was'nt too bad either, just across the road to princess street. They give you a discount card for the parking which is supposed to be 20% but it's still costly.

    There was no car park at the hotel and the nearest is down the street approx 500 yards away which is not secure parking and costs

    "Good stay. Centrally located at the end of Princes Street.Breakfast was good and set us up for the day. The hotel seemeed a bit'tired' in some areas but overall it was to an adequate standard. Staff were friendly and polite although they couldn't find me any Earl Grey tea bags!Overall a good stay." (107225519)

    Friendly, corteous staff.Room was clean.Beds comfortable.

    Shower leaked so bathroom floor became a lake. I did mention it to hotel and they were grateful for my comments and promised to put it right. Bedlinen clean but bedspread had unsavoury looking mark onit which put me off slightly.

    "I enjoyed my stay at the Clarendon and would stay again." (107369997)

    Friendliness and helpfulness of staff was excellent. Everything in the room functioned well. Fire exits were clearly marked. It was nice to have coffee/tea in the room. Breakfast was very tasty. The little hotel bar was quiet, comfy and restful-good to have after touring around all day. Location to the big sites was excellent- I could walk everywhere in the city center. The Air Link Bus from the airport stops right across the street.

    None, really. There was a little bit of street noise but it did not keep me awake. I might recommend some fluffier pillows for the beds.

    Location

    Breakfast was very slow. We had finished out cooked breakfast long before the tea and toast arrived and when we asked we were told that it was only a small toaster. For a hotel that size I would have thought they could have coped with a few guests as it was not really that busy.

    Breakfast was served until 9.30. We ate at 9.15 but could not go back for more food eg. yoghurts, fruit, juice, as the staff clearde everything away at 9.30 promptly.

    Room was adequate, good location for Princes street and buses to the zoo etc. Staff friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good.

    Very noisy on a night time and early morning due to location. Very heavy traffic on road. Woken up at 4.45am by delivery van to newsagent across the road. Decor fairly dated and very 'bumpy' bedroom floor. Waited 45 mins for iron and ironing board to arrive in room.

    "A good central location, with no frills (e.g. hotel management requeuest guests to reuse towels if staying for more than one night - good point, which from a 'green' point I would normally comply, but there weren't any towel rails in the bathroom). As a place to just sleep, not bad at all. " (107280252)

    Hotel position is extremely convenient. Staff are friendly, and rooms are clean, but rather basic.

    Decor in bedroom was very dated, and room was rather dark. What is adverstised as a hotel bar is little more than a hopitality bar which is not serviced, despite being advertised as being open from 11am to whenever (We did not venture there after discovering a more friendly hotel bar in the immediate facility, which was much more congenial). Breakfast is pretty limited.

    Very good location, and an amazing breakfast.

    Need to improve the service they provide. The TV was not working an it took more than 50 minutes to send someone over. The service of the waitress during breakfast was not good, she seems to be complaining all the time.

    "Hotel was convenient location and reasonable accomodattion; staff addressed the normal things they were comfortable doing, but made no effort to resolve the parking issue. Parking cost undermined the good value of the hotel price. " (97232724)

    --room was clean --good mattress --good breakfast; on time --hotel close to downtown; easy access to downtown area --Free Internet

    --no parking provided by hotel; closest available parking was at car park about 5 min away. Cost of parking was 18 pounds per 24 hour period. Hotel claimed an arrangement for 20% discount (they punch a parking voucher in the hotel office with a machine provided by the car park company which is supposed to reduce the fee when checking out of the parking lot). The system didn't work; had to pay full parking fee. Hotel made no effort to resolve the problem; no attendants on duty at the parking deck when we checked out so no opportunity to resolve the issue. --Hotel is in an area of town that is under construction--main street in front of hotel entrance in long term project that will take several years to complete. Neither the directions at booking nor hotel staff (when called them on phone) made any mention of this issue. This was a difficult problem when arriving at night as we did. --shower very hard to adjust the water temperature; --Room quite small to handle luggage for two people

    I am of the opinion that for the West End of Edinburgh this is a well-serviceable provision, at a realistic price.

    Room qiute small, and, in general the inside of the proeprty is becoming tacky and could benefit from a 'face-lift'.

    The room was very clean, service was good, staff were friendly, complimentary breakfast was excellent

    The view from the room was very bad. The window opened out to a roof terrace full of bird droppings. I understand every guest may not get the best view but for 100Uk pounds room,I expected better. You can at least make a garden terrace in the roof so that guests can look out of the window.

    The hotel was perfectly located in the centre of town and close to the bars and restaurants.

    Because the hotel was old the floorboards were very sqeaky and the walls were thin and could therefore heard people in the next rooom.

    The room was very stuffy and hot with no fresh air and no air conditioning. Even the corridors were stuffy. Seemed like the hotel did not have air conditioning. There was no shelf in the shower to put toiletries.
