We had a lovely time at the George the room was very clean and fresh and the staff were very helpful and friendly. We ate at the Tempus restaurant where the meal was delicious. We would definately come back.

"Very good food and room fine for an overnight stay"
Reception staff courteous and efficienct. Dinner was excellent - all three courses were very good and service was very efficient too. Tempus dining room has a good atmophere. Room a bit on the small side and quite cold when I entered, but furnishings are all fine and bed very comfortable. Shower could do with more power and some form of shelf above the sink would be helpful to put razor etc onto. Radio 4 on TV isn`t actually Radio 4. Didn`t receive ordered newspaper in mornng. However, only material comment is lack of WiFi in room, which needs to be addressed.

"Very dissapointed as breakfast not in usual area"
On this occassion I visited with my husband for our wedding anniversary I had told him about the environment for breakfast so I must admit I was really dissapointed when we were shown to the "overflow" area

"A very enjoyable stay, the staff were very helpful and the food was great."

"An Upbeat Classic."
I used to pass the George as a little girl growing up in Edinburgh. I loved it then and do more so now. It has maintained its classic standards but also moved forward with the times. A lovely experience. I will be back.

"Well situated."
Reception area is welcoming, but our twin room was very small - even though we had been upgraded to an executive package(?). Staff not overly friendly.

"A lovely hotel"
This hotel was fantastic, excellent location, lovely comfortable, clean room and good food in the restaurant with a lively atmosphere in the bar, would definitely recommend and would certainly return.

"Great Location, Not sure if we return to this hotel on our next visit to Edinburgh"
Not the best value for money, but accept you are paying mainly for the location, which is perfect! Bar area excellent, but don`t book the front rooms if you want to sleep before 3am, as the double glazed windows have annoying vents fitted which eliminates any soundproofing at all so you hear all of the street noise below. No doubt another "health and safety" issue! Not a major problem for one night, but probally would have asked for another room if staying longer. Breakfast very good and staff very obliging and helpful.

"Would recommend anytime to friends & relatives."

Certainly one of the best hotels in Edinburgh with a location second to none! Beautiful rooms, great food and a wonderful service by all of teh staff. We`ll certainly be staying again. Also, one of the cleanest hotels I`ve stayed in, and I`ve stayed in quite a few! See you soon!

"accomodation good, breakfast -fawlty towers"
I would stay at the hotel for the accomodation, however, breakfast was abysml. Not enough tables & waiting staff, self service hot buffet was lukewarm, tea, coffee and toast took forever to arrive. To cap it all a fire alarm had us out on the street for 10 minutes. Staff were obviously trying to do their best, however, were outnumbered. I would reccommend that in futue the hotel have sufficient staff to cover peak times in the restaurant.

A perfect place to stay - very central to all attractions - spacious rooms and food in hotel top quality - staff are all very friendly and approachable.Everything you would need to have a perfect stay in Edinburgh. It`s also opposite Hard Rock Cafe another benefit.

"Excellent value and better-than-expected sophistication"
I booked on line and got a good rate, my mother and I stayed one night. We were pleasantly surprised at the size and lovely furnishings in the room. The breakfast and service were also great. On our return to Edinburgh after a tour, we stayed somewhere else that cost more than the George Hotel and wasn`t as nice, I`ll know for next time!
