Since our flight arrived early I was happy that the front desk was able to get us checked in early. Concierge walked up to us to hand us a box of chocolates and a welcoming note from the hotel. Staff was also responsive when we were short towels or in room amenities ran out. Our room was close to the M Club and a good size for us. Bed was comfy and bathroom was large. Breakfast was included as part of my benefits and the buffet and made to order items were the same every morning. Hot Buffet included scrambled eggs, haggis, bacon and sausages, mushrooms and tomatoes. Cold buffet had cereals, breads and pastries, yogurts and fruits. The smoked salmon plate was our favorite but porridge, waffles were other options. The M Club evening was ok for drinks but the finger food options were quite limited. The nut mix was my favorite. Location of the hotel was at the end of the Royal Mile which was less crowded and quieter. A Tesco convenience store was a short walk away and the Palace of Holyrood and Scottish Parliament sites close by. We arrived and departed via an Uber as it was more convenient for us. Would consider returning on a future trip back to Edinburgh.

There is a restaurant in the hotel but there are a LOT of restaurants within walking distance. We had asked for a room with two beds thinking they would be single beds. (Our last experience with hotels in Europe was not a great one. We had a tiny room and a tiny bed,) When we got our room it was bigger than we expected. It had two beds-one was a king and the other a queen. What a nice surprise! There is no air conditioning in most hotels in Europe. With the windows open and a fan I was quite comfortable because the temp was around 60° the three nights we were there. The hubby who likes it much colder said it was bearable. The staff was friendly. The hotel was clean. I don't remember if breakfast is included in the price. There is a buffet breakfast or you can order off the menu. The last morning I ordered the smoked salmon, poached eggs, and sourdough toast off the hot menu. It was delicious. Had to have smoked salmon before I left Scotland...wish I would have ordered it sooner. Yummy. Would have given it 4 stars but with the lack of ac and having to climb several sets of stairs before you get to the elevator I'm giving it 3 stars. In all fairness, on occasion I did use the hotel ramp to get into or leave the hotel but that entailed walking through the rain. It did, however, lead you directly to the elevator.

One of the major benefits for me is that they let you borrow a straightener from the front desk. My hair was so grateful!! The rooms are tiny but that's to be expected in Europe! The WiFi wasn't fantastic either but we really didn't need it much.

Yet, I found their staff to be very helpful in assisting with questions when I approached them. My room was a decent sized room and similar to other Marriott Courtyards in other cities. Location was excellent for me as it was closed to many restaurants, shopping centers and less than a 10 minute walk to places I wanted to visit close to the city center. Be aware of the bike path right in front of the hotel and look twice to avoid any potential accidents. Breakfast had a variety of cold and hot options. It is a super busy place but I didn't feel rushed to leave. We also had our farewell dinner at their restaurant. It was a decent meal.

I was in town for a wedding and, with a weekend full of activities, I was happy to be lodging in a place that I could walk to all the touristy spots, be a stone's throw from shopping and cuisine, and easily grab a cab to all the events we were attending. Just great! A few things: -No phones in the room so you can't call down if you need something, and they can't call you. Normally this would not matter, but, for my trip, the card I originally booked the hotel on was canceled and I needed to provide a new one. The front desk actually brought a letter up to the room to inform me. It was kind of funny! -No washcloths. Maybe this is a Scotland thing, but it was quite strange using the same soap as shampoo and body wash, and having to do it with your hands. -The views. Awesome if you have a perimeter room, but nonexistent if you are on the interior. See if you can get a room with a view - it's well worth it! -A lobby that serves food 24 hours. This is key if you find that you've had way too many Innis & Gunn's at Whistle Binkies or CC Blooms. Location, Location, Location. Price, Price, Price. Motel One is everything nice.

On our floor there were just 4 rooms close by with 2 elevators. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Luggage storage is available for free. Breakfast was not included but if you want one it's £17 per person add on. I definitely recommend Ten Hill. It is a bit pricey but love this hotel.

Every staff member was super polite and after alot of fun chatter, they provided us with our room card and complimentary Wi-Fi throughout the hotel. Service requests to our room immediately - nothing strange, just extra pillows, towels and a jug of ice water. Located on a side road for easy taxi access. A restaurant is offered inside the hotel lobby for a about 15£ a meal. In addition, a full liquor bar called Surgeons Quarter is open late and we took advantage quickly by sampling the Belhaven Black Scottish Stout Beer and ordering a Coffee with Irish Cream. We moved to the comfy modern lounge (Yes, I had Irish coffee in Scotland). The rooms were delightfully contemporary modern with a spotless bathroom and steaming hot water pressure. In this country, we did not have to leave the windows open since we had ice cold a/c. The only negative was the beds are mini kings and hard as oak. We both woke each morning with severe pain back pain and numb arms and shoulders. The wife had a beautiful wood desk for her makeup expedition every morning with ample lighting. We walked to the Black Medicine Coffee Company next door to fetch a needed jolt of coffee and a salmon cream cheese bagel. After eight countries in twenty days, this one is easily in my top two best for the location, ammenities, staff and cleanliness. Recommend this place to all in search of a stress free relaxing vacation. Except for the one issue with the evil beds, this hotel receives a strong 4.8 star rating.
