The Claremont Hotel Edinburgh

Hotel

I was due to travel here over the summer and had a room booked. Sadly due to the corona virus I could not travel to the U. K. At all. The hotel were very quick to give me a full refund, even though they did not have to. I appreciate this very much, taking it as a kindness. When I do get to Edinburgh again I will definitely try to stay here and recommend to travelers.

Alex was amazing, this place was friendly and accommodating and even put up with 15 drunken welsh ladies into the early hours every night. Defo book again if I was to ever go back to Edinburgh. We love you Alex!

What an amazing stay at this hotel… Alex was an absolute legend… couldn’t do enough for the 15 of us that stayed… nothing was too much… rooms lovely. Breakfast was spot on and everyone we met were lovely! Highly recommend… oooo maybe one thing… I would of liked a mug in my room for my tea. The little cup just wasn’t enough ha ha!
Alex we loved you… never stop being you! Definitely come again soon and maybe sightsee. Instead of a boozy weekend lol!

Spacious room. Very friendly staff. Great brekkie. Plenty to choose from and food fresh and piping hot. Only a ten minute walk to princes street. Away from all the hustle and bustle. Would defo go back cxxx.

Had lovley stay owner very helpful friendly room clean fantastic breakfast.

Rooms spacious, washroom drains are slow but breakfast was even better than a 5star hotel with lots of variety. All fresh and nicely served.

Dated hotel which could do with a refurb, fairly basic but great price and very friendly owners.

Very nice staff, helpful and friendly. Historic building. The beds in the quad room were just awful. Plenty of outlets for electronics. Shower was weak and either you hot or too cold. Convenient location too the Royal Mile.

Lovely setting with a lovely host. Generous breakfast included. Very quiet. Easy cab ride to the Royal Mile. The beds in the family (quad twin) room left a LOT to be desired. Shower was either hot or cold, never warm. Wi-Fi was impossible to get onto and stay on for any length of time once you finally got on it.

My experience was not good I didn’t like the beds I woke up in the morning and I had a sore back and I didn’t like the way that the maid tidied up your stuff back into your suitcase that why I give it one star but a couple things need improved in that hotel and then I will happily come back and have another go but I clearly would not recommend this hotel to anyone at the minute but my opinion may be different to somebody else’s cooking wasn’t that great and I definitely would eat out instead of going to eat on the menu but just improve a couple of things and I will give Claremont another go thanks … Kyle.

Cheap and cheerful hotel, rooms presented well, hotel owner very hospitable and looks after you well.

Good location for the city centre, it was a little dated in the room, bed was not to bad, I had an early start so didn't get chance to have breakfast, but I thought it was excellent value for money.

If you are looking for a Ferrari, go to Maranello. This hotel has comfortable rooms, an excellent breakfast, and a very helpful staff. It's cheap, but it's ok.

In quite a good location close to the city centre. Friendly staff, large rooms and hot showers. Really pretty old building. Decent furnishings, good choice of foods for breakfast. Would recommend.

Very nice and clean, made the bed while we were put shopping. Nice staff and breakfast.

Overall it's fine. Decent rooms with enough space for everyone. Okay breakfast with plenty of choices for all. Overall nice. Nothing special, just getting everything done nicely.

Good hotel, very friendly staff and a nice breakfast. Room was clean and sizable, plus had a good shower.

Place is quite and the hosts were good and helpful. The rooms are slightly old fashioned but worth for the price. 15 mins walkable from Waverley station and has got all amenities for above average stay. I would definitely stay here again.

A group of friends booked this BB few nights as it was the only place at the time of booking, who was able accommodate our needs (4 single beds) in one room). We left after the first night.

Upon arrival we had rang for reception about 5times. Eventually turned up, Rooms are a bit old. But they were clean. Loved the bathroom it was big and great shower. Only downside was the room was cold. Window had been left open and we had walked from princes street (15mins walk) which we got caught in the rain so we got soaked and we were cold. So arriving at a cold room wasnt good. There was a bit noise from guests slamming their doors which then set our 2dogs off. This went on for a while. I do appologise if they had kept anyone up. Not our fault! The Wi-Fi didnt work and we couldnt get breakfast as er had to leave at 7am and breakfast was served at 8am. Wouldnt pay the price I paid for it though. Was last minute &needed it. Other than that it was ok.

Great value for money. Stayed for a stag weekend. Can't fault it.

Great for a couple of nights for a stag do.

Basic and cheap. Great for a stag do.

We got the perfect room for our family of five. It was comfortable, clean, convenient and reasonably priced. The staff were friendly and helpful too. The breakfast options were good, especially the cooked breakfast. I will choose it again on our next trip to Edinburgh.

We have stayed at the this hotel many times. It's lovely clean and staff are great. It's walking distance to the centre of Edinburgh and has bars and restaurants in walking distance.
With free parking too.

Just stayed at this very dated hotel. Basic facilities and in need of updating. Bedding has been washed a zillion times and the place has an old musty smell about it. Millions of stairs and god knows how you would get out of there was a fire. Kettle had to be put on the floor to plug in and no toiletries. It was pretty cheap so I suppose you get what you pay for but it's such a shame. Please update!
