The room hadn't been cleaned, excrement in toilet. Windows were painted shut. No staff there to check in, no tea or coffee in the room had to walk to Waverley inn to get room key. After complaining, we were moved to the Waverley inn. The room there was acceptable! Dont book this hotel.

I would rate my overall stay a 3/5. The property was hard to find. It’s not clearly labeled. Our toilet in our room leaked every time you flushed it. The hot water in our room took 30 minutes to heat up and had weird water pressure. I will say that the staff was very nice and accommodating in the fact that we got in super late after check in due to transportation issues. The overall room was clean but very small.

Vino trip to Inverness from Edinburgh

Good: 1. Location is in main area. Just to find the room is little tricky as no board. 2. Room iscomfortable. 1 double bed, 1 single bed room. 3. Nice breakfast and receptionist is good approach. 4. Dedicated car parking at The Waverley Inn hotel just opposite to this. . 5. Got hot water in shower. Needs to improvement: 1. Toilet flush set leaking water on the floor 2. Need tea and cups , sugar, salt at rooms itself. No hanger. 3. No mat in bathroom to wipe foots. 4. No lock inside bathroom door. 5. Central heater is not working provides temp electric heater. In summer fine but winter need heater in room and bathroom.

Hogmanay accommodation

Hotel staff was very helpful and very accommodating, we arrived very late and we picked up a meal from outside, the staff arranged a seating in the breakfast bar for us right away, very helpful this was. The room was very clean and also the beds spotless. At the time of visit, NewYear an eve we got the hotel for £62 for a family room, every where else was several hundreds. With this in mind you get what you pay for but we got a family run business that I would recommend no problem. Thank you staff at the Royal hotel

pleasantly surprised for the price

we read the reviews on here and was not expecting much for the price. but we was pleasantly surprised with the stay, breakfast was basic but was still very good for price we also found it to be very clean. we was in room 27 and would be very happy to stay there again. The only thing that I would say is no signs to tell you where it is so for others to find it, its on the very corner of the street.

Room was clean. Location centre of town. However, no signage of hotel (we drove past it twice and needed to ring hotel for directions). Poor housekeeping- only one towel, one pillow and no cups. Receptionist not helpful.

No hot water on 2nd floor shower

Everything was nice about the property BUT there was no hot water in the showers in 2nd floor !!, and no one at the reception to assist in the morning. Had to take a cold water shower on a cold autumn morning. One does not expect this from a registered hotel in Scotland

We booked for 2 double bed and one single bed ensuite room. But we didn't get what we booked as the receptionist told there was no family room left but in websites it was showing available. Since it was night we couldn't book any other hotel and we were left with no option other than go on with just a double bedroom ensuite. Whole night we couldn't sleep properly as we were 3 people in one bed.
