The staff was good, it's a nice quiet area. The amenities did not blow me away, but the hotel was fine. The room service was pricey.

Spacious Room, Great Food, but not family-friendly Stayed at Novotel Edinburgh Centre for three nights with my family, including a tween and a 5-year-old. The room was spacious and modern, but not suitable for families with small children. Separate toilet without water for hand washing was impractical for kids needing assistance. Lack of a hand shower in the bathtub made bathing difficult without getting ourselves wet. Additionally, no latch for privacy in the bathroom or toilet, coupled with non-opaque doors, made it inconvenient for families. Temperature control was inadequate, leaving us hot and uncomfortable at night. A broken fridge exacerbated the issue, emitting heat instead of cooling our food sufficiently. On the upside, the restaurant food was excellent with a variety of options for breakfast. Kids enjoyed the fun of cooking their own waffles. Staff were helpful and attentive. Overall, while the food and staff were commendable, the room layout and amenities were not family-friendly.

This isn't our first Novotel! We stayed twice some years ago in one in Madrid and loved it. So immediately selected this one and we weren't wrong! The hotel is amazing, clean, nice, perfectly located and the breakfast is spectacular. You can even see the Castle! There's a hop on hop off stop right across. Totally recommended! Oh also, bring a swim suit! Warm indoor pool!

Although this will seem negative, it really should just read as average. I probably won't stay here again as there are other better properties, to my taste, in the immediate area. This was definitely a corporate property. It seemed like every penny was being counted. No wash cloths, adds everywhere for bonus points for not using services. Pass cards and tokens needed to use various facilities, not just available with your room key. We requested additional towels and they were never delivered. I had to ask housekeeping for some off the cart. The staff was universally very nice, the facility was clean, so ultimately an acceptable stay but not exceptional. Also problematic was the ubiquitous perfume/deodorizing scents. Very irritating.

Great overall experience! Only thing I would say was that some things in the room do need to be replaced, for examples the carpet did have multiple stains. Other than that, everything was great, I would recommend!

Excellent location allows to walk in all of the city. Good rooms. Good breakfast. Parking is available also but limited spaces and has EV charging which is a bonus.
