Room very hot. Despite opening windows couldn’t cool it down. Synthetic hard pillows disappointing.

Beautiful hotel. Stunning bar. Traditional luxury. A real treat. Loved the bar for an evening tipple. Stunning breakfast

A very comfortable and high quality small hotel. Easy walking distance to city centre in a quiet residential area. Second time we have stayed and we will return in future.

The entrance lobby can be a bit congested if a larger group arrives complete with luggage. There are luggage trolleys and staff on hand to assist.

It’s an older property in the New Town and its style reflects its history. This is our second visit and we’d definitely stay again. Rooms are exceptionally well appointed and equipped with modern conveniences, such as USB ports, free WiFi and an Nespresso machine, without affecting its traditional style. Bed was very comfortable and we were lucky to be upgraded from a deluxe room to a junior suite, which was spacious with lovely views out over the Forth to Fife. Thank you for the handmade chocolates! All staff are polite and smart. Breakfast was excellent and very fresh. There’s parking immediately behind the hotel, which at £20 for 24 hours’ parking is an excellent and useful commodity in central Edinburgh.

Little touches that made you feel valued. And the staff couldn’t be more helpful. Location is ideal, not far to walk to rose street, and princes street. Only a bit further to the royal mile. But out of the way enough that it’s nice and quiet.

Late booking due to travel disruption. We arrived at 9 and had an excellent bar meal in the lounge. A very welcome refuge after a nightmare journey.

Not an issue with The Bonham but with Booking.com: the room's pictures on booking.com are not accurate and did not reflect the actual room size. I booked a 'Superior King', but the images seem to be of the suites (can't confirm). Overall I do recommend checking directly with the property before booking.

The location is in a very nice and clean area of Edinburgh. It's close to Princes Street and bus routes are very accessible. The property itself is gorgeous and provides a wonderful experience with original features. The room was comfortable with beautiful views over the Firth of Forth. Staff were friendly and attentive. It's a fabulous place for special occasions and I would definitely stay here again.

One negative, which is why they don't get a 10 rating, is that my husband requested oats (porridge in UK terms) without milk as he is lactose intolerant. They confirmed the oats was cooked with water only and brought us a requested cup of warm soy milk. However, later in the day, hubby had a reaction so there was definitely milk in the cereal. We have however come to realize that food producers manufacture the dry oats with skimmed milk powder, so it was quite possible the hotel cooked the oats in water; just that the oats itself had milk which they may not be aware. This is a warning to check all labels although the hospitality industry in the UK is quite good at requesting information on allergies, they need to be aware of the ingredients the food products not just how they prepare the meals.

Service was friendly, quick and efficient. There was a wide selection of offers at the breakfast buffet. We ate in the lounge area which was cozy and comfortable. I could image this room in winter with the fireplace on. I felt like I was in the 1800s with 21st century conveniences. Our room was well lit with sufficient electrical outlets. The amenities, from cookies on the pillows, to quality soap, shampoo, conditioner and body lotion. The bed was comfortable and the room temperature (for a cold wet and windy early spring day) was more comfortable than the other 5-star high end hotels we stayed in. The neighborhood was lovely and invited walking, unfortunately we were only there for one night and it was too windy to go exploring. However, the hotel is within walking distance to the city center.

The hotel private car parking charges in addition to the hotel room fee, most of the hotels I’ve stayed at do not charge the guest an extra fee to park in the hotel car park. There was nowhere to park locally that we could find and it was a bit of luck to get a space in the hotel car park as it was very busy. However the car park was tidy, secure and well maintained.

The hotel is beautiful, the rooms are spacious and comfortable. The staff were very helpful. The vegetarian breakfast was delicious and very filling. The hotel is close enough to walk to most places but far enough away to avoid noise and crowds. I really enjoyed my stay.

The weather! It rained a lot but we had a great time anyway.

Great stay! Staff was exceptional, helpful and friendly. Room was very comfortable, modern and clean. The location is perfect- on a very quiet block yet close to many things. We did a lot of walking. Common areas,bar and dining room are all very attractive, "fancy" furnishings. We highly recommend this hotel!
