    The bathroom is a bit dark and uncomfortable.

    As expected from a boutique hotel, the interior is pretty and the rooms are large. The bed is big and comfortable. It's a good location for walking around Edinburgh and there are plenty of delicious restaurants nearby.

    This property is beautiful and in a good location for sightseeing. Stayed in many hotels all over the world but what makes the Tigerlilly stand out is definitely the staff. Friendly, helpful and overall just amazing.

    The aircon in the room let it down a little as quiet noisy there was no way to switch it off but under stand its an older building and not staffs fault And the common Area toilets were all disgusting my daughter went to use them before leaving hotel and decided against using them as there was faeces in every toilet don't know if this was a flushing problem but had left the premises when she told me and had to go elsewhere if I had known I would have said to staff before leaving so maybe staff checking them more regularly is a good idea

    The bed was a good size and comfortable, shower was fab and also spacious along with the room lovely breakfast and cocktails were great too Staff were also very attentive and laid back and the common areas were lovely areas to relax in the open fire was also a great focal point.

    The common toilets could have benefited for some regular cleaning and preventive maintenance throughout the day. A minor point for improvement.

    We were upgraded to a suite which was a nice welcome gift! The hotel is strategically located and is greatly complimented by a restaurant and a couple of cocktail bars that have amazing cocktails and are being run by polite and professional staff. Breakfast was a la carte, which adds a personalised tone away from the typical buffet. Same is true for the lunch and dinner options which is a balanced blend of local and international choices. It is great to have so many options for food and drink in the hotel you are staying! We are regulars in EDI but first time stayed there, so we now have a safe option to choose!

    Spacious and clean room. We stayed in a luxury double. It was a great size. Bed was comfortable and shower was amazing! Staff were friendly and accommodating, especially our breakfast server. Breakfast was available until 12pm which we really liked! Good location, easy walking distance to all major sites and attractions. Good restaurants and pubs surrounding the hotel. We will definitely book again.

    There are very few things to dislike . If I had to pick one is that as I am disabled. and has a bit difficult getting up and down the entrance steps as there is no handrail so had to rely on my friend to help me up and down. Didn't spoil my stay though

    I don't know where to begin.We travelled at 2 fiends , me , more mature and my friend in her thirties, so covering the perspective fom two age groups. Tiger Lily is in an excellent location, a few minute walk from the Dome and a few minutes more to Princess St and the Shopping centre. Everything about Tiger Lily is fabulous, beautiful decor, exceptional food, clean, spacious, well equipped rooms complete with minibar and coffee machine. However, the feather in the cap above all else has to be the staff. Each and every one without exemtion were phenomenal, Going out of their way to make sure your stay is a perfect experience and everyone so friendly. I have stayed in many paces with good staff, but the staff here are on another level. I had been to tiger lily previously only for food and drinks and decided to come back and stay. Excellent in every way

    Although the room was beautifully presented and spacious the temperature was too warm and didn't seem to be controllable.

    Excellent location in the centre of the New Town of Edinburgh. Beautiful building with a great layout and relaxed atmosphere. The extra special ingredient that makes a visit to Tigerlily so good is the quality of the staff. They were so welcoming and attentive, helpful and friendly. Well done to all, a real credit to the hotel

    My breakfast was really poor, it was lukewarm and what I ate tasted like it had been hanging around a long time.

    Loved the decor, the bar areas were very comfortable with a lovely atmosphere. Our evening meal was fantastic

    Breakfast not great, cold and service slow. Forgot item I had pre-ordered for my room on arrival as a surprise for my daughter. Did apologise but didn’t do anything to compensate even a token gesture would have been nice

    Accommodation, room very nice. Drinks menu and cocktails extensive and great. Staff on the whole very friendly.
