My in-laws had stayed here twice before us. The beds were very comfortable and the bar in the basement was nice. We also were able to walk to town from the hotel yet there didn't seem to be a lot of traffic around the hotel. more

This hotel is about a 15 minute walk into the city and in a very leafy and quiet area. There are several buses into town. The hotel was originally several large town houses elegantly refurbished into one large premise. There are fascinating photos of Shackleton, the explorer who apparently lived in the house. The staff are very welcoming and nothing... more

I would highly recommend this hotel, views from our room where of leafy quiet suburban street with mature trees, goregous rooms, great restaurant & bar. 10 min walk from city centre... staff exceptionally helpful... would definately stay again! more

Booked this hotel based on the good reviews on Trip Advisor. Would agree with most of what is been said in terms of cleanliness, nice decor and good food. The bedrooms have been updated with modern soft furnishings which look great. Whilst the bathroom was spotless it could benefit from a makeover as the tiling is pretty old style and... more

What a bargain...location, a ten minute [brisk] walk or a leisurely thirty minute walk through tree shaded streets, past midevil stone structures and parks, and, finally, boutique and shoppes on Princes Street in the heart of Edinburgh.

Bargain I had I'm a seasoned traveller, but this hotel was something to really remember. It's not Ritz Carlton, but for what you pay, it's a definite 5*. The hotel's website offers various deals, I had... more

If you're looking for a hotel with warmth, class and great service, Channings Hotel is the place to book! Staff: We stayed there for 5 nights, and the staff could not have been friendlier. Jennifer at reception is the type of individual all hotels should have! She has lots of recommendations for things to do and see in Edinburgh, and... more

This small hotel is nicely settled in a quiet neighborhood outside of all of the hub-bub, yet, within comfortable walking distance to Edinburgh center. The staff is supburb with their graciousness and hospitality. We enjoyed the restuarant downstairs and found the food world class gourmet. We will return. more

This is a quiet, historic hotel in a peaceful neighborhood in Edinburgh. The sights are just a 10-15 minute walk though and the stroll will take you through some formidable and imposing Victorian architecture, all meant to impress. The hotel itself is staid and hushed but the staff members are all warm, friendly and helpful. Rooms are clean and accommodating:... more
