My wife and I stayed at the Clarendon for 2 nights and found it to be a basic hotel that is in need of some refurbishment. However, I would say that they provide a good hearty breakfast, have curtious staff and as far as location is concerned you cannot really fault it at all. The Airport link bus (A100) stops... more

Me and my partner have just returned from a fab 3 day break in Edinburgh. We stayed at the Clarendon hotel and i was really pleased with my choice! When i first saw it from the outside, my initial reaction was "oh no" as its squeezed in between a couple of shops and didnt really stand out as a hotel... more

My father was performing at the Edinburgh Military tattoo and my mother and i decided to book a hotel together that was close to the city and not far from the army barracks where all the performers stayed. We booked in April but due to the popularity of the tattoo and the fringe festival we tried every hotel in town... more

The Clarendon Hotel in Edinburgh is a bit of a mixed bag. The hotel is rated as 3 star but I would suggest that they would only be small stars! The hotel is old, the decore is tired and in need of some renovation. On the other hand, the rooms are quite adequate in size, clean and confortable. The hotel... more

We booked this Hotel through Alpha Rooms firstly because of the reviews on their web page and secondly the pictures, which bear no resemblense of what we found at all. The first room we were given was no bigger than a shoe box. Very shabby in decoration and with very dirty net curtains. The window led out on to the... more

The hotel was in a great location, right in Edinburgh City centre, and I was pleased to be able to book in this location during the edinburgh festival. The room (110) was very clean and facilities were of a good standard for the price. On arrival I went for a shower and the fire alarm was set off in the... more

Good Location, shame about the tramworks outside the front but manageable. Staff very friendly and helpful.Breakfast fine and freshly cooked Room rather small and very hot. Had to open window and double glazing which made it very noisy. Lots of calling and shouting until early hours, them the bin men with their "beep- beep" came along. If we could have... more

This hotel specifically because of it's location. It was in a fantastic spot, only trouble is that when we were there the WHOLE of the front street had been dug up with repair works - which made is difficult to access the hotel as you physically couldn't drive into the street. Luggage had to be dragged for a bit. We... more
