The Hilton Carlton was a perfect hotel to stay while wanting to explore all that Edinburgh has to offer. Old Town and New Town seemed only a few steps away. There were plenty of dining and shopping options all in proximity. The staff was courteous and the rooms were clean. The hallways were a bit of a maze, but helped us get out steps in! Also love Ms the spiral staircase down to the exercise room.

The location is perfect, but unfortunately, the surrounding area has construction, which is often loud. The hotel itself has construction on it. The staff was polite and helpful. The room was clean.

Love how big the bedroom size was especially where the hotel was located. The staff were very helpful and polite. The bathroom that we used could be better (ie toilet and the shower area). It would have been very nice and helpful if there was more information about transportation and parking around the area on the website. Over all I would use this services again, if need be. And thanks for having us.

We found it difficult to find the property, as it is covered head to toe in scaffolding. Once inside, the building work is also under refurbishment, with temporary walls throughout. I think a note on the hotel's website about this would have been helpful, as I left feeling disappointed. We were away for my husband's birthday, and had I known building work was happening, I might have chosen elsewhere. The price didnt reflect the current standard of the hotel.

Very convenient to the Edinburgh Castle and most attractions, important for those who have never been to Edinburgh, it’s very hilly with lots of steps, this place is on a route that’s very accessible and relatively flat and you won’t smoke yourself carrying luggage.
