Excellent

The property, service and cleanliness were excellent even though they were under staffed it did not affect the service.
It was surrounded by commercial businesses which would have put us off booking had we known however, it did spoil our stay it just didn't make for scenic breakfasts. I cannot stress enough how amazing the staff were.
Loved staying at this hotel. Regular buses to Edinburgh and nice seaside area.
The breakfast was typical Scottish/english breakfasts and enjoyable.
The bed was very comfy and I liked the decor in the room.

Great little hotel
Lovely little hotel and restaurant with exceptionally good staff in both bar and restaurant, breakfast was lovely, check in and out easy and straightforward.
We had a great two night stay at the Ravelston House Hotel. Room was very comfortable with an excellent en suite. Tea and coffee provided and the included breakfast was also very good. Bar menu was good, can recommend the haddock. Easy links in and out of the city by very frequent buses which stop within a few yards of the hotel in either direction. We’d definitely stay there again.
Staff were very friendly and welcoming.
Room was large, bed was very comfortable. Everything was sparkling clean.
Breakfast was excellent.
Would highly recommend.
Wonderful staff, a great bar and the restaurant was excellent. I had the beef pie one night and the haddock fish & chips the other.
I'm very glad I got the chance to stay here.
The bedroom was clean and comfortable, had a great sleep( very quiet). The staff were friendly.
Decent bar with reasonable prices.
My only gripe was breakfast. The beans, mushroom, haggis and black pudding were cold.
Would stay again though......
This small hotel was homely and friendly, and suited us well as it was close to family we were visiting. Perhaps because it was between Christmas and New Year, there were few staff and our room was not serviced during our three night stay- we had to make our own bed, and there were no hand towels or bath mat. The soap holder was missing from the shower. However, the room was pleasant and comfortable. The cooked breakfast was made to order ,and was good.
Our stay at the Ravelston was fantastic. From the unique check-in at the bar (with the most energetic bartenders) to breakfast the next morning with the most genuine restaurant staff, our stay was awesome. The room was clean, with cute decor, and had the best shower. The neighborhood is quiet, convenient, and safe. If ever back in Edinburgh, we will be staying here again.
