Edinburgh hotellit Leith

Plussat: The decor, cleanliness, and staff. Everything was just perfect for a break in the city.

Plussat: extremely friendly but not invasive. Brilliant breakfast and the room was perfect; I will recommend the Fraoch to everyone

Plussat: Fraoch House has exceeded our expectation. owner Garath was nothing short of welcoming, the room was spacious, modern and tastefully decorated, it was very clean. Breakfast was delicious with array of fresh fruits, cereal, breads and full hot breakfast. Location was very good with bus stop in front of the establishment or just up the road with numerous buses into town. I would recommend Froach to anyone staying in Edinburgh.

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: Everything was perfect, starting with the room and ending with breakfast. A very nicely decorated interior, an extremely pleasant and friendly host and a convenient location. Get the traditional dish for breakfast - there will be no need for lunch later ;-) And to some other reviewers complaining about the location - oh come on. The bus stop is on the other side of the road and it takes 10 minutes to get to the centre on foot. There are also some nice (and affordable) restaurants, as well as Tesco Express nearby when you get hungry.

Plussat: I liked best the confort and the calm during the night and the delicious breakfast!!!

Plussat: The whole stay was excellent.

Plussat: The room was excellent although the location in the basement was not the best one.Good staff and location. Excellent breakfast.

Plussat: It's a perfect place to be. Very friendly staff, wonderfull room in a origional (1900) setting. Alltogether a very pleasant stay, for a small price you get lost of comfort.

Plussat: Bed was really comfortable . Buses stop outside hotel every 5 minutes. Staff really nice .

Miinukset: Bed sheets weren’t changed all week, would of liked them changed at least once . Eggs were a little over cooked

Plussat: Location

Plussat: As usual, the service & accommodation were good and stay enjoyable

Miinukset: Happy not to have any complaints

Miinukset: Breakfast was terrible, tasteless everything

Plussat: Good location with good facilities on door step. Very easy, cheap and quick access to centre of Edinburgh.

Plussat: Staff were very helpful, just couldn't do enough for their clients.

Miinukset: Continental breakfst very poor. Management should go to the Continent and see what a continental hotel provides for breakfast. Serving Cereal, bread,rolls, two varieties of prepacked porcessed cheese and small sweet cakes for the cash paid is robbery. Oh! I forgot to mention fruit juice, three kinds.!!

Plussat: easy to find and a good breakfast

Plussat: location

Plussat: the hotel staff where great, we have always stayed in crowne plaza hotels before, and feel the staff at this express where the most customer focused we have seen warm and welcome to all . they really knew about the area and there suggestions where good.

Miinukset: shower was broken

Plussat: Clean and efficient with staff who know are pleasant and professional

Miinukset: No

Plussat: Location is in a cool area although well out of the city centre. Buffet breakfast was small but cooked breakfast was good although ran out of Smoked Salmon - in SCOTLAND!!!

Miinukset: Does not deliver on the boutique hotel front. One lift for whole building. The lobby was too small and unwelcoming. Breakfast room so busy that staff did not have time to deliver good service.

Plussat: Cool design, friendly staff, good location - absolutely nothing to complain about.

Plussat: The breakfast was excellent and the staff in the breakfast efficient .

Miinukset: The lighting in the room was poor. This was explained away by staff as a hitch - that the cleaners had switched lights off at the plug points. However the next morning it was again difficult to switch any lights on without crawling around to locate the plugs. Also no extractor fan in the bathroom . The mirror was too misty for shaving and the lighting too poor for my wife to apply make up.

Plussat: We had a very pleasant stay and enjoyed all the facilities, bar, restaurant and location.

Plussat: The location in Leith was lovely with lots of nice restaurants and bars nearby, I was really impressed with Leith as it makes a nice alternative to the cntre of Edinburgh. Breakfast hamper was beautifully presented with good choice.

Miinukset: The hotel is a little tired and not as high a standard as other Mal Maisons I have stayed at (e.g Newcastle). I think it is in need of some updating.

Plussat: Dinner in Brasserie was excellent.

Miinukset: Cooked breakfast a bit disappointing. Bacon not very well cooked.

Plussat: Good service, good food, pleasant surroundings

Miinukset: nothing

Plussat: location

Miinukset: There was no hot water during our stay, which was probably a problem with their boiler as the noise of it kept us awake all night. This was raised with the hotel on checkout and they dealt with it extremely well.

Plussat: Everyone was friendly and helpful and the room was outstanding. The hotel is worth every penny. The experince was amazing!

Plussat: Very friendly, helpfull staff.

Plussat: Nothing.

Miinukset: The room that we were allocated was in an annexe of the building, which was not stated when booking. The room was apparently normally only used for single let but when hotel is full it is used as a double. The room was tiny, you couldn't swing a cat in it. Fine for 1 person but not for 2. Double bed pushed against the wall. Again, fine if only 1 person but not for 2. Tea/coffee making facilities for 1 person only. The only window in the room was a velux window. Had to open window during night as room too stuffy, only to have close it half an hour later after rainwater had come in and all over my overnight bag. Complaint made to staff in morning - still awaiting a reply after a further email and promise of contact.

Plussat: Friendly and welcoming staff. Good location a little outside of the main city.

Miinukset: The shower was cold on one morning when we got up quite late.

Plussat: Henkilökunta oli ystävällistä ja paikkana hotelli on aivan erinomainen. Keskustaan on lyhyt matka ja sen taittaa helposti vaikka kävellen.

Miinukset: Ainut asia mikä hieman vaivasi oli lämpimän vededn vähyys. Meidän kolmen hengen porukasta vain ensinmäinen saattoi saada oikeasti lämpimän suihkun. Muut saivat tyytyä haaleaan tai suoranaan jopa kylmään suihkuun.

Plussat: friendly staff, clean rooms with lots of space, easy access to bus route.

Plussat: Good value for money. Good location with reliable bus service to city centre just outside the door. Room was very spacious, clean and quiet.

Miinukset: The breakfast time, 8am to 9am was very restrictive. It lead to a queue and tables were not set. Appeared to be short staffed at breakfast. Badly need to extend breakfast time.

Plussat: It was cheap and the breakfast was nice.

Miinukset: i did not like being put in the small room next door. It felt as though the pictures online were used to trick us.

Plussat: Location was conveinant for travelling into city centre. Hotel was lovely accommodation

Plussat: The view, the silence, the location

Plussat: Nice place, not far from city centre, nice park in front.

Miinukset: The shower at the top floor (where I was) had problems and sometimes the water was cold.

Plussat: Good situation, nice view, quiet. Good breakfast. Staff OK.

Miinukset: When we first came to our room, it was quite obvious that it has not been cleaned after earlier guests. Even the sheets were unwashed. After our remark the room was cleaned and we were satisfied with the cleaning of the room during the rest of our stay. Room TV was virtually useless, no remote control, bad picture. Only a very primitive indoor antenna (on floor!). Some of the promised facilities were absent: there was no hair dryer, for instance. And no shampoo!

Plussat: The bed was comfortable, the shower water pressure was good, the breakfast was good, The staff were charming, friendly and helpful (thank you Catriona and John). The vicinity was amazingly quiet. This is not a modern purpose-built hotel, but for what it is I couldn't fault it.

Plussat: Excellent staff very friendly and helpfull, 2 milles away from de city center conected by bus wich stop is about 150 meters

Plussat: Friendly hotelier & staff. Good breakfast.

Plussat: The front desk lady was great. Very helpful in getting things for the room and went above and beyond. The hotel is not close to the city center, but the bus station is right across the street and there is a city park there, so it was great for my daughter to be able to run around and play.

Miinukset: I felt the hotel was in need of upgrading. Although the staff were pleasent they did not seem to have much local knowledge such as parking in the area nor did they have a contact no for a private taxi firm. Breakfast was also disappointing as the our sausage was not cooked enough and the kettle was not switching itself off so we had to stand over it while it boiled.

Plussat: It was quiet, so we had a good night's sleep.

Miinukset: It was very basic, to say the least, the cooked breakfast was not to be recommended, there was a queue at the toaster/kettle which had to be shared with all guests during breakfast (one hour slot). The staff consisted of one girl, bless her, she did her best to juggle reception, cooking, serving and trying to stay calm at the same time. I am sure I booked a twin en suite but the bathroom / toilet had to be shared, which I really did not expect even for this rate ( 90 gbp pn)

Plussat: None

Miinukset: Shared Shower room. Single bed. Thin curtains, Noisy traffic and single glazed windows, worn out bed, no reception, I received a blank look from the girl who showed me to my roon when I asked her for a vat Receipt and when the receipt came it was hand written without a vat number and was calculated with a vat rate of 2.5 percent.

Plussat: Leeanne was extremely helpful and gave us a continental breakfast at 8am (even though breakfast wasn't due to be served until 9am) on the Sunday to allow us to get to the event we were attending. Room was very clean and adequately furnished for 1 night

Miinukset: Was a bit basic if you were staying longer than a few nights as the wardrobe and chest of drawers were quite small

Plussat: The front desk lady was nice, insisted on carrying my bag upstairs.

Miinukset: Though we only noticed one other room occupied, we were put on the very top floor, 3 flights of stairs. The information about how close you are to the centre is pretty off - told a 15 minute walk, it took 45 minutes and we don't walk slow or anything...

Plussat: Cleanliness of bathroom ensuite is adequate, however outdated windows brought a lot of cold wind inside the bedroom. Carpet and sink clean with clean bed sheets. Complimentary biscuits and tea in bedroom were beneficial.

Plussat: Friendly and helpful staff,good service, good conditions

Plussat: The room is big and clean. Breakfast is acceptable.

Miinukset: A bit far and some parts are still under renovation.

Plussat: the central location and the ease of convenience

Miinukset: the staff were not too welcoming. the initial smell of cooking odour was over powering

Plussat: The staffs are very friendly and helpful, the room was clean and spacious, breakfast was good.

Miinukset: Not in the city centre, but there was bus stop right outside and takes only 10' to get to the centre, so not really that big of a problem

Plussat: The breakfast was good.

Miinukset: The clerk of the b&b was not very friendly. Charge for everything. We booked a double room and later found we just need a single room. So we canceled the double room and rebooked the single room immediately. The hotel charged us all the rooms w/o refund.

Plussat: you get house feeling in this hotel as this is more like a house than hotel.

Miinukset: Very Shabby, small bathroom, bare wires on the light, would not recommend this hotel.

Plussat: Staff very helpful I had to complain to the staff about initial room given to me as it was not acceptable shown below, 2nd room allocated clean and tidy facilities good coffee, tea T.V. room quite comfortable breakfast very good.

Miinukset: On arrival initial room allocated to me was not acceptable it did not have a shower or a toilet you had to come out of your room to go to the toilet this was not acceptable by me also the room did not have a window - very closed in and there was no wardrobe to hang your clothes in or a mirror to look and tidy yourself up - not impressed at all I do not think this room should be given to anyone and definately not at £60.00 for the night.

Plussat: The room was very large with clean, comfortable beds. Great internet as well. The breakfast was good as well.

Miinukset: It was a bit far from the town center, but there is a nearby bus stop that makes it easy and quick to get there on bus 22.

Plussat: Huone oli oikein tilava ja siisti, henkilökunta ystävällistä, suht rauhallinen sijainti, aamiainen ok

Plussat: Close to town. Good breakfast. Very comfortable bed.

Miinukset: No hairdrier in the room. Only one working socket. No shower wash.

Plussat: Friendly and Helpful Staff.

Miinukset: Everything was dirty, we had to ask for pillow cases, toilet roll and hairdryer, shower was tiny, bathroom was cheaply made, bathroom door did not shut neither did the 'wardrobe' door.
