The staff, including Nijinsky, went above and beyond for our 50th anniversary celebration. Good food at the Grande cafe, although service was a bit slow. Convenient location near planned activities and train station. Reporter rooms have amazing bathrooms.

Had an amazing Christmas stay at this hotel! The location couldn't be better - right across from the train station and within walking distance of all the shops and attractions. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. The breakfast was absolutely delicious, with a wide selection of high-quality options. The room was spacious and comfortable, with all the amenities we needed. The view from our suite was stunning, overlooking the castle and Carlton Hill. Plus, the spa facilities were top-notch.
The afternoon tea in the brasserie was a bit underwhelming. The finger sandwiches seemed like they had been sitting for a while and the fillings were uninspiring.

I recently stayed at this luxurious hotel and I must say, I was truly impressed. The location is absolutely perfect, with everything within walking distance. It's conveniently situated right across the street from the train station, making it incredibly easy to get around. The building itself is beautiful, combining classic charm with a modern twist. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making me feel welcome from the moment I arrived. They were knowledgeable about the area and provided great recommendations for restaurants and attractions. The room I stayed in was stunning, offering a beautiful view of the city. It was spacious, comfortable, and had all the amenities I needed for a pleasant stay.
This hotel is absolutely fantastic and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a luxurious and comfortable stay.

The location of the hotel is extremely convenient, situated right next to Waverley train station and close to shops and attractions. Despite being away from the crowds, guests can still enjoy the fireworks at the castle. The rooms are spacious and comfortable with lovely views. The breakfast service is impeccable, and the staff is personable and helpful.
One downside is that guests are charged for wifi access, which can be disappointing.

We loved how this hotel had complimentary whisky and GHD straighteners in the room, which were really thoughtful touches. Our room was large and always spotlessly clean with fresh towels every day. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly, and the breakfast was delicious with plenty of options to choose from. Plus, this hotel's location next to the train station made it super easy to get around this city.
Nothing.

Great location, close to transportation and attractions. The staff was friendly and helpful. Room was comfortable with a nice view.
The room was hot and there was no effort made to cool it down. The bed for the third person was uncomfortable.

The history of the property is fascinating, and it would be great for the staff to be knowledgeable about it too. The room was spacious, modern, and quiet, with a comfortable bed and pillows. The hotel is conveniently located right outside Waverley train station and in the town center. The staff were very friendly, and the toiletries provided were lovely. As a disabled guest, I appreciated the facilities and amenities that were accessible to me during my stay.
Felt extremely welcome, no complaints.

I recently stayed at this place and it is absolutely amazing. The location is perfect, right in the heart of things so everything was just a short walk away. The service is incredible, with staff who are always willing to help out with any questions or needs. The amenities are top-notch, with everything from room service to laundry service available. My favorite part was definitely the dining options – the food was so delicious! It was definitely a highlight of my stay here.
This hotel is an excellent choice for anyone looking for comfort and luxury. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone who wants to be pampered and treated like royalty during their stay here in the city.

Loved the authentic feel of the hotel and the spacious room. The club sandwich I ordered through room service was delicious, but unfortunately, they forgot my chips. The location was perfect with great access to nearby attractions. Despite the small hiccup, I would definitely recommend Scotsman. Overall I had a great experience.
