We chose this hotel for its location and it was great. Hotel is right at one end of Princes Street and we were able to walk or bus everywhere we wanted to go. Hotel is a bit tired but we had clean sheets and towels and a good sized bathroom - breakfast was fine. That's all we needed. Staff was... more

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!

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

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
