Lovely stay, staff were very accommodating and friendly. Rooms could do with a little refurb but can’t really complain given the price we paid to be in Edinburgh so was really good value for money. Breakfast was spot on too.

I accept dynamic pricing but in return for high prices comes high expectation. Two night stay, room not serviced , drink tray not replenished, dirty cutlery ignored. fire doors wedged open at night, v noisy service bay at night, even with demand pushing up prices, £300 a night for a small third floor room with no lift and no public space is pushy.

It wasn’t OK stay. It’s central, and the Room had everything I need. Not giving this five stars, because the cleanliness could’ve been a little bit better. There was a hair on my shower wall and some places where the facilities were clearly weathered. Skip breakfast IMO.

The staff was helpful. The breakfast was very good. This is more of a University property. Our window opened to a delivery area so was kind of noisy early in the morning. Our room was also Very small. And do note there is No elevator. We missed that and had to walk up multiple stairs with luggage.

Liked: Staff & service
Our stay was good. We had a few issues with our room but Emma the manager was fantastic! Super attentive and caring and sorted out our room issue super quickly. A bottle of Prosecco and ice bucket was left for us when we returned which was fabulous. The other staff were so friendly, I believe his name is Keith, (sorry if it’s not!!) Was so funny, informative about the local area and super helpful which was fab. My only real complaint is that the windows are super thin so the room can get quite cold at night and it’s very noisey on the front side of the building due to the local businesses, but that’s no fault of the hotel. Other than that, the location was amazing and the bed was super comfy. Thanks again Emma!

The staff need leadership and support

Having stayed here before, this should have been a convenient and hassle free stay before an early flight. There was an issue with the room. It was not addressed. After expressly asking for a new room we were moved to another location which was less suitable for our needs. It shouldn't have taken over hours for this to happen.

The staff at KM Hotel were top tier, very friendly and helpful. We were able to store our luggage until check in, as well as run a load of laundry at the end of our stay, which was very convenient. Breakfast was also delicious with lots of options for the buffet, and staff there were very accommodating as well. Only critique of the propery is that we were on the first floor directly above the entrance to the hotel looking over Richmond Place. It was quite noisy at night, between Uni kids hanging out smoking (the smell would get into the room with open windows, but was a little stuffy if the window was closed), and the trucks for the Lidl grocery store would be backing in in the early morning (aka loud beeps) . So I would recommend ear plugs if staying here. Very walkable to Old Town, the train station, even to Leith. Overall besides the noise, very pleasant stay!

4th floor, no lift. No airconditional. Breakfast is ok. But you have to pay it with room, not on the desk (expensive) Good situation, near old town.
