Top Markinch Hotel Reviews

Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection

Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection

8/10 Good
"We chose this hotel for the location of the Tram and train services. The room was comfortable and mostly clean. The shower area could use a cleaning for mold. Amenities were minimal as compared to other stays in Scotland. The check in person was very helpful and pleasant and the common areas of the hotel were clean and well kept. We did not use the lounge or restaurants but they were welcoming. Overall we appreciated the location but were not sure it was worth the expense as compared with our other stays."
