Kildonan Lodge Hotel

Traveller Type: young couple
  : Excellent breakfast made to order. Very helpful staff. Location is so convenient with bus across the street into oldtown Edinburgh and ten minutes travel time. The lounge has a honor bar with drinks and snacks and lots of literature on Scotland.
  : Shower in our room was a detachable hand held and would not stay upright in the stand so you could get under it to shower. Also, rooms on front of hotel are on a noisy street. Otherwise, very good.

  : The property had character and was within easy distance to the City with the bus stop right outside the HotelThe breakfast was good plenty to eat and very hot. The staff were really lovely particularly Krystal who went out of her way to make sure our stay was good. it was our 25th Wedding Anniversary whilst there and we had a bottle of wine left in our room which was a nice touch.
  : The decor and furnishings were very tired, our room despite being an executive King was quite small and was on the lower ground floor. Had we known that we would have booked one of the bigger rooms upstairs but the Hotel had no vacancies for those rooms. The bathroom had the handle coming off, the ceiling light in the bathroom was intermittent (Krystal did try her best to fix it) and the reading light on one side of the bed did not work. Again Krystal was really good at trying to sort the lights and did tighten the door handle for us but these items really should have been sorted prior to anyone occupying the room. The room decor was very tired. However the linen and towels were very clean and White. The three flag poles at the front of the property had badly flaking paintwork the caps on two of them were missing and no flags were flying, this did not create a good first impression of the hotel.

  : Breakfast very good, including service.
  : Room decor was very tired and needs updating. Woodchip wallpaper peeling of ceiling. Looked like dampness in corner by window. Strip on edge of wardrobe coming off.Matresses on single beds pushed together were lumpy and poor quality. Overall very poor and certainly not 4star, probably not even 3star.
