Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I would not recommend staying at Regent House Hotel. Throughout the majority of our visit, we had no hot water and a toilet that didn’t flush properly. There were no staff available on-site, and it was nearly impossible to reach anyone for assistance. Post-trip, I tried to contact the hotel to discuss compensation, but all efforts were ignored and ultimately dismissed. A very frustrating and disappointing experience—especially when even basic amenities weren’t provided.

First visit to Scotland

The room seems to have had a recent remodel so it was pretty nice looking in good condition the beds are harder than a rock like all the beds here in the UK and everyone we've stayed at. The shower was leaking terribly in the corner by the toilet hopefully they see this review and are able to fix that. There is a large bump in the middle of the shower so you need to be very very careful getting out or you will fall through the glass door. Learning all the new handles commas which is, plugs has been interesting as it is our first time visiting the UK. Overall the hotel was quaint and quiet. Not handicap accessible I feel this is very important to know as we had to help elderly people get up the spiral staircase with their luggage.
Very steep spiral staircase period
Do not touch the metal thing hanging on the wall evidently it was a heater and extremely hot. Whomever stayed in the room before us did not turn the switch off the room was very hot.
Bottom of shower stall, bathroom extremely small.

We loved our stay here! It was very spacious for all five of us and clean and quiet. It had everything we needed and was walkable from everywhere we wanted to go. We loved the simple check-in and check-out process. We will definitely be staying again the next time we’re in Edinburgh!
