Cumberland Hotel

We had a nice stay with our family! It was nice that we could park at the hotel (but a very steep entrance and little space to maneuver). The rooms are fine, beds are comfortable. Be sure to try the 'traditional breakfast' if you are not from here. The city is a bit of a walk, but restaurants and the bakery are not far away.

Rooms were to cold for kids , parking had to pay extra wich was disappointing , Except that was good

The emplacement is not far from the centre of Edinburgh,15/20 minutes by bus.The owner is very kind and friendly,he gave us free hours for the car park.The room was small but for one night it’s not a problem.

Enjoyable stay in a clean and tidy hotel. We arrived late after a delayed flight, but the staff have left very clear instructions for how to access the room which we really appreciated.

Highly recommend this hotel. Staff were very friendly, rooms were super clean and comfy. Breakfast was delicious, just what we needed. Location is amazing and there was parking available. Wifi was great too, very fast. Definitely recommended to all.

We stayed here for two nights and paid around £515 in total. The room was clean when we arrived, and even though we got there before check-in time, the staff kindly let us store our luggage in a room with a security camera for safekeeping. Breakfast isn’t included, but there are different options available. We opted for the continental breakfast and enjoyed some oatmeal/porridge, which tasted good. I’m lactose intolerant, and the staff were very accommodating, providing a milk-free alternative. There’s also a buffet where you can help yourself to fruit, coffee, tea, boiled eggs, and more. The dining area was spacious and comfortable. My only complaint was with the towel replacement policy. The room instructions said to leave towels on the floor if we wanted them replaced, but this didn’t happen. When we asked about it, we were told we needed to put the “clean room” sign on the door for towels to be replaced, which was a bit surprising since, in other hotels I've stayed at, towels were replaced without needing to do this. The staff member who explained this to us wasn’t very friendly, but the rest of the staff were pleasant and helpful. The hotel offered complimentary Wi-Fi, and it was both fast and reliable.

A very cute hotel. The room had an English style. It is beautiful. The room is clean, and the bathroom is also clean. There is a bus stop right next to the hotel. You can get to the city center quickly, as buses run all the time. The only problem is the strange electric showers without pressure. Everything else is okay. DeusPixel

My son and myself stayed here for the Scotland v USA. Excellent location Staff where great and the bed was comfortable, would I stay here again ...... most definitely

We had a very large family room for 5 of us on the "1st floor"(for fellow Americans, that would be on the 2nd floor). Our room was bright and clean, and looked better than the photos I'd seen online. We happened to have a beautiful bay window view in our room, looking out to the road and to a nice view of the city and distant hills. I would stay here again! A lovely place to visit from the US. Some helpful notes: There's a bus stop right across the street and then also a very short walk away on the same side of the street, depending on which direction you're heading. I didn't find it to be noisy from our room. I slept well. Hotel is next door to a beautiful and large estate which is a former hospital and school for the deaf, now made into some private flats. There's a microwave on the ground floor near the reception/staircase for anyone who needs to microwave anything, especially for picky children. ;)

Affordable hotel to stay at! Location is good as there are buses and trams close by. Getting here from the airport was really easy. The breakfast was adequate. The rooms (including bathroom seen in the pictures below) was really clean and presentable. But room 1 (the one I stayed in) is not recommended for light sleepers. Noise from the reception and outside permeates through the whole room.
