Very helpful staff, large comfortable quiet room in a very good location. Breakfast was not good and we stopped eating there after the first morning they need to step up the quality. Hotel is a lovely classic property they do need some new carpeting but it's a clean building. Again the staff and location are excellent. Rooms are very comfortable.

Obviously costs some serious money to stay here -- but so beautiful. Room was comfortable and spacious; best night's sleep we had on our UK trip.

Great comfortable room with ultra modern bathroom. EXTREMELY friendly and helpful staff. The location is absolutely ideal—close to EVERYTHING. My only complaint is that the elevator is old and slow and makes creaky noises, and there are some rooms that require a walk up a flight of stairs from one floor to the next due to all elevators not working, but if I were going back I would definitely stay in Thai hotel again above all others. This is my third trip to the city.

The location is excellent: very central and across from Edinburgh Waverley Train Station. Our room was grand in size yet so was the room rate. Common areas such as carpeting were worn and dirty. Ivor, the concierge, is a classy and knowledgeable Scottish gent.

Room was very nice! We were on the ninth floor so the water took a long time to get hot. Elevator is quite small and was very crowded at time. Great location.

An historic building, convenient to everything on the Royal Mile. Also its lower level entry is super convenient to arrival from the train station, literally across an uncrowded Market Street. Wonderful rooms with sunlight, tastefully appointed. The timely limited access will soon be fixed by a second elevator being installed in the hotel. The staff was always helpful (though the laundry lost two of my dress shirts). I enjoyed my stay immensely.
