This is clearly not a 5 star property. We were really surprised when we got there and saw the tiny room, the bed was as hard as a wall, the bathroom wasn’t spotless. Honestly not a chance this is a 5 star.

We'll be back!!

The best stay in the most gorgeous hotel! We couldn't have asked for any more, lovely room, spacious and plenty of facilities. We requested parking which was lovely and secure tucked around the back and a reasonable price considering how close it is to the city! If you stay I would recommend going to the bar, amazing rooms with stunning decor.

The Bonham is in a perfect location and the staff is very friendly. The rooms are a good size. Our only complaint was with the house keeping staff. We left our room at 8:30 am and our room was not cleaned when we returned at 3. This happened 3 times during our week stayed

Absolutley lovely one night stay at The Bonham! Location, while not central, was an easy walk to the main attractions and convenient to Haymarket station. We also found a great pub five minutes away tucked along a charming side street. The building is stunning with so many interesting design elements and the room was beautiful. We also really enjoyed the toiletries and the complimentary snacks! As Canadians who take our tea seriously, we love having fresh milk available in our mini fridge, a nice touch you don't see in North America! Truly enjoyed our stay, would certainty come back and recommend to anyone visiting Edinburgh!
