Disappointed

Lovely room but a bit dated and room was freezing when we got in (late should have been by 3 not in until 3.15) and heating in the room did not work they did try and fix but it still didn’t work they also offered to move our room but we would not have had a balcony overlooking the city so chose to stay had electric radiators and a blow heater but looked a bit tacky in a suite!!!

Great location but little things let it down

Great location . Staff were amazing . Room was ok expected better . Shower tray leaked onto floor in bathroom pillows provided were too soft although we did not mention this I’m sure they would have sorted this. Duvet was a bit thin for time of year. Just little things you don’t expect form a 5 star hotel

Great location, great friendly staff, convenient route to parking garage (once we figured out which elevator to use after being jet lagged). Room was very clean, had a great view of Calton Hill, wish it was warmer to sit out in the garden (not so much in January) but overall very pleased with hotel. One minor issue with the towel heater not working.

For a 5 star it sure is lacking a lot of the usual amenities. Didn't seem like anything was actually in the building itself, and the surfaces have seen better days. Everywhere you look there's paint chipping and carpet coming up. Pool was in the mall next door? It was our first time in Edinburgh, so we didn't have time to check but last thing I want to do is wander OUTSIDE and AROUND in my bathing suit and coverup to what seems to be a public pool. Bed wasn't very comfortable. Breakfast was not included and we couldn't get any sort of breakfast cocktail until noon. Also they charged us over $500 for laundry services when we clearly stated "no drying cleaning, regular drum washer/dryer services" for 23 pairs of socks among other necessities when you're traveling to 5 countries in 3 weeks. After having previous good experiences with using the laundry services in other hotels, I would highly suggest otherwise in Marriott branded hotels as they see nothing wrong with the exorbitant charges. They're not trying to make it easier for travelers, they're trying to make money. I would not stay here again. It is not worth the money.

Very nice hotel

The hotel was very nice, our room was very nice too. I have things to say…. There was a noise which was really annoying it was like a rumbling sound coming I think from the ceiling so above us sounded like trains, or a gym someone on running machine not sure but it was for rather a few hours went off about 12pm we were in room 68 so if I was to return definitely not go in that room. The bathroom needed a make up or shaving mirror, and def needs a socket to charge your mobile near the bed either side?? But the seating around the fire pit in bar area is a fantastic idea, we meet some fantastic people and we met each night for food drinks and great chats they were from USA & Australia we have exchanged contact details on the back of that area so well done Glasshouse - great location too so we will def return…. on this occasion it was our 46th wedding anniversary

I wouldn't recommend this hotel. The room was dirty. Bits on the floor when we arrived. Still there 3 days later. The bathroom bin wasn't emptied. The shower was never cleaned - we even left an empty shower bottle on the basket to see if it would be moved. 3 days it was still there. The free drinks in the mini bar - asked to swop them as they were ones we didn't like - told this is all house keeping have. No saucers in the room. the list continues ..... I have had cleaner rooms in a travel lodge.

Hotel staff theft

We only have one complaint with our stay. Other than that, all else was fine! We stayed the nights of 8th and 9th of November, in room 96. On the morning of Saturday 8th of November, my wife and went sightseeing and we returned later in the afternoon to find my headphones missing. They were brand new Apple Air Pods2 costing $220. They were missing from my laptop bag; someone had to open and sift through it to find them. In addition, someone had gone through my wife’s belongings too (lucky nothing was missing). We immediately reported the theft to the hotel duty manager. I was able to track the headphones and provided the various addresses to the duty manager (with real-time tracking). On the night of the 8th, they travelled from Edinburgh to approx. 45 miles away. Apparently, the hotel management investigated and could not determine if the staff had taken the headphones. Regardless, after we left only the housekeeper, and supervisor had entered our room. We know we didn’t lose them, and frankly, it was stolen from our room. We have reported the matter to Police Scotland. We will not be staying at another Marriot Bonvoy hotel, we expected a nice stay in our short trip, only to be ruined by this theft. In addition, we were not comped anything. I will be sure to spread the word that your organization hires criminals and thieves!!

Staff lovely. Very odd hotel in terms of lay out. Front room on the third floor, very noisy and cold. Air conditioning didn’t work and spent the night sleeping in a jumper. Staff were great in trying to fix it. Advised there were no other rooms. The hotel decor is tired and I wouldn’t rush to stay again.
