I traveled to Edinburgh for a romantic getaway with my girlfriend and decided to stay at The George. Our stay was absolutely amazing. The location was perfect, just a short walk to Princess Street and Edinburgh Castle. The staff was friendly and accommodating, especially David the doorman who went above and beyond to assist us with recommendations and directions. The hotel was clean and the breakfast menu was delicious. We also loved the fact that there was a gym available for use. a fantastic experience.

The room was clean and comfortable, providing a relaxing space after a busy day exploring the city. the breakfast was fantastic, with a variety of options to choose from. the hotel's location was great, situated in a key area close to many attractions and amenities.

The bathroom was a bit small and lacked space to put our wash bags. It would have been more convenient to have a walk-in shower instead of a shower over the bath.
