Very nice reception and easy check in . Friendly staff and very helpful , Estelle the young lady who checked us in even printed out the tram schedule and map for our trip to the airport. She even escorted us to our room on the main floor.Excellent location and on a historic street . Close to Princes street, shopping , and restaurants . Close to a city park where a movie Wicked was showing outdoors . The room was a nice size but the bathroom was rather small . One window would not open and the gentleman at the desk came immediately to try and open it but apparently it was painted shut during a refurbishing . At least we had one window to open for fresh air . The bed was comfortable and Wi-Fi was very good . We had an early flight to catch the following morning and when we left the porter helped us with our luggage and even walked us down the street with our luggage and pointed out the quickest route to the tram stop . Excellent service. We would definitely stay here again .

I stayed with a friend at the Albany Hotel in Edinburgh for 2 nights in June 2025. The hotel is in a quite central location, about 12 minutes walk from the main railway station. I had a single room which was quite small, especially in the bathroom you didn't have enough space to put your stuff on the sink. The room was very clean though. The staff at the reception was very helpful and friendly and our stay was nice.

We loved our stay at the Albany Hotel! I don't normally leave reviews but had a great experience :) The location is great (such a cute & calm street but also very central and short walk to everything we wanted to do (bars, restaurants etc.)). The staff were really friendly - every person we spoke to was incredibly warm, welcoming, and genuinely helpful. Everything felt so easy – from check-in to holding our bags the next day. Room was massive, very comfortable beds and very quiet at night. Overall would definitely recommend and will come back!

Hotel is excellently located and only a 5 min walk to the nearest tram stop on York Place and walking another 5 mins gets you up and onto Princess Street. Our only gripe was the cleanliness of our room ie 202. First off we found that the cheap looking plastic toilet seat was loose due to the left side securing plastic fitting being broken and due to the seat moving the area below the hinged fitting was extremely dirty. The sink mushroom plug wouldn't hold water and just drained away as you ran the tap. Over at the window a mass of wires which appeared to be redundant phone cables were just left hanging under the window sill and two cables ran down the wall with the wire ends just tucked away behind the radiator. The dado rail that ran around the room at waist height was covered in dust and obviously hadn't had a damp cloth run over it in a while. One of the drawers of the dressing table was absolutely filthy and again looked like it had been like this for a while. Knowing the hotel had just had a renovation not so long ago who ever signed off on the brackets holding up the curtain pelmet needs to find another job. The good points. The staff who worked the reception couldn't have been nicer and made us very welcome on our arrival and were very polite on the phone when I called to inquire about something before travelling to Edinburgh. As for the price I suppose it's due to being in Edinburgh but for £180 a night I'd have thought some sort of breakfast would have been included even if only on a continental basis. On our departure I informed the reception of our issues and it can only be put down to a serious lack of supervision by someone who oversees the cleaning of the hotel in all areas.

The photos are rather misleading - my room suddenly looked very tired and dated compared to the ones in the images. My window also didn't open and there was no air conditioning, so the room got incredibly stuffy. The room is comfortable even if it's not as fancy as the ones in the photos, and the hotel is in a good location, but it's over-priced for what it is.

A very pleasant stay, we arrived at the albany hotel because of a problem we had in another hotel and the receptionist joao was very helpful with the problem. He got us accommodation for two nights and was very professional and pleasant during the whole stay. He made our trip and stay amazing! Thank you so much joao thanks to your work it was one of my best stays ever. If I come back I will repeat! Ander R.
