I had a mostly enjoyable time at the Angels Share Hotel. The unique Scottish-themed decor provided a quirky atmosphere, and the rooms were clean and comfortable. However, there were some drawbacks, such as limited breakfast options and service hiccups during my stay. Overall, I would recommend it for its charm but hope future visits see improvements.

I stayed in the Alex Ferguson room, which was lovely, featuring a comfy bed and a powerful shower. The decor themed after Scottish icons was a nice touch. I appreciated the large photo over the headboard, although it did take some space.

I loved the idea of including local specialties like haggis on the breakfast menu. However, I found the options limited compared to previous visits, and the kitchen was closed during my stay for renovations, which impacted my dining experience.

The hotel was modern and well-kept, but I did find that the atmosphere in the bar area could get quite loud at night, which affected the relaxation factor. Additionally, I had some issues with the heating in the morning that made for a chilly experience.

I had a lovely stay at the Angels Share Hotel. The location was spot on for exploring the city, being just a short walk from key attractions. The room was compact but well-equipped, featuring quirky decor and a comfortable bed. While I enjoyed the breakfast and the bar area, I did encounter some noise from a nearby construction site early in the morning. Overall, it was a good experience, and I would definitely consider returning.

I really enjoyed the breakfast, especially the French toast with spiced apple and maple syrup. The bar was also a highlight, where I had a few good cocktails while enjoying some live music.

While the bar area was a fun atmosphere for relaxing and socializing, I did find the access a bit tricky late at night since the doors close at 1 am. The staff were quick to assist when I accidentally found myself locked out.

I had a mostly enjoyable stay at Angels Share Hotel. The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, which made me feel right at home. However, the kitchen was undergoing refurbishment during my visit, and that impacted the dining experience, as some menu favorites were unavailable. Overall, I loved the quirky Scottish-themed decor and the hotel's fantastic location, but I did miss the breakfast menu from my previous visits.

The dining experience was disappointing compared to previous stays, as the kitchen was closed for refurbishment and many menu items I loved weren't available. Breakfast didn't meet my expectations, and I ended up needing to find a nearby Starbucks for my caffeine fix after checkout.

My stay at Angels Share Hotel was mixed. While the location was fantastic and the staff were friendly, the room left a lot to be desired in terms of comfort and cleanliness. I was disappointed with the breakfast selection and quality as well. Overall, while the atmosphere had its charms, I wouldn't say it offered good value for the price I paid.

I had a splendid stay at the Angels Share Hotel overall, but it wasn't without its hiccups. The location was perfect, right near key attractions, and the staff were super attentive, making me feel welcome. However, the room could've used a few more practical touches like bedside plug sockets and coat hooks. Overall, I'd say my experience was quite enjoyable, but there’s room for improvement.

Rooms

7.0

I stayed in the Emily Sande room, which was beautifully decorated but a bit small. The high ceilings and chandelier were stunning, but I wish there were more power outlets near the bed and coat hooks for my clothes. My partner and I enjoyed cozy nights on a comfy bed, but the room lacked some practicality.

The hotel’s location is unbeatable! It's a short walk to Princes Street and the Royal Mile, plus very near local bars and restaurants. Public transport options are practically at your doorstep, making it super easy to explore the city.

Dining

Breakfast was delicious with plenty of options; I loved the Eggs Benedict Royal. The bar area had a nice vibe with live music, adding to the atmosphere. However, I heard varying comments about dinner wait times, so that might need some work.

Facilities

While I enjoyed the facilities, the lack of air conditioning made it a bit uncomfortable during warm nights. Plus, some rooms might be affected by noise from outside deliveries, which could disrupt sleep. Overall, a solid selection of amenities.
