Hilton Grosvenor Hotel, Edinburgh, Scotland
February 20, 2008 Business Trip, Europe, Hotels (Hotels and Resorts) No CommentsAt the end of the main central street in Edinburgh, the Grosvenor Hotel is ideally situated near the main shopping and eating areas. At the bottom of the castle road, a small hike is required to see the castle and the nearby tourist attractions. But at long as you take the trip via the beautiful castle park, you will hardly notice. At the top of the castle road are several cheaper restaurants (Viva el Mexico, I personally recommend), as well and several other pubs and clubs.
The rooms in the hotel were a bit small for a Hilton hotel, but the beds were incredibly comfortable and the breakfast was delicious. A bar, as well as the restaurant is available in the hotel. The staff are helpful and the hotel is nicely kept. They also have no problem cooking a late breakfast for the heavy sleeper - as long as they ask nicely. But for all this, you pay a little more than your average 3-star hotel, so beware.
