Hampton Hotel by Greene King Inns

Decided to visit for lunch a couple of weeks ago. I was met by a woman who looked like she was chewing a wasp and when I asked to sit outside rolled her eyes. Dumped our menus and left after 2 mins.

Lovely place to stay. Clean and tidy. Rooms are basic and the bed was extremely comfortable, slept really well. Shower is lovely and hot. We ate in each night and the food was really good especially the fish. I recommend the strawberry gin spritzer cocktail. The staff were so friendly and helpful I was ill on our second day and the assistant manager was very understanding and allowed us to stay in our room undisturbed all day. We go to bed quite early and we're not bothered by the music or sound from downstairs at all. We used the buses into town, really cheap and easiest way to get around.will definitely be going back as Edinburgh is amazing. Highly recommend the Hampton Hotel. ***** Lorraine and Kevin

Albeit I have only given 4 stars, this is still a very friendly hotel full of character. The staff are extremely friendly and the food is excellent. I dropped a star because since we were last here there has been no improvement in maintenance nor money spent on improvements! The room we were in looked tired ( as it did two years ago when I last reviewed it!). Shower door almost impossible to open and close, shower head bracket hanging off, toilet roll holder hanging off, mould all over the ceiling and a very noisy extractor fan. Needs new beds!! The worst thing was no room cleaning service (at£168.50 per night!) Having said all that if you can see past those things , the people are the same as were there 2 years ago and they are still as friendly and helpful. Breakfast is superb! This is obviously a very popular and busy hotel and I can only imagine that they do not want to close any rooms for refurbishment because they are so busy! I think they will have to soon! Come on Greene King, splash some cash!

Staff very helpful, breakfast was lovely. Would definitely stay against n.

Good food reasonably price. Property in a good spot not too far from city centre with regular buses to the centre, helpful friendly staff.

Only a few small parking spots avaliable on site
