Old Waverley Hotel Reviews

The hotel is quite nice, especially in terms of its location, as it is directly opposite Waverley Station, making it very convenient for both business trips and travel. However, as the building is relatively old, there is no lift from the ground floor to the first floor, so you need to carry your luggage upstairs to reach the reception before accessing the lift.

A very central hotel. Next to Waverley train station. Clean and large enough rooms for 2 of us.

Very helpful reception staff both on arrival and during our stay. Breakfast first class and plentiful.

I enjoyed every moment of the trip! Even of I want to be critical, I cannot spot any problems to be mentioned! Thank you , Old Waverly Hotel!

Lovely hotel in a beautiful location. Bed was comfy and bathroom was massive! Could have done with a larger TV.

Very nice

Great location, non-Scottish staff let down the place, several tried to over charge. Including on check out, charged to my card before even before begrudgingly gave me the bill when I saw an over 30% overcharge. Could be really good with the right management and staff. Fittings tired and worn. Perfect location at the moment very overpriced

Excellent central hotel. Rooms well proportioned and very clean.

Waverly is a nice area and would stay again. Staff very friendly and convenient to city center with about 15 minute walk.

Central hotel, ideal location, nice and clean, breakfast very tasty and lots to choose from, staff very helpful and pleasant.

It was an old hotel right in front of the Scott monument. I loved the location, it was very convenient. The room also had a bath, which is rare for a room within its price range. Breakfast was rather simple, but was enough for me. I highly recommend.

The location of The Old Waverley Hotel is excellent as it is just across from the train station and within walking distance to the Royal Mile and other attractions. Our triple room has a beautiful view of the Scott Monument. But be warned that there is no lift so you have to lug your luggage up to the check-in lobby. Thankfully is a one small lift that brings you to your room thereafter. The hotel is in a very old building, service is very minimal, room is basic, there is no bottled water provided. This may be the standard for hotels in this part of the world. But what it lacks is made up for the location, accessibility and view from our room.

Fantastic location and good food,does have flights of stairs to enter to reception and unsure if has disabled lift to allow access to hotel so would advise checking if have mobility issues

Very good location. It’s easy to access old and new both town. Reception is first floor but no lift so if your luggage is heavy that’s gonna be hard to carry.
