Boasting an enviable location in Edinburgh city center, the historic and chic InterContinental Edinburgh The George sits in the new town, close to Edinburgh Castle, Princes Street Gardens and Holyrood Palace. It features elegant rooms, a selection of events spaces and meeting rooms (including the magnificent Kings Hall) and a well-equipped gym. This Grade II listed building with its distinctive facade was first built in 1775 and has since undergone an extensive refurbishment project, transforming the majority of the bedrooms and public areas. The carefully-designed interior has created a sense of restored grandeur with simple detailing and the use of natural materials in a nod to its rich history. Each room features a flat-screen TV, free WiFi and an private bathroom, alongside welcome amenities and luxury Byredo toiletries. Free high-speed WiFi is also available throughout the hotel. The on-site restaurant, Le Petit Beefbar, serves the finest cuts of beef from around the world, as well as a menu of cocktails, spirits, soft drinks and coffees. The restaurant is open Wednesday–Sunday only, but the bar is open seven days a week from 12.30 until 11pm. The hotel cafe Burr & Co. is a local favorite, serving drinks and a selection of cakes, pastries, sandwiches, and salads. It is open 8am–5pm. on weekdays and 9am–5pm on weekends. A full room service menu is also available for guests wishing to dine in-room.

LOVED THE ROOM, STAFF AND HOTEL ESPECIALLY THE CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS, however the Noise outside our room which backed onto a lane really put a dampener on the stay, the scaffolders woke us up at 8am on a Sunday morning with very loud work right outside our room.
Very noisy lane outside the room nighttime people passing by and shouting and delivery trucks or vehicle passing by at all hours. Then early Sunday morning the scaffold workers started outside the room on the building opposite ours, they were putting up scaffolding, it was unbelievably noisy for a Sunday morning at 8am, it definitely ruined our stay. They were using power tools to attach metal poles and hammering and throwing metal poles around for hours, Noises though the night in the room, of flushing and water running and tanks filling all night. Breakfast was busy, staff were lovely but it was a little slow for the gluten free order, and my gf toast didn't arrive until i asked a second time, i was finished the meal and it was cold..

The location was brilliant. The hotel is old world charm and mostly comfortable. Staff were lovely, all over the hotel.
The size of our bathroom was really disappointing! IT WAS TINY! TEENY TINY! You couldn't swing a cat! We paid for a Premium King room and we expected a decent sized ensuite. I should have taken a closer look at that when I booked it. The room was a great size, and it was spotless.

Our room was lovely, we were also upgraded so it was very comfortable and the beds were fabulous! Welcome staff were lovely ad the concierge was very friendly and super helpful with our bags and belongings when checking into our room and leaving. We had a very delicious meal in the restaurant and it was 10/10.
Our breakfast that we ordered for room service. Coffee was not hot and although the breakfast was tasty it was limited and warm. We feel that no 'love had been put into the presentation'. 1 x slice of toast which our eggs were on and preserves were included but no toast to have with them. Given a 5 star hotel - breakfast should be 'top notch' especially when delivered to our room.

The location was amazing! The staff at the door were exceptional.
I did ask at reception for some milk and water and they said they'd oblige but I waited for ages to no avail!
