We loved the friendly front of house. Especially Chris he was great. He welcomed us with a warm smile and was very informative about things to do during our stay. We found it easy to chat to him. He was engaging and asked each time we saw him, what were our plans or how was our day. The hotel was lovely, the design and the room we stayed in was well put together. We enjoyed the location being away from the hustle and bustle of Edinburgh. The city center was easily accessed as the tram stop was located around the corner from the hotel and a tram direct every 6 minutes meant not waiting around. The little larder in Edinburgh do a lovely gourmet porridge. 😊 We also enjoyed an evening at the bar, the drinks were top quality including the cocktails !!!. We would quite happily come stay at Malmaison again.

The room was great, spacious with a very comfortable bed and bed linen. The bathroom also was spacious enough with plenty of storage. It is all very conveniently located and exactly what we required from an accommodation perspective.

A waterfront location in Leith. While not a city centre location the tram service is less than 5 minutes walk from hotel and costs just £2 for a ride into city centre. Relatively quiet but there are plenty of restaurants and bars within easy walking distance. The hotel is very comfortable, and I was able to upgrade my room to a suite for about £33 per night. The room was large and comfortable. The bar and restaurant are not as glamorous as some Malmaison's I have stayed at but very good nevertheless. THe food and drinks are reasonably priced and good quality.

Smoth Check-in and Check-out. Spare towels and pillows available for use in the room already. Room service menu was available. Free drink offered at check-in for giving up room cleaning service to be more eco friendly which i thought was a nice touch and as i was was travelling alone, i took advantage of this. Good Hot and Cold breakfast opions available.

Free car parking for a good standard hotel is hard to come by, so is a definite plus. The staff were very helpful and always said hello in the passing. When we made a request to the front desk it was attended to within minutes, which was also most helpful. Hotel was clean and has a lovely waterfront location. Easy access to good public transport into the centre of Edinburgh. Comfortable bed and pillows.

I thought the location and the building itself were fantastic. I loved the bed in our room Restaurant and chap working there early Friday night provided a great experience which is in stark contrast to the Bar Manager in the bar completely ignoring us because he had dropped something behind the bar instead of putting focus on a quick explanation of what he needed to do. Just looked surly and walked into back room behind bar. This was 6pm.on Friday btw.

The hotel is located in a quiet area but with plenty of pubs and restaurants. It is conveniently near a station on Edinburgh's wonderful cross city tram line. Access from the airport and into the city centre was cheap and easy. Leith has a lot of attractions for visitors like Edinburgh. I liked the option to not have the room serviced every day of our stay - in exchange for free drinks at the bar as an acknowledgement! The hotel wifi was fast and free. The hotel is housed in an interesting historic building.

The location on the waterside in Leith was lovely. There were many excellent restaurants and bars nearby. The area seemed quieter at the time I visited than the very busy city centre, this was a positive for me. The building, the former Seamen’s Mission was interesting and well-restored. Good choice of drinks and food in the bar and restaurant. Good service from friendly, helpful staff. Breakfast was plentiful and very tasty with high quality products. Took advantage of the offer to upgrade my room and was upgraded two levels.

The staff were very helpful and friendly, we enjoyed a lovely evening meal in the restaurant, special mention to Harshit who made us feel very welcome. The breakfast the next morning was excellent with a nice choice of hot and cold dishes. It was good that we were able to leave our luggage at the hotel when we checked out while we visited the Royal Yacht Britannia. We would definitely recommend.
