Booked this hotel based on the glowing reviews in Frommer’s Guide and on this website. Made it our home base in Edinburgh for nine nights. The hotel is in a five-story building in a lovely residential area. Only the ground floor and basement level are hotel rooms – the other floors are private residences. For six nights, we had Room... more

Exceptionally clean, friendly, handy for Princes Street and railway station. Loved the breakfast although we would have prefered it to be available a little later than 9am. The rooms & beds were comfortable. Would definitely return & recommend. more

The Walton Hotel, Edinburgh, Scotland is excellent. The staff are friendly and helpful. We had a wonderful room with a very comfortable bed (the best nights sleep in a hotel). The breakfast was very very good indeed. We only stayed two nights, but will be returning for a longer stay later in the year. The hotel is only a short... more

The Walton B&B in Edinburgh was charming, and the staff was lovely, very helpful, very spirited. They gave many good suggestions for dinging, shopping, etc. They offered to make arrangements for tours. Beautiful residential, quiet neighborhood. We payed 85 pounds per night, about $170 give or take with the exchange rate. It's Scottish owned and run. They offer a full... more

A cute and cozy small hotel with an excellent location in the heart of the city. We could walk to all the major attractions along Royal Mile and Pinces Street. The staff are friendly and the service is good. Defintely value for your money! more

Staying in Edinburgh can be a little expensive and often the blurb doesnt match the room you find yourself in. However, we found the real gem right in the city centre. The good: big room, great service, great location (about 5 minutes walk to Princes Street) great breakfast. The bad: none whatsoever! Im sure if you hunt around you will... more

The Walton is within easy walking distance to Princess St. and all of the shops/attractions of Edinburgh. Our family rooms were adequate and the staff friendly. Breakfast was on the skimpy side with just one egg, one piece of bacon and one sausage. At GBP145 a night I though it was a bit overpriced. more

Booked The Walton about a month before our visit to Edinburgh. Just a couple of days away to celebrate our 25th Wedding Anniversary. Tried to book a luxury room but none available. They offered me a triple room for the same price as the luxury room which I accepted. On arrival we were greated by a smiling receptionist but she... more

In response to the guest comments, we at the Walton Hotel would like to apologise for the mistake made in allocation when our guests arrived. This was a genuine error as we are not in the business of disappointing our customers - on the contrary - we pride ourselves in the warmth of our hospitality and to prove our point,...

If it were just based on friendliness, I would have given The Walton Hotel a five star rating. However, there is the quality and comfort to consider. This hotel is in desperate need of an updating in both furnishings and mattresses. Check in was a breeze, the front desk guy actually parked our car for us and pulled it out... more

Stayed at the Walton for 2 nights August Bank holiday; it is not really a hotel, is a B&B, but makes a good place to stay for a few nights (and reasonably priced,as well) Many plus points; good location, about 15 minutes pleasant (uphill)stroll to Princes Street (we are fat and unfit, so a fitter person would probably do it... more

In response to this guest's review we would like to sincerely apologise for an unhappy ending at check out to what seemed otherwise to be a rather happy stay with us here at The Walton. Furthermore we are lucky enough to have a lovely young lady as our new manager who won't let you leave unhappy from our guest house....
