My husband and I stayed at this hotel while vacationing in the UK in May 2008. The hotel is pretty good, but not great. The decorations are nice but somewhat shabby, the ceilings are very tall and impressive. The gentleman that greeted us when we arrived was extremely friendly. However, another woman that we dealt with was not as friendly... more

I booked to stay at the Kildonan Lodge Hotel after reading the numerous reviews on tripadvisor. I was not disappointed and was only sorry to be staying for just one night. I will definitely be back. Upon arrival, in the early evening, we were greeted by an extremely friendly and polite young lady, who gave us a thorough and helpful... more

We spent Aug 19-22 at this B&B. Generally speaking we tend to shy away from B&Bs because of unpredictable accomodations and service and prefer higher end hotels. However, given the festivals in town, hotels like the Scotsman were incredibly expensive especially given that we would be ultimately paying in US dollars. In any event, Room 8 (the green room with... more

We stayed three days in the hotel and had one meal there. Our room was spacious, very clean and with adorable furniture, even a small bottle of sherry to round up the great days we had in Edinburgh! Great breakfast offer as well, very friendly and helpful staff, excellent bus connection to the city centre. Restaurant Food is prepared with... more

I used Trip Advisor as the basis for booking most of the hotels we stayed in during our 7 week European trip. We are fussy travellers but, in the main, I've found comments on Trip Advisor to be accurate and very helpful. However, this time we must have been unlucky. We would not stay here again. The room we had... more

Management response from
KildonanLodgeHotel, Manager

We appreciate all guest feedback received as we constantly strive to improve the quality of our facilities and also ensure our guests have an enjoyable experience so that we maintain our friendly reputation. However I am at a complete loss with this rather unfair review and it makes me wonder whether these guests are confused with another hotel they stayed...

We spent a lovely wedding anniversary weekend in Edinburgh, staying at the Kildonan Lodge. We were given a cosy room at the back of the main house which was clean and bright and had all the amenities we needed. We'd read the reviews about the sherry but hadn’t appreciated that the decanter was filled daily - a nice touch! We... more

This small hotel is truly a 'home away from home'. We were welcomed by a lovely lady from New Zealand who couldn't do more for us. She was extremely knowledgable about what to do in Edinburgh and gave some great tips for bars and restaurants. We dined in Mathew's restaurant at the hotel itself on one of the evenings -... more

The location of Kildonan is very good to reach the city center in few minutes by bus. The accomodation is lovely, with comfortable rooms and a very good service. Take the chance of having dinner in the hotel because the Restaurant is also very good. more

Jul 8, 2008

We stayed for 7 nights and thoroughly enjoyed the friendly atmosphere, helpful staff, comfortable beds (although the rooms were a shade smaller than we expected) and an excellent restaurant. Our visit was mainly geared to visiting friends of long-standing so the Kildonan was a good choice as it is well situated for easy access to the City centre and the... more

Jul 8, 2008

This was our 2nd stay at Kildonan Lodge – so we must like it! The weather on this visit wasn’t as kind as the previous stay, but the Kildonan certainly did everything possible to make the stay just as enjoyable. As with our last visit we were greeted by our friendly Canadian who, again sorted out taxis and restaurant bookings... more
