My stay at the Radisson Blu was mostly enjoyable, with the location being absolutely perfect. right on the Royal Mile and close to many attractions. The staff were polite and helpful, making my stay feel more welcoming. However, I did encounter a few issues. like a dusty carpet in my room and a dripping shower head that could have been better. Overall, I had a pleasant experience, but there’s definitely room for improvement.

I had a comfortable two-night stay at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Edinburgh, enjoying its central location on the Royal Mile, close to many attractions. While the room had a pleasant view, it was a bit on the smaller side. I encountered a hiccup when my late-night meal in the bar wasn't great, but the staff were fantastic in addressing my concerns. Breakfast the next day was a highlight, offering a better experience overall.

I had a lovely long weekend at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Edinburgh. The central location made it easy to explore the area, but my initial check-in experience was somewhat rocky as there was confusion about my room upgrade and breakfast inclusion. Overall, the spacious and clean room, along with a good breakfast, made my stay enjoyable, although there were some minor issues with dining choices and room amenities.

However, I found the cleanliness lacking, particularly in my room, and the service didn't meet my expectations. Overall, while the hotel has some good features, I don't think it's worth the price for what I received.
