Intercontinental Edinburgh The George

We had a magnificent weekend stay at The George in early April, 2024. We booked our room through the Hotel Collection at American Express, and were stunned to be upgraded to a suite on our arrival (thanks The George, thanks AmEx!). Our room was large, with a large living area separate from the bedroom. The appointments were tasteful and attractive. What a wonderful place to spend a holiday weekend! The quality of the accommodations was equaled by the excellence and graciousness of the hotel staff. The front desk staff were friendly and welcoming. Our concierge, Andrew, gave us excellent dining recommendations and made reservations at restaurants as well as the spectacular Edinburgh Castle (incidentally, every time we saw Andrew he was wearing a kilt on his 6' 5" frame!). The hotel has a perfect location in order to explore all that Edinburgh has to offer. We are very grateful that we chose to stay at this wonderful hotel and will happily return.

We loved our stay at the International right from the start everything was first class. It’s in a great location for exploring the city, great amenities, and great staff. Scott the concierge really made our trip by recommending things to see, and places to eat. We took out our friends who recently got married on their honeymoon for dinner which he arranged and had a glass of champagne for us there we were. We can’t thank Scott and the rest of the staff enough for being so welcoming I will be staying here if I’m back in Edinburgh.

Stayed here on a Saturday night for our anniversary. Fantastic location with shops, restaurants and bars all within comfortable walking distance. Tram stop close by as well. Although in the city centre, noise was minimal during the night. Beds were comfortable and our room was perfect for our needs. All the staff were excellent, attentive and polite. We had drinks in the afternoon, service was very friendly. Breakfast and food delicious and room service prompt and polite. Would definitely recommend.
