The Bonham

I have been going to this hotel for over 20 years. It remains first class , great bedrooms and location with first rate and helpful staff . Perhaps the best breakfast in Edinburgh. Great location for central Edinburgh but with real charm. Always my first choice of stay

We have been visiting this hotel for years. It’s because it’s special to us as is Edinburgh where we honeymooned many years ago. We always try to book the Bonham. However the past few times it’s had a very different feel to it. This hotel is outstanding with location, decor, cleanliness and just an overall quality feel. The most important part of a hotel however is the staff and how they make you feel and The Bonham is now unfortunately lacking in that area. The man on reception on arrival can only be described as robotic. Absolutely no warmth or an attempt at rapport with us. The barmaid was friendly but on passing reception, the female receptionist made no attempt to speak. Saying good morning to the housekeeping staff was met with a very grudged hello. It’s such a shame because it’s a beautiful place but I think we will have to find ourselves a new “favourite “ Edinburgh hotel.

We stayed at The Bonham Hotel this past August into early September. Lovely hotel! One of the best we've ever stayed at. Attentive, friendly staff, nice, quiet, elegant bar/restaurant, and we especially liked the quiet, pretty, and still convenient off-the-beaten-path location. When we saw some of other other hotels located right in the heart of the busiest streets, we were so happy that we had chosen to stay at The Bonham. It's a small touch, but I thought it was nice that the housekeepers left the radio on playing soft classical music every time they freshened the room. I'd like to stress that we really appreciated the helpfulness of the staff, which was outstanding.

A very enjoyable stay at the Bonham to celebrate my 60th. Appreciated the nice touches from the hotel for my birthday. From the minute you walk in the front door, it’s obvious what a special place the Bonham is. Staff were friendly and attentive, service was excellent, room very stylish and comfortable, and the hotel overall provided a wonderful relaxed experience. Already looking to see when we can go back.

Lovely hotel and lovely bedroom, but dinner very poor. The service and the bedrooms are top quality. It's a shame that dinner is far from outstanding.
