    Positive Reviews

    positive:

    Young and friendly staff.

    Those who stayed at Salisbury Green found the young staff to be very friendly and attentive, proving very helpful whenever the opportunity presented.

    positive:

    Bus, walk downtown, next to Holyrood Park.

    You will find the location to be very convenient for Edinburgh, located a 20-minute walk from the old town and the Royal Mile — or an even quicker trip by bus. People also appreciated being next door to Holyrood Park and Arthur’s Seat and said the free parking was also a plus.

    positive:

    Charming old building, comfy rooms.

    Guests considered the old mansion to be a charming and beautiful thing, with lots of details, quirks and personality, while the rooms were found to be clean, quiet, spacious and comfortable.

    Negative Reviews

    negative:

    No lift in hotel.

    A few of those who stayed at Salisbury Green would have liked to have had a lift to help with luggage, and while this seemed to only be a minor issue, those who are not so mobile should keep this in mind.

    negative:

    Rooms and surroundings not what expected.

    The modern interior of the rooms were not what some guests were expecting given the appearance of the exterior, while this university-run hotel is part of a campus complex, has its reception next door and a few people said it did not have the boutique feel they were expecting.
