The Bonham

A most enjoyable stay was had at the Bonham. The room (104) was very comfortable indeed, and the staff were very helpful and friendly.

One of the most exceptional hotels I've been too. Beautifully decorated and furnished. I saw some people coming in simply to take a couple of photos! The rooms were stunning and the service everywhere was perfect. I didn't pay for this trip, and I can't imagine it was cheap, but I would very definitely recommend this to anyone going to Edinburgh and looking for a beautiful place to stay. The beds were large and very comfortable. Rooms were very quiet and, I was happy to find out, completely dark during the night - none of the usual "emergency exit" lights on, or any moonlight creeping in around the thick, warm curtains. The temperature of the rooms was also excellent and we never felt chilly or too warm at any point. The bar downstairs was also beautiful and a great range of wonderful drinks, which we made good use of. Just beautiful. Thank you Bonham hotel for a wonderful weekend.

Very nice hotel in great location. Arrived early and given room immediately (as it was free) without even asking. Nice touch. Comfortable room. Relaxed on exact check out too - very welcoming. Breakfast good but - as it was Sunday - a later cut off than 10.30 would have been nice.

My daughter and I stayed at The Bonham Hotel from December 14-18, and let me just say, that is exceeded our expectations in so many ways. The first thing we saw was a beautifully decorated hotel. It was like being in a storybook with a tale of a cozy and warm Christmas tale. At the front desk was the most pleasant and smiling man, who bid us welcome. As we arrived very early in the morning, our room wasn't ready yet, but they were glad to store all of our luggage and offered for us to freshen up if needed, and to join them for breakfast in the restaurant. We weren't hungry at that moment, and were very eager to go explore this marvelous country. The front desk manager (if that's the right title?) were happy to give us loads of pointers on where to go and what to see, and he gave us a map and circled in some places before we went on our way. We couldn't have asked for a better or nicer welcome. When we returned in the afternoon, we were once again greeted with smiles and friendly people. To our surprise, our luggage had already been brought to our room, and all we had to do was decide on wether we wanted to take the stairs or the elevator. We've stayed in many hotels but none as cozy and beautiful as this one. All the floors were paved with soft carpets, there were little pieces of furniture in the hallways, beautiful paintings on the walls and a pleasant sent all through the hotel. Then there was the room, and what a room. We had booked a standard double room but it was absolutely gorgeous, with a small entrance, a desk, two chairs and a small table, a mini fridge (with fresh bottles of water every day), a coffee maker, a TV, a bathroom, that even had a bathtub, and a large bed. To top it off, it had a beautiful chandelier and soft music playing from a little radio on one of the night stands. I mean, things sometimes looks way better in pictures but not this time. We were so pleasantly surprised, and the bed was actually way better than most hotel beds. Even the pillows were comfortable. The only thing we needed to change, was the double duvet into two singles but that was an easy fix. We had booked our stay with breakfast, and let me just tell you: weather you want the continental or the full scottish breakfast, you won't be disappointed, because everything is so well made, and everything from the little pastries to the eggs are just delicious. So much in fact, that we were kinda sad, that we weren't there for the weekend to try the evening menu. In the restaurant, we were also met by the kindest and most friendly staff. This was actually the case for all the staff. Even when we called the front desk and asked for a glass of cold milk at 10PM (my daughter really loves milk). On the day we left, we had a few hours from check-out to departure, and they were happy to store our luggage once again. They even called a taxi for us, without an additional fee, because we had to run an errand all the way across town. I could go on and on about how much we enjoyed our stay at The Bonham. From the perfect location in the most quiet part of this wonderful city, the decor, the nicest staff you'll ever meet, to the next level service and the best hotel breakfast (compliments to the chef) ever. If you're looking for a hotel, that makes you feel welcome and almost like home, this is the place you'd want to stay. From the bottom of our heart: thank you for making our first (but definitely not last) visit to Edinburgh and The Bonham hotel such a nice and warm experience. It couldn't have been any better. This was the nicest hotel in the nicest city, we've ever visited.

Enjoyed a super stay with my family. Lovely rooms and excellent breakfast. Staff are very friendly and helpful and the hotel is set in a fantastic location. We walked everywhere and Dean Village is located just behind the hotel. Will visit again!
