9.4/10 Exceptional! (1,000 reviews)
Accommodation was faultless, room, decor and cleanliness unremarkable! We stay here ever year at this time and these are the main reasons, however we enjoy a nightcap in the bar but unfortunately when we returned at 2300hours it was closed due to staff shortages which ended our night earlier than it normally would.

The Palace and gardens excellent, however we had an afternoon tea at the Palace Cafe costing £38,00 for two and it offered very poor value for money, one of the worst afternoon tea experiences i have ever had.
3/5 - Okay

Very expensive for the amount of time we spent there
5/5 - Excellent
Verified traveller
Didn't go to Holyrood House, instead went to the Scottish Parliament building instead - free, and very interesting (about an hour in there max).
