Virgin Hotels Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent
"First Class experience from start to finish! The Virgin company, hands down, knows what they are doing when it comes to travel and hospitality, coming from someone who was once an executive of a 5 star luxury brand. Virgin Edinburgh was such a vibe. The whole aesthetic is sexy, sultry and ever so inviting. You are immersed in intrigue at every turn with the eccentric decor and vibrancy of color throughout the hotel. The staff, First Class from the moment we were greeted at the door, to check-in, the bar and each restaurant, to the housekeeping staff, excellence every step of the way. This brand does not miss a beat. We were celebrating two momentous occasions; 30 years married and my 50th Birthday and the thoughtful gestures extended were immensely appreciated by both myself and my husband. The hotel manager, unfortunately I didn’t get his name, even went as far as looking through several cases of whiskey just to find the certain numbered bottle my husband was looking to purchase. That in itself, to the extra mile, was above and beyond. Throughout our stay, there were so many of these little gestures that made my heart pitter patter and solidified my loyalty not only to this hotel in future travels but to the brand itself, Virgin. This company knows what personality makes the brand successful. Perfect location! Near Royal Mile & Victoria St. It’s on the higher price point but you get what you pay for. Book it! You won’t regret it!"
