A really lovely hotel in the new town. The room was clean, really big with tea/coffee, nice toiletries and GHD hairdryer/straighteners. The staff were lovely and helpful. The food/bar were reasonably priced and breakfast was lovely. There is a nightclub in the basement, as we were on the 3rd floor this did not disturb us too much but I suspect if you are on the 1st floor this may be noisy.

Tigerlilly is an excellent hotel to stay in when in Edinburgh. I had an issue with my bill before arriving, and I received a phone call about it before our arrival. They had the wrong arrival date for us. Because we were coming in from the States, they asked us to book a night before. They charged us for an additional night. After I spoke to the woman at the desk, she said it would be taken care of. The day before checking out, I talked to the front desk and they told me that the day was split among the rest of the days that were charged. After I looked at my final bill when I got home, I saw that the charge was still there.

Have been trying to book this hotel for a while, it's a beautiful place and our bedroom was lovely. Unfortunately the shower was terrible but we got another room and it was perfect. The staff couldn't have been nicer especially Esther our waitress when we ate on the first night. Would go back but not room 3 unless they've fixed the shower!!!!

The good and bad. The staff are INCREDIBLE. Above and beyond. The room was large but it is dated and in need of care. The shower does not work. It puts out hot and cold water at the same time. There was hair all over the bathroom and dirt/sand? In the bed. This may be obvious to locals but it is INCREDIBLY loud downstairs. Like damage your hearing and the staff gets headaches after a shift. Seems quite unnecessary. There is no one to help with bags so be aware. It’s a cool hotel but I wouldn’t return.

We love it!

I have stayed here a few times and it is always superb, our shower and taps were leaking on this occasion and our curtains didnt fully shut meaning it was an early wake up!! But overall we love tigerlily.
