Bit of a let down this one. It's pretty basic student accomodation. The room was small which is ok. The furniture was primative. Four floors up and no lift. The worst thing was the en-suite. If you stood in the middle of the room you could touch all the walls without stretching. Smallest shower area I've ever used. You could... More

Was a bit worried this place wouldn't be great as it was originally student accomodation but it turned out to be really good - location, price and the cooked breakfast in particular. Staff were friendly and helpful too. Be aware there is no lift - request a lower floor if you don't want to climb too many steps! Previous reviews... More

Stayed here in Oct2011. Location was perfect - in a quiet part of town, about 10 minutes walk to the center of Edinburgh. Excellent breakfast, made to order and could have been the best hotel breakfast we had on our trip around Scotland. It feels like a former university dorm but that didn't bother us at all. But the room... More

The rooms are very good and basic, good reflection on the price. The breakfast is top class and worth every penny. Yeah the bathrooms could be a bit more modern, but what do you expect for the price.... There is a studenty feel to the place, but would rather people stay in a place that had a load of trouble...

Before booking a room at Kenneth Mackenzie, I wish I'd looked on here first. We were expecting a hotel but what we actually got was a very basic room in University accomodation. It was small but clean and the en-suite was little more than a shower cubicle with WC and a tiny and very low sink. The TV was way... More

A depressing experience. Although this is billed as a decent place it is hardly what you might expect if it is a genuine hotel you are looking for. Where to start? The reception area and breakfast room are round the corner so if it is raining you are going to get wet going between them and your room. There is... More

We stayed here for one night and it was very good value for money. Its pretty basic and not very fancy but at £59 for a city centre location with a good breakfast what more can you ask. We were going to a concert in the Queens hall so it was only about a 5 minute walk and there are... More

I'm in two minds about writing this review,one part of me wishes to keep this place secret so I can pitch up any old time and get a room-the other states I have a duty to my fellow travellers to let them know of this gem-Don't you just hate your conscience at times! 1.It's a university residence block-so rooms are...

Spent a lovely weekend at the Kenneth Mackenzie. The room was small but had everything you need for a stay there. It was quiet and central enough.. The breakfast was excellent with a great choice of fruit.We were able to leave our bags on arrival and also on our day of leaving. Great place to stay, we will definitely visit... More
