paulwithcheryl 19/09/2021 TripAdvisor review

We found the hotel to be very clean and fairly recent hotel. All the staff we encountered were friendly, efficient, and helpful. SatNavs find it difficult to find with the post code, but it worked fine inputting the street address.

Very good hotel

Cymru74 15/09/2021 TripAdvisor review

Service was well below acceptable standard. Pre Covid we stayed here a lot, not sure will ever return. Met up with friends to celebrate a marriage & were all shocked by the poor service. Positive rooms have been revamped & looked very nice.

Dear Cymru74, thank you so much for your recent visit and please accept our sincere apologies for falling to make you feel welcome and to offer the excellent service you always received before. I really wish to make it right for you, so please, please send me your contact details to H6515-GM@accor.com, I wish to call you and remedy the situation. Also, we commit that no matter how hard the situation is at the moment, no matter how much we are impacted by staff self-isolations, we will continue to work hard to solve these challenges one by one and to make sure we deliver excellent service to every guest, every time. As we could see on this platform, we have made improvement, but we have a lot more to do to be more consistence again. We apologise once again and we thank you so much for your valuable feedback. Kind regards, Attila

Have had better visits - won’t rush back

Customer review rating 2.0/5

Mrs I. Families - 14/09/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Over booked & understaffed by the looks of things. Unable to have a meal on the first night as it was so busy, nvr ever heard to just eat to hotel before but here we are. Managed to have a meal the /nd night and had to wait for an age for service & our plates to be cleared. Asked for clean towels & toilet roll as we left our room on the 1st morning- returned that night to no clean towels, ran out of toilet roll by bed time. Never had that either in a hotel. Not sure I’d come back which is sad considering we have been staying here for 7 years. It’s not a cheap hotel so I expect far far better.

Dear Shelley, Thank you for taking the time to complete this survey, following your recent stay with us. I am sorry to hear that you were disappointed with the hotel on this occasion. It is very sad for us too, especially knowing that you have been returning to us over the years. Unfortunately, we are not living in normal times at the moment, and weekends are extremely busy for this hotel and others. We are trying our best to improve the quality of the services we offer and I am confident that this will show very soon. Last weekend was a particularly special one, as sadly we had two team members who had to go on self- isolation and this showed. We are hoping to recover fully soon, but it is a slower process. I hope that you give us another chance to serve you better in the future. Please if you decide to return, contact me directly on h6… so that I can personally look after every detail of your stay and provide you with an executive upgrade. Thank you for your feedback, please know that we are listening to our guests' needs and trying our best to work towards improvement. Sincerely, Daniela Front Office Manager

Excellent Stay, first time in Edinburgh

Customer review rating 4.5/5

Calvin S. Families - 14/09/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

The overall stay was brilliant. Check in was a breeze, and both the reception staff and the kitchen staff were very friendly and approachable. Rooms are nice and clean - although there is no air conditioning and we stayed during a heatwave so we were sweating at night. We really enjoyed the swimming pool, it wasnt busy so we were able to use it with ease.

Dear Calvin, Thank you for taking the time to post this lovely review for us. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your time with us and that you would recommend this hotel and this brand to others. Please allow me to assure you that we have a hardworking team, and we are all passionate about Hospitality. I believe this sets us apart from other hotels.

Very Disappointed

Customer review rating 2.0/5

Andrea Friends - 14/09/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Booked 3 rooms as gifts to friends that we had not seen for sometime. Arrived just before 2pm to be told that the bar was closed “due to self isolation “, I don’t doubt for a minute that this was a lie but no replacement was due & the bar would be closed until 5pm. So no beverage could be purchased. Didn’t start our get together off to the best start.

Dear Andrea, Thank you for taking the time to complete this survey. We are disappointed to hear that, on this occasion, you were let down by the service at this hotel. I understand that the service was below expectations and I would like to apologise on behalf of everyone in the team. Unfortunately, last weekend was a challenging one for us as we did have two staff members having to go into self-isolation unexpectedly. These things do happen and the only thing that we could do is to try and find a replacement as soon as we could. Our bar staff member had to leave shortly after 2 pm on that day, and we called a replacement to come as soon as possible. He arrived at 2.45, this means that the bar was closed for only 45 minutes, and open for the rest of the day and evening. I am sorry that this impacted your experience negatively. We will try and be better prepared in the future. We hope that you give us another chance in the future. Sincerely, Daniela Front Office Manager

Not impressed at all

Customer review rating 1.5/5

Anonymous Families - 14/09/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

I was at this hotel as visiting a terminally ill relative who is close by, room not ready on arrival, waited for quite awhile, only one key in envelope for room which did not work, new keys/card given after a wait, cost for car parking never mentioned even though I asked when booking, reasturant was not open on Saturday night, food choice a disgrace , tosties or hamburgers in the bar nothing else next to main railway lines and trams very noisey

Dear Adrienne, Thank you for taking the time to complete this survey, and for letting us know about your experience at Novotel Edinburgh Park. I am sorry to hear that your stay was not up to standards and that you were not impressed with the quality of service you received. I am surprised to hear this, as our team are known by their customer service. Please note that our check-in time is from 3 pm. I have checked the system and it looks like you were checked into a room at 3:05 pm. We work hard to make sure we have all rooms ready by this time, and if possible, even earlier than this, however this is not possible, particularly on Saturdays. Most guests want to check in as early as possible and check out as late as possible. We try to ensure that everyone gets to check in as early as we can, however sometimes there might be a wait. I will share your feedback regarding the service at the bar with our Restaurant Manager. We are listening to our guest's needs and feedback, since we want to work towards improvement and offer the best services and facilities possible. We value your opinion, and we hope to have you back for a better experience. Sincerely, Daniela Front Office Manager

cdstan2n 14/09/2021 TripAdvisor review

Nice hotel with friendly and helpful staff, ideal if you do not want the hassle of driving and parking a car in the city centre of Edinburgh. Comprehensive hot and cold breakfast buffet but items such as scrambled eggs are not very good when left standing for just a few minutes.

Dear cdstan2n, thank you for this wonderful 5 star review, we are very happy that you enjoyed our location and the quality of our services. We hope that you come back to Novotel Edinburgh Park many more times in the future! Sincerely, Daniela and the team

Reena Solo - 13/09/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

It was a good overall experience. I was there on self-isolation. The food was fine. The staff was obliging. I stayed there for 10 days. My only grievance was there was no provision to wash my clothes. Usually if you stay in a hotel like this in the United States, there is a free laundry service at least 3 times. But here they said that there is no such facility and that I had to launder them with the vendor paid services.

We are trying to work towards improving the quality of our services and facilities, and comments from our valued guests are always welcome and appreciated.
