This is a great place to go for a nice drink, or meal. The staff are genuinely friendly and welcoming, and the food is good. We had a great Sunday Lunch there which is served from 12 - 8pm which is fantastic, and avoids that awful rush to get in before 2pm. Décor is smart, simple and comfortable, and you... More

This wonderful location is a great place to stay if you are planning to go to Edinburgh and don't want to go to a hotel in the city. A 20 minute ride on the train takes you directly to the center of the city and across the street to the tour buses. The train station is a short 3-5 minute... More

We stayed at the hotel for a business event 2 days and 2 nights. Everyone at the hotel was very accomodating and made us feel welcome. The food was lovely and the rooms were nice and clean. The hotel is in an ideal location for the station and the beach. We would definitely go back.

Everyone connected with this hotel really want to make your stay enjoyable. I recently attended a business workshop there and nothing was to much trouble. The food was great and the breakfast is wonderful, but all of this was far outweighed by the warmth of the greeting, the help of the team and the smiles as they served us -... More

The Royal Mackintosh Hotel is close to the centre of Dunbar, we arrived at about 2130hrs and found that the car park was fairly small but we managed to squeeze the car in somehow. Check in was quick and we were taken directly to our room which was a pleasant change to being given directions at reception. The room was... More

We stayed in the hotel on 26 April 2013 and we decided to take our dog with us also. When we got to the hotel the staff made us feel incredibly welcome. When we were going to have our meal, a member of staff, Amanda, said that she would look after our dog whilst we were eating. The hotel was... More

We purchased an Itison deal for a meal for 2 and have to say that it was excellent. The young girl who welcomed us and showed us to our table was delightful and created a great first impression that matched the rest of the evening. Dining room is beautiful and has an interesting history - food good and plenty of... More

When we arrived at the Hotel Mackintosh we were greeted by two very unfriendly girls, they remained unhelpful throughout our stay. We were shown to our room and it was fantastic, could not fault it at all, it was huge with a gorgeous view! The bathroom needed a good clean but still not too bad. We decided to eat in... More
