Time Out "The four guestrooms above Paul Kitching's restaurant, which opened here in spring 2009, have the same visual panache as his celebrated cooking." Full review
Afar Magazine "21212 hotel is a regal and refined restaurant with rooms in Edinburgh, where grand Georgian design meets its match in the kitchen."
Fodor's "In a grand Georgian house, the restaurant is sumptuously appointed. Belle époque decor and quirky cultlery makes this a perfect destination for couples, who should ask for a romantic...window table." Full review
The Telegraph9.0
"Rooms that are as striking as the food, displaying a sometimes surprising but always sensual contemporary/baroque style and unexpectedly leafy views. A low-key location for a high-octane operation." Full review
Mr & Mrs Smith "21212 Restaurant and Rooms hotel in Edinburgh with its four rooms might be small, but it has loads on offer." Full review
Independent "Their vision was to marry the best of Scottish produce with refined, if slightly eccentric, hospitality, carving out a unique space in the capital. No one has done it better since."

Michelin Guide "Impressive former sea mens' mission, set on the quayside; the first of the Malmaison hotels."
Insight Guides "A superb renovation of Leith's former Seamen's Mission building featuring art deco styling, four-poster beds and a first class restaurant and Parisian bistro."
Rough Guide "Chic, modern hotel set in the grand old seamen’s hostel just back from the wharf-side."
Star Service "Located a 15-minute drive from the center (a long half-hour walk), this hotel cuts a fashionable figure in the longshoreman's part of town." Full review
Frommer's "It's a respectable part of the spruced-up waterfront, its brasserie and bar buzzing, with guests spilling out onto the cobbled street." Full review

Opt for a room at the front that overlooks the port
Lonely Planet "The stylish, award-winning Malmaison is housed in a 19th-century former Seaman's Mission in Leith."
i
Be sure to ask for a superior room at the front of the hotel, for extra space and a view over the river.

"An upscale boutique property with 100 rooms, Malmaison Hotel Edinburgh is housed in a former house of ill repute (yes, a brothel)." Full review
Time Out "The Leith hotel that kicked off a hospitality phenomenon." Full review
Fodor's "Once a seamen's hostel, Edinburgh's link in the pioneering boutique hotel chain draws a refined clientele." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"Works hard at promoting a sexy image, but is fun and comfortable too, with good-sized rooms, decent food and drink, friendly staff and even some token tartan to remind guests where they are." Full review
