The Argus Hotel food hygiene rating

Hotel/bed & breakfast/guest house · Edinburgh (City of)

The Argus Hotel passed its most recent food hygiene inspection. Scotland's scheme does not award star ratings, a pass means the hotel met the legal standard on the day it was inspected.

The rating: Pass

The rating dates from 28 March 2012, more than 14 years ago. A lot can change in a kitchen in that time, and a rating this old says more about the business then than now. Councils prioritise re-inspecting higher-risk premises, so a long gap often means the business is considered low-risk.
