Market Street Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"Excellent service, free drinks in the fridge are included with the stay"
ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge - Royal Mile
10/10 Excellent
"The hotel is a short walk from the Royal Mile.
The staff were friendly and helpful.
The food offered by the hotel is amazing and we went back for more.
We would definitely use this hotel again."
Virgin Hotels Edinburgh
10/10 Excellent
"Amazing stay at Virgin Hotels Edinburgh! The location was super convenient in the heart of the old town by Victoria Street, and it felt super safe. The decor was tasteful and had a bit of quirky fun personality, and the room was equipped with everything we could possibly need. The service from everyone was fantastic and a special shoutout to Connor who went above and beyond. We ate at Eve during our stay and the service there was incredible as well and food was 10/10. "
Leonardo Hotel Edinburgh Haymarket
10/10 Excellent
"Great location, close to everything. Clean room and felt safe the entire time."
Apex Waterloo Place Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"Nice sized room and bath, all in good condition. Bed was firm. Restaurant food was good- a convenient option, but there's better values within walking distance. Only complaint is that the coffee is horrible. However, we'd stay here again."
YOTEL Edinburgh
10/10 Excellent
"This property is a bit of a walk to the gorgeous royal mile and Edinburgh castle but if you like modern with a nice gym and excellent breakfast highly recommend. Rooms are well appointed and larger than your average European room."
Stay Central
10/10 Excellent
"The room was clean, nice and comfortable. I appreciate the front desk giving ear plugs since there is a bar on the side that does play music most evenings. The day staff was very friendly and had good recommendations around the area. It had a great location in the middle of the city and walkable to all the big things you want to see on your visit. "
CoDE Pod – The CoURT - Edinburgh
10/10 Excellent
"Absolutely a top pick of places to stay in Edinburgh! Convenient, safe, and definitely unique!"
Grassmarket hotel
10/10 Excellent
"The hotel was great! Rooms were large and comfortable. Bathroom was gorgeous. Staff were wonderful and very helpful (got us a cab). Restaurant next door had fantastic food. Location was great - lots of restaurants and shops In the city center of Old Town, just a few blocks from the Castle and other attractions. Town square has a Saturday market which was a delighter. When making a reservations, be sure to ask for a room that is accessible by elevator!!!"
