Market Street Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was amazing! From the minute you walk in you’re greeted with an amazing view of the city where you check in along with wonderful staff! They are the best!"

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

8/10 Good

"It is the perfect location to be in the city. I understand the age of the building, but there is zero AC in the rooms and the winds only open a couple inches. It’s VERY warm in the room. Also, the first room they gave us with our castle view was horrible with a giant wall obstructing the view. We requested another room and by the third try we had a decent view. Beware when paying extra for a castle view."

YOTEL Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"The location of the hotel is perfect for exploring Edinburgh on foot. The room was spacious and clean. The shower was particularly wonderful! There were good restaurants only a very short walk from the hotel. We stayed in a family room as a family of 4 and had a great experience. The staff was friendly and helpful."
