It was a nice weekend stay with the hotel being very conveniently located within walkable distance to the Old Town and the main city centre and yet it was quiet and peaceful. Good dining options nearby. And the staff was very helpful and cordial.

Excellent property. Staff is friendly and very polite. Location is great! The only negative observation is that the Hotel does not have a restaurant or access to a computer lab; other than that, great stay.

We loved our stay at The Resident and would highly recommend it for anyone trying to go to Edinburgh and be close to everything but not have to wade through tourists when getting back for the evening. The location was perfect and the room itself was spacious, the bed was very comfortable, and the air conditioning worked great which was a must-have during the hottest week of the year!

Comfortable beds in a quiet area. The air conditioning didn't seem to work very well on warmer days and was turned off whenever we came back from a day out, but overall it was a cozy room.

This is one of the best hotels I've stayed in the UK (and I've been staying at quite a few 5 star hotels). The staff was professional, friendly, and accomodating. They def pay attention to details and ensure we have the best experience. Even provided me some of the best local recs and I was quite impressed (and this is coming from a foodie like me)
