Location is perfect. Comfortable bed. The refrigerator in our room was said to be more of a cooler than refrigerator however everything in it was warm. Not cool in the least. Asked for it to be checked 3 times but nothing improved. Everything else, however, was very nice. The food in the restaurant in the hotel was delicious. Staff were very pleasant. I would stay here again just for the location. ##### Jean Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Moxy Edinburgh Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Moxy-Edinburgh-Airport.h31718853.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Grand Hotel & Spa, Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Sheraton-Grand-Hotel-Spa.h15554.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Scots Club Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Royal-Scots-Club-Edinburgh.h900862.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Hotel Edinburgh Haymarket](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Leonardo-Royal-Edinburgh-Haymarket.h4035314.Hotel-Information) > > [Fingal - A Luxury Floating Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Fingal.h38753319.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Points Flex by Sheraton Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Four-Points-Flex-By-Sheraton-Edinburgh.h544658.Hotel-Information) > > [Cairn Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Cairn-Hotel.h64061.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Edinburgh-Marriott-Hotel.h873944.Hotel-Information) > > [Travelodge Edinburgh Central Queen Street](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Edinburgh-Central-Queen-Street.h4924301.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis Styles Edinburgh Centre St Andrew Square](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Ibis-Styles-Edinburgh-Centre-St-Andrew-Square.h7841147.Hotel-Information) > > [Ten Hill Place](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Ten-Hill-Place.h1535542.Hotel-Information) > > [Destiny Student Holyrood - Campus Accommodation](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Destiny-Student-Holyrood.h12691403.Hotel-Information) > > [The Caledonian Edinburgh, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Caledonian-Edinburgh.h4198.Hotel-Information) > > [Old Waverley Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Old-Waverley-Hotel.h24919.Hotel-Information) > > [The Balmoral Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Balmoral-Hotel.h9339.Hotel-Information) > > [Moxy Edinburgh Fountainbridge](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Moxy-Edinburgh-Fountainbridge.h64450784.Hotel-Information) > > [Point A Hotel Edinburgh Haymarket](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Point-A-Hotel-Edinburgh-Haymarket.h37166264.Hotel-Information) > > [Summer Stays at The University of Edinburgh - Campus Accommodation](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Pollock-Halls.h1083952.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard by Marriott Edinburgh West](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Edinburgh-West.h19218414.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Edinburgh by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Edinburgh.h3516.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express - Edinburgh City Centre by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Edinburgh-City-Centre.h1088215.Hotel-Information) > > [Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Mount-Royal-Hotel-Edinburgh-By-The-Unlimited-Collection.h802180.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Indigo Edinburgh - Princes Street by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Hotel-Indigo-Edinburgh-Princes-Street.h522038.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental Edinburgh The George by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-InterContinental-Edinburgh-The-George.h20436.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Edinburgh Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Edinburgh-Airport.h31618511.Hotel-Information) > > [Eden Locke](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Eden-Locke.h17859332.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Edinburgh - Leith Waterfront by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Edinburgh-Leith-Waterfront.h519940.Hotel-Information) > > [The Frederick House Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Frederick-House-Hotel.h201136.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard by Marriott Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Edinburgh.h15710648.Hotel-Information) > > [Kimpton Charlotte Square by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Kimpton-Charlotte-Square-Hotel.h571654.Hotel-Information)
