Dalmahoy Hotel & Country Club

10/10 Excellent

"magical "

Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The best of both worlds, a modern hotel conveniently located in Edinburgh’s Old Town. Very walkable to major attractions. We had an air conditioned castle view room (not all rooms are air-conditioned!) with a great view, but on the weekend the Grassmarket area is really hopping until the small hours, so it can be pretty loud. Hotel staff are very friendly and accommodating, amenities are good however the restaurant was closed for part of our stay so can’t comment on that. If you are driving, there is very limited parking behind the hotel through an alleyway, we were fortunate to get a spot. We would definitely stay there again when visiting Edinburgh. Good value for money and excellent location."

Aparthotel Adagio Edinburgh Royal Mile

10/10 Excellent

"The location is everything! Really nice kitchen. Good use of a small space. I wish I had brought my own toiletries. No conditioner provided. Body gel/shampoo had strong smell. Towels were rough, but did the bob. The shower half wall-helped create a daily flood. We couldn’t keep the spray contained. "

Leonardo Hotel Edinburgh Haymarket

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is very convenient for Murrayfield and Haymarket train station. We had a triple room which was spacious, clean and very comfortable. The shower was great, too. We chose to have the buffet breakfast included in our stay. The food was tasty and really did set us up for the day. Would definitely stay again when visiting Edinburgh."

Holiday Inn Edinburgh by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Front desk guys were very welcoming , friendly and helpful! The staff in charge of the kitchen not so kind , they were somehow rude to help when asked a question During breakfast time . Good location. Not so close by foot to the city center, but easy access by buss which stop it right outside the hotel. We had a great stay overall. "
