Top National Museum of Scotland Hotel Reviews

Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh

8/10 Good

"Very clean room and perfect room service"

CODE - The Court, Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"A great spot. My wife and Ioved the vibe of the place. Staff was friendly and helpful. The location can not be beat - right in the middle of the royal mile. It's small but clean. The codes and close is so cool. We got a free tour with our stay. We loved it here."

Apex Waterloo Place Hotel

8/10 Good

"T"

Market Street Hotel

8/10 Good

"⭐⭐⭐⭐ I stayed at Market Street Hotel for two nights and overall had a good experience. The location is excellent — very convenient and within easy walking distance of many of Edinburgh’s main attractions, restaurants, and transportation. The room was comfortable, although it wasn’t particularly large, so I wouldn’t expect a very spacious room. One thing I found inconvenient was the luggage space. For two people, there was only one luggage rack where you could open a suitcase, so it was difficult to have two suitcases open at the same time. Another unusual issue was the height of the toilet. It was noticeably higher than a standard toilet, and for someone of average height, your feet may not comfortably reach the floor when sitting down. This was quite uncomfortable and honestly not something I’ve experienced at other hotels. Overall, the location is excellent, and this hotel is a good option if being centrally located is a priority."

Hilton Edinburgh Carlton

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean, breakfast was fabulous, staff was very helpful, location was ideal. Steps from Royal Mile, and short walk to train station/bus stop/tram stop. Highly recommend!"

YOTEL Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were very friendly and helpful and hotel was up to date and clean. We had a lovely stay."

Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Our room was a wee bit small but the view was beyond compare! Excellent location: Tram from the airport and Waverley Station right across the street for the LNER ride to London"

Safestay Edinburgh Cowgate

8/10 Good

"It was my first hostel experience and I thought it was great. The location is excellent, and the staff are very attentive. The only downsides (nothing that would stop me from returning) were the noise in the hallways and the bathroom, which could have been cleaner. But I highly recommend it."
