Tip-top, och aye!
"It was great, ideally situated very close to the train station & central to everywhere. The staff were friendly and very helpful. I didn’t eat there but others said it was lovely and breakfast smelt good. It’s where I’d choose to stay next time in Edinburgh. "

A verified traveller stayed at Holiday Inn Express - Edinburgh City Centre, an IHG Hotel
"I can't say enough good things about The George. After falling in love with Edinburgh last year, we returned to the city and the hotel who made our stay extra special.
The staff it wonderful and truly make you feel like you're home - whether they wish you a good day or welcome you back after a long day of walking up and down hills. We were greeted with smiles at every turn.
Rooms were spacious and comfortable. We had a lovely room that looked up to the castle. Great showers, great room amenities, and cozy beds.
We plan to return next year!!!"
