Top Butterfly and Insect World Hotel Reviews

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

8/10 Good

"If you need parking…it’s very limited. The location of this hotel is great to explore Old Town by foot. Sits right by many pubs/restaurants which can be touristy, but again…great location!"

Carberry Tower Mansion House and Estate

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice place. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Room was small but it worked"

Melville Castle

8/10 Good

"A beautiful, historic castle outside Edinburgh. Room was very nice--bed comfortable, bathroom clean and roomy enough. Restaurant in the basement is a "must do." Steaks are cooked over a wood fire. Food was superb. Only negative was that I learned if you don't book directly with Melville Castle then breakfast is not included. I used a Expedia to book, so no breakfast included, which didn't seem right given the room prices. Overall a great experience. My wife and I would like to return sometime."

Best Western Kings Manor Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent helpful staff. They assisted with directions, bus lines and more. The breakfast was excellent. Had a lovely meal in the dining area. The cappuccino in the restaurant/bar was excellent. Every staff member was pleasant, friendly and helpful."

Premier Inn Edinburgh A1 - Musselburgh

10/10 Excellent

"the property was well situated for travel to Edinburgh, but the Restuarant had been sold and was closed. Also some of the staff were borderline rude."

Premier Inn Edinburgh A1 - Newcraighall

10/10 Excellent

"Great shopping and pub nearby"

Dalhousie Castle

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful property!"

The Abbey Residence

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was so helpful, accommodating us and our hectic schedule. We would highly recommend a stay at the Abby!"

Cosy cottage located 25 minutes from Edinburgh City Centre

8/10 Good

"A lovely little cottage, spotlessly clean and the owners Victor & Corina were so friendly, welcoming and helpful with anything we needed.Edinburgh city centre is only a 30 min drive. However, I would strongly recommend getting the train from Eskbank to Edinburgh Waverley (city centre). Eskbank is only a 10 min drive and the train journey is only about 25 mins and at 12 return for 2 adults is brilliant and easy."
