Motel One Edinburgh-Royal

Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean, excellent breakfast, excellent staff."

YOTEL Edinburgh, Select by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice and clean place. In a decent location to walk to things and staff will order you a taxi. Breakfast was okay, appreciated their bar and kiosk area. I had four people in a double and bunk bed room and it was a good size"

Braid Hills Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Nice place to stay"

Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at the Leonardo was perfect, the staff was so helpful, it's in a great location to get anywhere in the city, and the place felt quite quiet for being so centrally located. So glad we added the breakfast every day, the selection was great and it saved us having to find new places to eat every morning during our week long stay."

The Scott

10/10 Excellent

"The staff couldn’t have done more for us and our furry companion. We can’t wait to come back. The cocktails are superb!"

Virgin Hotels Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"All was excellent! So clean and charming. Excellent location. Staff is very welcoming, helpful and attentive. Would recommend."

The Abbey Residence

8/10 Good

"I arrived very late. The staff were so friendly, and upgraded me from a single to a double room, I think because the single had gone to someone else. The bed was super comfy, I've never slept in a hotel room with such a comfy mattress before. The room was a bit run down, but clean enough. The breakfast was very basic, but good enough, and again the staff were very kind and helpful offering cups of tea or coffee. Very impressed for a two star hotel at the price I paid"
