Top Charlestown Hotel Reviews

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

8/10 Good

"1"

Britannia Hotel Edinburgh

8/10 Good

"Family rooms spacious. And quiet. Bathroom was clean but showing signs of age. Great location for Haymarket station"

Apex Waterloo Place Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Really nice hotel; very polite, friendly and helpful staff. Room was nice: it had a separate bath and shower. Made full use of the pool (small and oddly shaped, but sufficient for a dip), sauna (which was nice and hot) and gym (small, but top quality technogym equipment and more than enough to get a good workout. Breakfast was also good. Can’t really fault it, other than two single beds pushed together to make a double bed, but they easily slid apart."

ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge - Royal Mile

10/10 Excellent

"Liked it quite a bit. Clean room, friendly staff, easy access, good breakfast. If you're not familiar with Edinburgh, just know the front door of the hotel opens onto one of the busiest streets in the city. It's walkable to most everything. If you like busy, this is your place. If you like a slower pace that's off-the-beaten-path, look elsewhere. (Adding-- the room was quiet! No issue there.)"

Hilton Edinburgh Carlton

10/10 Excellent

"The location was perfect for exploring beautiful Edinburgh on foot. The hotel was modern, clean and our room fit the 4 of us pretty well by European standards. We were surrounded by great food options."

Holiday Inn Edinburgh Zoo by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Cool, nice"

Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Nice stay"

Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Great location - walkable to most everywhere in the city! Very friendly staff. Rooms are small but clean and comfortable."
