"Edinburgh is very chaotic/touristy on the Royal Mile and this was right in the chaos, however, it felt very safe & the room itself was very spacious, clean & worth the price for it all. I had to contact them once for directions and they answered right away and were super helpful. It sucks there are stairs you have to carry your luggage up and the luggage room was on the first floor, very small/crowded & right next to our apartment room door, but it didn’t seem to get too loud or an issue when...

Top Church of St John the Evangelist Hotel Reviews

The Hoxton, Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Loved that these are historical old town homes. Very charming. Easy walk to a main tram line to get into Old Town in just a few minutes. Mini M&S just by the Haymarket station and a larger full M&S just a few minutes away."

Britannia Hotel Edinburgh

8/10 Good

"Con este precio en Edimburgo todo ha sido bien."

Apex Waterloo Place Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely hotel in a perfect location for visiting tourist sites, shopping areas & socialising, spacious bedroom with large comfortable bed & all the amenities you could wish for, loved the toiletries, the duck is a nice touch, water supplied in fridge appreciated as was the coffee and biscuits, all staff we met were friendly, good breakfast (full Scottish was tasty) but continental also provided, would recommend this hotel"

Point A Edinburgh Haymarket

8/10 Good

"Overall I was quite happy with our stay at Point A. I’ll start off by saying the staff was wonderful and friendly and helpful. We loved our room and the bed was very comfortable. The location is great. Close to Haymarket and no more than a 15-20 min walk to all that Old & New Town Edinburgh has to offer. My one complaint that prevents me from 5 stars across the board is this. In other hotels I’ve stayed at in the UK, coffee and tea has either been available to hotel guests all day, or there has been a kettle in the room to make tea. After a day of sightseeing I wanted nothing more than to head back to my room and enjoy a cup of tea in front of the telly. Instead, I had to pay for tea in the lobby. Other than that one little thing, I’d stay at this hotel again the next time I’m in Edinburgh."

Wilde Aparthotels, Edinburgh, Grassmarket

10/10 Excellent

"Great location close to things to see over all very nice place"

Market Street Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"It was very central, great sized room, clean"

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This property was wonderful... and the staff, even better! Great location! Would certainly stay here again in the future. My only complaint would be that the room felt a bit warm. I searched the room for a thermostat or way to adjust the temperature, but found nothing. Maybe I just didn't know where to look... haha! But my husband and I were able to crack the window to let in some cooler air. Also, there was a fan provided in the room."

YOTEL Edinburgh, Select by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Well appointed room. Excellent amenities and common areas. Modern and clean. Highly recommend."

The Caledonian Edinburgh, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent
