Top Real Mary King's Close Hotel Reviews

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."

Market Street Hotel

10/10 Excellent

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

Old Waverley Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is located almost opposite Waverley Station. It is a well maintained old building which has been modernised and decorated to a high standard. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was served in a lovely light room and was substantial. The bedroom was spacious and as it was on the sixth floor it had a great view of old Edinburgh. Would definitely stay here again."

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."

Aparthotel Adagio Edinburgh Royal Mile

10/10 Excellent

"We had a very good stay at Adagio Aparthotel and were really happy with our experience. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. The location was excellent and very convenient for exploring Edinburgh, with many attractions, restaurants, and shops within easy reach. The apartment-style setup was especially convenient for our family and made our stay more comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful, and everything was well organised. Overall, it was a pleasant, comfortable, and hassle-free stay. We would definitely consider staying at Adagio again on our next visit to Edinburgh. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"
