Broughton

"Do not hesitate! This gorgeous 200-year-old 3rd floor flat is exactly as advertised. So much better than any hotel. Our family of 7 thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Great location near Calton Hill. Many restaurants within walking distance. The only caveat - there is no lift (elevator), so all guests must be able to climb 70 steps. Martin was an attentive and helpful host. So glad we chose this as our Edinburgh home base."

Top Roslin Hotel Reviews

Village Hotel Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay in Edinburgh with a first class breakfast buffet."

Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"We arrived very early from our flight and the room was not ready. We left our luggage with the front desk and went to check out Edinburgh. Went back in the afternoon to check in, then went back out for dinner, walked around some more, then back and a had a drink in the hotel bar. Was even able to bring my second drink up to the room. This hotel was awesome. The staff ALL of them were incredible."

Holiday Inn Edinburgh Zoo by IHG

8/10 Good

"The room was good, downstairs public washrooms ok .. the staff at the from desk were super helpful Great location ! Easy to get around Edinburgh.. close to the arena for concerts and super handy for the bus Overall a good experience…"

Dalmahoy Hotel & Country Club

8/10 Good

"Great location just outside Edinburgh with public transport links into the City. We had a double bedded twin room which was spacious with a good range of amenities. We made good use of the swimming pool & spa facilities. Breakfast offered a lot of variety. The only minor niggles were no after hours food options / room service. We tried ordering from takeaways but sadly they weren’t prepared to deliver that far out? There is a direct bus service into Edinburgh located on the busy main road outside the hotel entrance. A dedicated pedestrian path through the grounds would be useful to avoid having to walk on the road particularly when returning at night with poor lighting. ….that aside I would happily recommend this hotel."

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Castle view on the 5th floor. Right in the center of everything. We went for the Tatto & had a repeat each night going to sleep hearing bagpipes. Breakfast was great value for the price. Alot of food and convenient to have at hotel. Staff very friendly & helpful"

Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I loved this hotel because we were treated so kindly throughout our entire stay. The staff answered all the questions we had, and no request was too big. We were even allowed to check into our room in the morning when we arrived completely exhausted from a red eye flight. This was hugely appreciated. The hotel is in an old building. Edinburgh is OLD! They have kept it up though and we had a clean modern bathroom with both walk in shower and soaker tub. Nice bath products. We had a mini fridge in our room, and the bath towels and bed linens were lovely. Side tables for the bed and reading lights. The only tiny thing that could be done is to replace the carpet. Ours had stains on it. It wasn’t a huge room but big enough for us and our luggage. We had a quiet room not facing the view of the castle, which we preferred as we kept our windows open. The breakfast was incredible. We could choose from a hot and cold buffet, and we could order a main breakfast item from the menu. There was a coffee machine so we could have cappuccino (and I could get decaf) every morning. Such a treat for us as we never go out for coffee. I would highly recommend staying here. It is also perfectly located to walk the entirety of Old Town and New Town and everything in between. Stay here and you don't need transport (unless you don't like to walk). PS their staff could give a course in hotel hospitality!!!"

Britannia Hotel Edinburgh
