Prestigious Apartment in the heart of Edinburgh

Haymarket

"The location was very good especially for buses and trams. The flat was nothing special, in fact it was very poorly furnished, cheapest of furniture, no tissues, no paper towel, no cloths to wipe the counters or bathroom, two tiny containers of soap and shampoo for two people for an entire week. Give the minimum and pay the maximum. Also, asking for more money as an excuse to get access to the key box was the final straw. I will NEVER rent with Altido or Joivey again."

Top St Leonards Hotel Reviews

Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was very nice and helpful. Clean room. Thank you for the complimentary champagne bottle in the room. Breakfast buffet was one of the best we’ve ever had."

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

8/10 Good

"Nice property, modern feeling. The room was a good size, comfortable bed. The hallways were hot and the carpet had a bleach spot. Some of the woodwork needs to be touched up with paint. The bathroom sink drained quite slowly. Staff were friendly and accommodating. The bar area and restaurant were very good. The Sunday roast was excellent and reasonably priced for the quality. The location was convenient to walk everywhere, but there is climb to get to New Town. Overall, I’d stay there again,"

ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge - Royal Mile

10/10 Excellent

"El hotel muy bien ubicado. El staff muy servicial y atento. La habitación, la cama, bastante comoda. Si eres americano o latino, recuerda llevar adaptador electrico, no tienen. Y solo hay una salida de USB lejos de la cama. Unico inconveniente."

Britannia Hotel Edinburgh

8/10 Good

"Breakfast okay. Regular English options. Room cleanliness needs work, a bit of a hoover and dusting around ends would be great. Shower curtain was mouldy at the bottoms so that was a bit gag inducing. Shower itself pressure okay. Room was noisy at nights as could hear the plumbing for everyone's shower. Constant sounds. 2 single beds, nice, clean sheets, comfy pillows. All in all okay for price and distance into Edinburgh was good. Within walking distance to Dean village if you have that on your check list."

Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection

8/10 Good

"This is an OK hotel in the heart of the downtown area. But be warned that you will have to park at least a 10 minute walk away so be prepared to walk your bags through the city center in order to check in and check out. The staff is friendly, but amenities could’ve been better."
