I can't fault the hotel, the staff, the bar, the food or the price. Staff were young but knowledgable. Food was simple but delicious. The bar had inventive twists on drinks (Negronis with port replacing Martini Rosso? A hot chocolate with Remy Martin?) If you're looking for a hotel that is bang in the centre of Edinburgh, look elsewhere. This is in the beautiful area of Stockbridge, 20min walk or 5 min bus ride from Princes St. We'll stay here again. Loved it.

Hapimag Resort Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

This was one of the best hotels we have ever stayed in. We stayed in the Townhouse Suite which was larger than our London flat! By far the best value for money we have ever got from a hotel room. Staff were excellent and very helpful. The onsite "honesty shop" was also very well stocked with a range of food and drinks with a lovely lounge area to enjoy them in. We have already booked this hotel again for our next trip to Edinburgh.

Was super impressed, and to be honest, surprised by how lovely our stay was at Rooomz! We had been travelling around Scotland, with Edinburgh being our last stop and this place was great! Great location, parking easy, clean and comfy and friendly staff! Special shout out to both of the reception desk members we spoke to Friday night, they were so incredibly kind and helpful, giving us great recommendations on local music hotspots and just generally upbeat and happy to chat! Was really nice to...
