We had such a great experience that we’re already planning to return.
The Thistle Hotel is perfectly located—just a short walk from the Christmas market, Princess Street, and Royal Mile. The convenience of being steps away from all the main attractions made our stay incredibly enjoyable. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout our visit, though we did have to leave the key at reception during check-out since no one was available. That said, it didn’t take away from the overall excellent experience. The hotel is safe, quiet, and well-maintained—ideal for travelers who value comfort and location. I’d highly recommend this place for anyone visiting Edinburgh.

Perfect spot for a weekend getaway whether traveling solo or with a group of friends. The location is unbeatable—right in the heart of Edinburgh, surrounded by great dining options and walking distance to all major attractions. The hostel itself is spotless and well-maintained, with a friendly, welcoming vibe from the moment you step in. I arrived late on Friday night, and Rayna, who was at reception, kindly paused her dinner to check me in, show me to my bunk, explain the rules, and give me a quick tour of the facilities—so thoughtful and warm-hearted. I’d forgotten my UK plug adapter, and instead of making me stress, both Rayna and Sarah let me charge my phone securely at the front desk. Huge plus! The bathrooms were clean, had consistent hot water, and even though the hostel was full, there were enough facilities that we never had to wait in line. The staff made the whole experience special—genuine, helpful, and always ready to chat. I loved the atmosphere, the community feel, and the attention to detail. This isn’t just a place to sleep—it’s a real home away from home. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Edinburgh.
Staying at this apartment was a disappointing experience despite the convenient location in Edinburgh city center. We were assigned to unit 3 in block 4, and while the view from the bedroom window overlooking Haymarket station was nice, everything else fell far short of expectations. The entrance was dark and filthy, with poor lighting making it hard to navigate. The apartment itself felt neglected—cleaning was inadequate, kitchen units were damaged, and walls had visible cracks that were only patched without repainting. There were burn marks on the bedroom cabinet, peeling paint on furniture and light switches, and basic fixtures like the bath plug were missing entirely. The bathroom radiator was rusty and grimy, floor tiles were cracked, and even the plates were chipped. It’s clear this place hasn’t been properly maintained or inspected in years—possibly not since the early 2000s. We requested a price reduction due to the condition, but our request was firmly denied. While the local agent handling key collection was polite and helpful, they had no authority to fix any issues. Overall, the quality doesn’t match the price, and unless you’re looking for a budget option with very low standards, I’d strongly advise against booking here.
Staying at the Four Points by Sheraton Edinburgh was an absolute highlight of my trip to Scotland. The value for money is outstanding—especially considering the level of service and amenities offered. Upon check-in, I was upgraded to a larger room and received a complimentary breakfast for two, featuring a delicious continental spread. The hotel's location is ideal: just a short taxi ride or quick metro transfer from all major attractions, including the historic Old Town, Royal Mile, and museums. Friendly staff, clean rooms, and a great atmosphere made this stay truly memorable. If you're visiting Edinburgh, this is definitely a top pick—I'd stay here again in a heartbeat.
Staying at the Britannia Edinburgh Hotel was a pleasant surprise, especially since it’s a bit outside the city center—though that’s actually one of its biggest perks. The hotel is tucked away in a quiet area with a large park right next door, perfect for morning walks. My parents loved strolling through the fresh air each day, and the peaceful vibe made our stay feel like a real retreat. A short walk takes you to Dean Village, which has such a charming, rural feel compared to the bustling city. The room itself was unremarkable but comfortable—nothing fancy, but clean, well-maintained, and had all the essentials. It’s not flashy, but it works perfectly if you’re after a calm, relaxing base. Plus, getting into the city by public transport is easy. Overall, this place offers a great balance between tranquility and convenience—ideal for travelers who want to escape the crowds without sacrificing accessibility.
Staying at Brooks Hotel in Edinburgh was an absolute delight from start to finish. The location is unbeatable—just a short walk from the city center and surrounded by great cafes, shops, and attractions. The staff went above and beyond with their warm hospitality and helpful tips, making us feel right at home. Our room was freshly renovated, with excellent heating and incredibly comfortable beds—perfect for a good night’s sleep after exploring the city. But what truly stood out was the Scottish breakfast. It was delicious, abundant, and full of authentic local flavors—think crispy bacon, sausages, black pudding, haggis, fresh fruit, and homemade jams. Every bite was satisfying and memorable. I can’t recommend this hotel enough. If I ever return to Edinburgh, I’ll be booking here without hesitation.
The hotel's location is incredibly convenient, with a bus station right out front—perfect for getting into downtown Edinburgh without hassle.
