Castle Park Guest House
Staying at Castle Park Guest House was an absolute delight! The hosts were incredibly welcoming and attentive, going above and beyond to make our trip comfortable. The room was spotless, well-equipped, and cozy—exactly what we needed after a long day exploring Edinburgh. Breakfast was a highlight: personalized to our preferences, with a wide variety of fresh options that made every morning special. Nothing felt rushed or forced—the care and attention to detail were truly evident. We’ll definitely be back, and I’d highly recommend this gem to anyone visiting the city.
Moxy Edinburgh Fountainbridge
This hotel exceeded all my expectations! The room was immaculately clean, with a sparkling bathroom that felt fresh and well-maintained. What stood out the most was the excellent soundproofing—no noise from the hallway or neighboring rooms, even late at night. I appreciated the small on-site lounge area with drinks available; grabbing a drink in the evening and enjoying it back in my room was such a nice little treat. The location is fantastic—just a short walk to the city center and close to public transit. It’s not just convenient, but also offers great value for money. I’ve stayed at many hotels across Europe, and this one truly stands out. I’ll definitely be coming back next time I visit Edinburgh—and I’d happily recommend it to anyone looking for a modern, comfortable stay.
Joivy at Vita Fountainbridge - Adults Only - Breakfast Buffet
The breakfast buffet was exceptionally well-rounded and delicious—plenty of options and great quality. The location is perfect for exploring the city on foot, with major attractions just a short walk away. The staff were incredibly helpful, responsive, and genuinely friendly throughout our stay. Being an adults-only property added to the peaceful atmosphere, making it ideal for a relaxing getaway without distractions. It’s clear that attention to detail and guest comfort are top priorities here. Highly recommend this charming hotel for anyone visiting Edinburgh.
The Hostel
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.
Leonardo Edinburgh Haymarket
Staying at the Leonardo Edinburgh Haymarket was a fantastic experience overall. The room was larger than expected, featuring a comfortable sofa that made it feel more like a home away from home. Cleanliness was excellent—everything looked fresh and well-maintained. The in-room amenities were thoughtful: a capsule coffee machine and a fridge made mornings easy and convenient, especially for that quick caffeine fix. Location-wise, it couldn’t be better—just a short walk to the train station and within easy reach of major attractions. There are plenty of restaurants and cozy bars nearby, so dinner and drinks are never an issue. The only downside is the cabinet above the tea station—it has a sharp corner that could easily cause injury if you’re not careful. It’s definitely a safety concern, especially when moving around with luggage or in low light. A simple fix like adding a soft edge cover would go a long way. Otherwise, this hotel offers great value and a welcoming atmosphere.
The Roseate Edinburgh
Staying at The Roseate Edinburgh was a truly memorable experience. While it didn’t stand out dramatically over our previous night’s accommodation, the unique charm of being housed within a historic castle made all the difference. The atmosphere is quiet and serene—perfect for unwinding after a busy day exploring the city. Rooms were clean, well-appointed, and surprisingly peaceful, with excellent sound insulation. The surrounding area is pleasant too—cozy cafés, local shops, and easy access to public transport make getting around hassle-free. It’s not just a place to sleep; it feels like stepping into a story. Great value, great location, and an unforgettable stay overall.
Britannia Edinburgh Hotel
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.
Village Hotel Edinburgh
Staying at Village Hotel Edinburgh for three nights was an absolute delight. The location is super convenient—just a short metro ride into the city center, and there are plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. The room was spotless, with a comfortable bed that made for a restful sleep every night. I especially appreciated the 24-hour fitness center—it's well-equipped and perfect for early morning workouts or late-night sessions. The on-site bar has a cozy, inviting vibe with soft background music, making it a great spot to unwind after a day of exploring. The common areas are clean and well-maintained, adding to the overall pleasant atmosphere. With its great value and excellent amenities, this hotel stands out. I’d definitely return and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Edinburgh who wants a comfortable, lively stay.
Piries Hotel
Since traveling to Europe has been a bit risky lately, I decided to go for the next best thing—Scotland. The Piries Hotel is perfectly located near Haymarket Station, just a short walk into the heart of the city, with trams and buses nearby. That said, the room was extremely basic and not at all what I expected when booking. It was also quite noisy because it’s situated right at the base of the stairs leading up to the upper floors. To make matters worse, the hotel charged me twice for the same stay—six weeks apart. I’ve reached out via phone and email, but they’ve refused to respond or explain what went wrong. Honestly, despite the great location, I can’t recommend this hotel under any circumstances. I’ve traveled extensively around the world and have never experienced anything like this before. It’s hard to believe this happened, and I’m left wondering if this is a common issue or just an isolated incident.
Four Points Flex by Sheraton Edinburgh
The location is unbeatable—everything worth seeing in Edinburgh is just a short walk away, from the castle to historic streets and museums. The staff went above and beyond with their warm, friendly service and genuine attention to detail. I felt welcomed from the moment I arrived. The room was spotless, well-maintained, and incredibly comfortable—perfect for a relaxing stay after a day of exploring. Cleanliness, convenience, and hospitality all at top level. This is exactly the kind of hotel I’d recommend to anyone visiting Edinburgh, and I’ll definitely be returning.
Edinburgh Grosvenor Hotel New
I truly miss this hotel—it was such a gem! Sure, the building feels a bit dated and the corridors can be a little maze-like, but the breakfast absolutely blew me away. It easily outshined what many higher-rated luxury hotels serve. The location is unbeatable—just a 3-minute walk from Haymarket train and tram station, with access to at least 20 bus routes. You’re never far from anywhere in the city. And on top of all that, it was incredibly affordable—seriously one of the best values I’ve ever experienced. This place felt like an old lady who’s lost her spotlight but still carries grace and warmth. I’m genuinely excited to see what the new building will bring, hoping they preserve the soul and charm that made it so special.
City Rooms Edinburgh
The location of City Rooms Edinburgh is excellent—very convenient for getting around the city by metro. The bed was comfortable, which was a plus. However, during our five-day stay, the room was never cleaned at all—even the bathroom remained untouched. The carpeted floor was another issue; it’s hard to keep clean and feels unhygienic. It’s disappointing, especially considering the price. I wouldn’t recommend this place, and if I ever return to Edinburgh, I’ll definitely look for a different hotel.
