Very much enjoyed our stay at this quirky but fun and charming hotel. The little red fridge was a really fun touch. The hotel was a bit confusing to negotiate but the staff was very helpful getting us to the right place. The location was great. We were able to walk to areas of interest.

I recently stayed at this hotel and had a fantastic experience. The hotel was just as described and lived up to my expectations. The location was perfect for exploring the city, with many attractions and restaurants within walking distance. What really made my stay stand out was the staff - they were super friendly, helpful and always responded quickly to any inquiries I had. Additionally, the hotel's app made everything incredibly easy, from asking questions to checking out. The hotel itself is beautiful, with a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere that made me feel right at home. I highly recommend Cheval Old Town to anyone visiting Edinburgh and I look forward to staying here again in the future.”

The Balmoral Hotel

New Town Edinburgh|0.62km from Scottish Genealogy Society
This is the most satisfying hotel in this trip. I hope I can stay a few more days next time. The hotel has a beautiful appearance and the rooms are large and Scottish-style. Compare the prices of five-star hotels in London that cost only one, two, and one night The Balmoral 5k per night is well worth it! It's also very close to Waverley Bridge, just on Princes Street. Nothing to say about the location

InterContinental Hotels - Edinburgh the George, an IHG Hotel

New Town Edinburgh|0.62km from Scottish Genealogy Society
This was our second time at this hotel and we stayed for almost a week. You can't beat the location on George Street, right downtown, close to shops and restaurants. The hotel is beautiful and the rooms and bathrooms are very nice. The king bed had a good mattress and pillows. There is a safe. They seem to have made upgrades since our last pre-covid stay, including air-conditioning in (all?) rooms. As you would expect in a big city, the rooms are quite small and the hotel is not exactly quiet; also depending on where your room faces. We were right by the elevator, which I generally don't like. I wonder if it's because we booked through our credit card and not direct. It seems there is sometimes a ”penalty'. The rooms are supplied daily with water, delicious cookies and snacks. You can make individual cups of drip coffee in a filter, which is much better than instant coffee but not as good as a Nespresso, IMHO. We had breakfast included and the Printing Press is just wonderful, for breakfast, any meal and later evening cocktails and whiskey. The Burr & Co is a coffee shop, also right next door, with tables outside. Love that place. The hotel has great service. We lost a suitcase and got daily support in checking on the status and changing the address on the delivery. There seemed to be a shortage on hair conditioner and we didn't have a sign for do-not-disturb the first day and got woken at 8 AM, but that didn't spoil our enjoyment of the hotel stay. We expect to be back.

Cheval the Edinburgh Grand

New Town Edinburgh|0.64km from Scottish Genealogy Society
We were soles tired right off the plane after figuring out that I had no license and could not get my rental car :( I took it well pouted and walked away. We took the Tram to St Andrew's Square. We needed to be in The border lands in Peebles. We stopped at the Edinburgh Grand. The men at the desk couldn't have been nicer! They called a taxi service not once but twice! They held our bags and said that their was a bar upstairs we could wait at with a wonderful and sweet cocktail waitress and relax. They came and got us when he arrived. Carried our bags to the taxi for us. We will tell this story many times in the future and we will thing of them all fondly.

The hotel is very new, the decoration is rich in design, and the hygiene is good. The room is large, but the bathroom leaks. There are no latex pillows or thermometers. The location is at the junction of the old and new cities. There is a shopping mall downstairs, and it is very convenient to go to attractions.

Stayed her for three nights October 2022 with the Scotland Rugby League team prior to the Rugby League World Cup. What a great find this hotel was. Spotlessly clean and so very comfortable. Bedrooms roomy and the beds as comfortable as you can get. The food was excellent, and they catered for our every need. The breakfasts were amazing and the service was beyond reproach . Special shout out to our servers Chez, Shannon and the boss Karen. Could not have been better. A massive thank you and a great start to our World Rugby League Cup campaign . Defo use this hotel again.

The hotel has no breakfast, the service is very warm, the family room, did not book a night, went to the front desk and said directly to us. I left the checked baggage in the middle and returned to the room directly when I came back.

Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

Edinburgh Old Town Edinburgh|0.11km from Scottish Genealogy Society
Hotel was well located and very clean inside. Rooms made up daily. Breakfast was ok. Odd smell in bathroom - think the drains are not right. Main issues - bathroom extractor fan continuously on -annoying. The doors to other rooms slam noisily and some awful motor/generator out back of hotel also causing constant noise. Hot rooms; window only opens a crack. Overpriced for what is essentially a marginally polished premier inn.

Kick Ass Greyfriars - Adults Only - Hostel

Edinburgh Old Town Edinburgh|0.13km from Scottish Genealogy Society
Studying at the University of Edinburgh, due to the lack of suitable accommodation in the past few days, here is a transition, the girls in the four rooms, the facilities are very good, the bathroom is a little narrower, but still can be adapted, the front desk brother is very enthusiastic, Especially Doug and Zander, the roommates who live together are also very friendly, can practice oral English, the hotel is in a good location, it is very convenient to go to the main business district, the kitchen tools are more complete, you can cook your own food, the amazing youth travel! But to book in advance, the girls are very popular among the four!

We stayed as a family of 4 in the family room the night before my husbands 40th Birthday. There was a cake and decorations in the room on arrival and we had the most stunning view of the castle! We used the pool and then out for dinner in Edinburgh at night. We enjoyed the hotel breakfast the following morning. Overall we loved it and will hopefully make it a yearly tradition.

No1 Apartments Edinburgh - George IV Bridge

Edinburgh Old Town Edinburgh|0.22km from Scottish Genealogy Society
This is a lovely self-catering apartment. We were in Apartment No.1 (on the second floor) for 3 nights, and the location was excellent. About 10 minutes from the Princes Street tram station, and right off the Royal Mile, directly next to the Elephant House of Harry Potter fame. The kitchen was fully equipped, including an all-in-one washer/dryer. Since we had booked direct, there was a also a bottle of Prosecco waiting for us in the fridge. The bedroom was a little small but very comfortable. Shampoo and body wash is provided, but not hair conditioner, fyi -- though the shampoo was so great that ended up not being an issue! The late night street noise was a bit much, so best to bring earplugs. There is free luggage storage on the 3rd floor available the day you check in and out, which will be accessible with the keycode they send you prior to check-in. Do be aware there are plenty of stairs and no elevator, but that wasn't an issue for us. Management was very responsive to any questions. Also you can pay a little more for an early check-in, totally worth it if you have a flight that arrives in the morning.

The real thing matches the picture perfectly! The host sister was super considerate and prepared fruits and candies🍬 to welcome us! The kitchen supplies and tableware are all complete, and those who cook will be happy! There was only a double bed, and there were three of us. One boy slept on the sofa. We communicated with the landlady in advance and got permission to prepare an extra quilt! The water flow in the toilet is very strong and the hot water supply is sufficient. An additional heater in the bedroom is enough, and there is no problem with the heating in the living room! The location is really great, just around the corner from Edinburgh Castle

I've never stayed in a hostel before, let alone in a former jail revamped as one ! Besides the gimmick, the Court is a wonderful place to stay if you are visiting Edinburgh, whether on a budget or not : fantastic location near the St Giles cathedral (where city tours seemingly start from), super friendly staff and surprisingly clean amenities (first time experience in a hostel so I didn't know what to expect quite frankly). Would definitely recommend !

Amazing stay! Went to Edinburgh as a surprise for my husband's birthday. The staff went out of their way to make it special and even came to the room to wish him Happy Birthday, along with a card and prosecco! They were friends, welcoming and informative. A beautiful, modern hotel and they really have thought of everything (milk in the fridge, tea, coffee, water etc). Would highly recommend and will definitely be back. Thank you for making our stay extra special.

This is a good place for backpackers. We stayed here for a couple of nights in a 12 bed dormitory. The beds were good with ample space to keep our stuffs. Toilers were clean. The receptionists were friendly and approachable. The check-in time is 2 PM, so if you arrive early, you'll need to wait in the locker room and help yourself to some coffee. Or else you can keep your bags in a locker and roam around the city till you are ready to check-in. Early check-in is also available, but subject to availability of beds/rooms. Overall, quite good.
