Hotels in Edinburgh Old Town, Edinburgh

Facilities: Though small, it has everything you need. Cleanliness: Decent, I didn't spot a single dirty spot. Environment: Not great value for money, but because of its location, it's right in the center of everything. Perfect! Service: The front desk staff were polite and courteous, not at all like those other hotels that are said to be ****** against certain groups. Surroundings: Supermarkets, Chinese restaurants, convenience stores, tourist attractions all around the hotel. A few hundred meters to the left is J.K. Rowling's café and the castle. The Milkman网红店 (Milkman internet-famous shop) is right outside, the train station is downstairs, and a bit further are Princes Street Gardens and the bridge connecting the old and new towns. Basically, everything is about 10 minutes away, except for the sunset view which is about a 20-minute walk.

The room isn't huge, but it felt cozy overall. The two beds were enough for the three of us. It's not far from the train station, just a few minutes' walk after coming down from North Bridge. Plus, there's a shortcut behind the hotel that leads straight to the Royal Mile in a few minutes, which is super convenient.

The aparthotel was in a great central location only a walk away from many attractions such as Holyrood palace, arthur's seat, Edinburgh castle etc. It is off the royal mile. There are restaurants at your door stop such as chef bako where I tried a nice street style burger and fried mars bar. The check in was easy. They provide all the ncessary cutlery, there was some milk, tea, sugar coffeez salt and pepper available in the room. You can have daily room cleaning and can also do own laundry as there was a washing machine in the room. It is quiet and not in a noisey location. Negatives: I would say the set up of the toilet wasn't the best in terms of the radiator was really close to the toilet seat so if you were a larger person, you wouldn't comfortably be able to sit on the toilet seat. There weren't any hooks on the toilet door to hand towels. No shower holders in the shower to put shampoo or soap etc. The headboard rest isn”t needed as shortens the length of the bed so your feet come off the end of the bed. These rests are not detachable. Overall with a few adjustments in the room it would be better but I would stay there again because of the location.

The environment is nice and quiet, and it's very close to Holyrood Palace. The breakfast is rich and varied. However, I found the separate hot and cold water taps in the room a bit strange for this day and age. Also, it was quite impolite for the front desk staff to burst out laughing after speaking with a child.

This is a photo I took at my accommodation in Edinburgh. It was only about a one-minute walk from the station, and most of the main tourist attractions were nearby, which made getting around very convenient. The only surprise was that I didn’t realise it was a triple bunk bed when I booked it. I booked it without thinking much about the bed setup, so I was a bit caught off guard. As a result, I hit my head a few times! Other than that, everything was fine. Interestingly, the top bunk (third level) actually looked like the best spot.

The service was truly exceptional. My first stay was in Manchester, and the overall ambiance of the hotel was fantastic. My girlfriend and I really enjoyed it. So, when we saw that this apartment was available in Edinburgh as well, we didn’t hesitate to book it.🤩The Edinburgh Castle can be seen from the hotel’s entrance, and the street scene next to the hotel is also quite beautiful.

I visited Edinburgh over Easter, which was also my birthday, and had a wonderful stay. Magda was incredibly kind and arranged an early check-in before noon after I confirmed the day before. She also surprised me with balloons and chocolates in my room for my birthday, which was such a thoughtful touch. The staff provided clear information and gave excellent recommendations on places to visit, making my first trip to Edinburgh even more enjoyable. The hotel’s central location was perfect, close to all the main attractions, and the pool was a great bonus. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would happily visit again.

The breakfast at this hotel is absolutely delicious, don't miss it – it was probably the best breakfast we had on our entire UK trip. The location is also pretty good. The only issue we had was that we didn't know where the elevator was when we left the train station, which made us walk a long way around. It would be great if the hotel could inform guests about the elevator's location when they're coming from the train station.

Our room was a little bit smaller than we expected but I the sofa bed make it feels like that😂 It was great experience, not much spread for breakfast. Can’t decide what to eat because there is not much option for us. However, extra points for their friendly and very helpful staff. Thanks! Might stay again in future.

The location of the hotel is invincible (the house in the lower right corner of the second picture). Turn right after exiting the Market Street exit of the train station and walk for one minute. You don’t have to worry about carrying large luggage. When you cross the road, you will see Prince Street Park and Waverley Bridge (where the photo was taken). After crossing the bridge, you will see Prince Street. Turn right and walk for 15 minutes to Calton Hill. Turn right and walk for 3 minutes to the Royal Mile. There are many restaurants along the way. It is very close to the University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh Castle, and the Art Museum. The staff’s service is very good. When they meet people from non-English speaking countries, they will communicate with guests at a very slow speed. It is also very convenient to store luggage. There is also an airport bus at the door of the hotel.
