Hotels in Edinburgh Old Town, Edinburgh

It was 850meter walk upon arrival at Edinburgh Waverley train station. Through slopes, stairs and uneven roads. Heavy luhgage is strongly not recommended. Fast check in and check out. Great amenities with clean kitchen full with amenities. Toilet a bit small and could be dirty at times. No lifts so have to carry luggage all the way up to 3rs floor. Beds are comfy and clean. As it's bunk bed, so it could be quite disturbing when the other is moving inconsiderably vigorously.

I really enjoyed my four days. Wonderful hotel the team was very friendly and helpful at all times of the day. Great location easy to get to from the Station/airport. Good trams service along Princes Street. Plenty of buses along South Bridge which is a short walk. Enjoyed the spa facilities especially the swimming pool. The lounge near the reception area is a little chilly but a nice spot to relax with a warm drink. Overall a very pleasant stay. Would recommend. Rooms Good size room, fantastic shower and products. Bed was very comfortable. It was a tad cold so I requested a blanket which was very snug. Bonus having a fridge and complimentary water nice touch. Tea/coffee try was good but would be great to have some hot chocolate. Nearby activities Holyrood Palace and gardens on your doorstep along with great views of Arthur Seat. Five minutes walk to the Royal Mile. Food and drinks There is a restaurant and bar in the hotel. I found the food a bit hit and miss to be honest. Breakfast is great with a great choice in food for all palettes. Warm friendly service.

We booked a twin-private room. The room was small, so we had to put the luggage under the bed. If you want your room to be cleaned, then you have to book the room cleaning by scanning a QR code, 1 day before. We did it, but then no one cleaned our room. We told the reception, and they said they didn't receive our request. Hence, we had to re-book for the following day, and we told the reception as well. Only then, our room got cleaning. They cleaning was the basic one, emptied the trash bin, and refilled the toilet tissue. They wouldn't make up your bed. The hostel is strategically located, but to shorten the length, you have to take the stairs step (around 300m only). If you are with heavy luggage, then it will be around 700m from the train station (wheel-chair access street)

Room has no air con, and many steps up the lobby. Many basic amenities cost money (such as slippers) , parking additional charge at £10/nights Locations is good, Victoria street literally just outside of the hotel. Endinburgh Castle view is available from the main entrance of the hotel.

The location is excellent, very close to all attractions. The service was good; every staff member I encountered was smiling and very welcoming. The biggest problem was the strange, disgusting smell throughout the hallway and especially in the room. Despite ventilating the room every night during my stay, it still smelled fishy.

Great service, affordable price, and a comfortable stay. The hotel is very close to Edinburgh Waverley Station and within walking distance of many attractions. Special thanks to Cam for being incredibly helpful when I needed to store my luggage. Highly recommended!

The hotel has a strategic location, very close to all the major attractions in Edinburgh, within walking distance. The facilities are also very complete, and you can also cook yourself. It is really friendly for those of us who are not used to Western food. You can also taste fresh beer for free on the day of check-in. We checked out at 5:30 in the morning, and the hotel also asked us to prepare a portable breakfast. The service was considerate. Stayed for two nights in total and had a great experience!

This hotel is conveniently located near the city's train station. It has a front desk and luggage storage (for a fee of £3 per piece). Check-in time is 2 PM, and check-out time is 10 AM. The hotel is apartment-style, with spacious and clean rooms, each equipped with a kitchen, kettle, refrigerator, microwave, and tableware. However, there is no elevator, and the toilet and bathroom are located in the hallway. The front desk service is not very friendly to Chinese guests. If you don't mind the type of hotel when traveling to Edinburgh, this hotel is a good option.

Stayed at St Christopher’s Hostel, Edinburgh for a night and it was a good budget choice. The location is excellent, right in the city centre and close to the Old Town and main attractions. Check-in was easy and the staff were friendly and helpful. The dorm was basic but comfortable enough for a short stay. It can get a bit noisy, so earplugs help. Bathrooms and common areas were generally clean considering how busy it is. Overall, it’s a social, well-located hostel—great for meeting people and exploring the city, but not ideal if you want total quiet. Perfect for a short stay in Edinburgh.
