Top Museum of Edinburgh Hotel Reviews

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

8/10 Good

"If you need parking…it’s very limited. The location of this hotel is great to explore Old Town by foot. Sits right by many pubs/restaurants which can be touristy, but again…great location!"

BrewDog DogHouse Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"On our trip through London, Edinburgh, Amsterdam and Paris, Brew House Dog House was the stand out stay. Putting my love of Edinburgh aside, the hotel itself feel exclusive, the private guest lounge was neat, even though we didn't use it, and the restaurant makes a great breakfast, a mean cappuccino, and great dinner, which we ordered to our room a couple times because we didn't feel we were missing out by eating in. The loft apartment is unique, roomy, and highly functional for what will be a longer stay next time. The staff were all courteous and the one beer I did have was a delight"

Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

8/10 Good

"Staff here are very kind and helpful. The room although small was everything we needed and the bed was comfortable. Our room was at the back of the hotel so it was also nice and quiet. It was very close to great restaurants and bars and within easy walking distance to all Edinburgh hot spots. Perfect location if you’re staying in Edinburgh."

Apex Waterloo Place Hotel

8/10 Good

"Beautiful hotel, but the facilities need upgrading. The showers were slippery and dangerous. The room was so hot at night despite temperatures being cold for the season of travel. But the hotel was located in a great spot so I can't complain too much since I only needed it for a place to lay my head. If I was there for the hotel specifically, I might look elsewhere. Would stay again for location alone."

Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"near the train station, very nice"

Aparthotel Adagio Edinburgh Royal Mile

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent, would highly recommend for the Fringe festival"

Hilton Edinburgh Carlton

8/10 Good

"It was a lovely hotel, but for the price would have enjoyed a better view. We were looking at scaffolding out our window. Otherwise wonderful"

CODE - The Court, Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean pod. Remember to take USB or USC for charging your device"

Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection

10/10 Excellent
