Top The Braid Hills Hotel Reviews

Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection

8/10 Good

"We chose this hotel for the location of the Tram and train services. The room was comfortable and mostly clean. The shower area could use a cleaning for mold. Amenities were minimal as compared to other stays in Scotland. The check in person was very helpful and pleasant and the common areas of the hotel were clean and well kept. We did not use the lounge or restaurants but they were welcoming. Overall we appreciated the location but were not sure it was worth the expense as compared with our other stays."

Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

8/10 Good

"Right on Grassmarket is centrally located. Area wasn’t noisy which I didn’t expect. Room was clean, well appointed and kept up. Staff very helpful. Only complaint is that television selection wasn’t great. Not bad but not great."

"While the location was close to a busy thrufare and noisy from traffic, it was still worth the price. Close to everything, easy access to public transport, made getting around easy. My only problem was a washer/dryer that didn't work as it should have. Greek restaurant right at end of street was a WONDERFUL bonus."
