Top Blackford Hill Hotel Reviews

The Caledonian Edinburgh, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Great experience, the hotel is in a perfect to visit the Castle and surrounding areas"

YOTEL Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing stay with amazing staff on a wonderful city. Well located and the free coffee/tea was a nice touch"

Virgin Hotels Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were great!"

Braid Hills Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room was a good size, and breakfast had a wide selection of food (hot and cold) available. I didn't have any issues while there, and the staff were pleasant. I'd stay again if I was in the area for work."

Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh

8/10 Good

"Excellent location in Edinburgh and well priced. Walkable to the Royal Mile. Moments to Waverley Train Station and the Tram. It’s central to Old and New town. Tip…to avoid walking up the “close” walk further down Jeffrey and hang a right and your right at the royal mile. To avoid sloped walk from old town to new go through Waverley. Lots of nice shops too."

Sheraton Grand Hotel & Spa, Edinburgh

8/10 Good

"Good location. Rooms on the non castle side hear garbage trucks early in the morning. Other than that I would be happy to stay there again."

Edinburgh Travel Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Very friendly team! Homey feel."

Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very friendly staff. Overly offered to help with our bags. We appreciated thr welcome drinks for booking through Expedia"

CODE - The Court, Edinburgh

8/10 Good

"The location was excellent, the food was good, the social aspect was unexpectedly fun. We are older than the typical guests, so my only negative is that we were in bed sooner than most and the elevator ding and doors clunking shut late into the evening took away from general sleep quality. But, if you want good value and superb location and a chance to mingle with travellers from all over the world, this is a good place to start."
