Top George Street Hotel Reviews

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

8/10 Good

"Very hot room and had to ask for a fan and still wasnt enough. Besides that, great ubication and excelent breakfast."

Radisson Blu Hotel, Edinburgh City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"The room was spacious and clean. It was also close to the sites so walking everywhere was very easy. I'd stay her again."

Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We loved the location on Grassmarket Square with easy walking to Edinburgh Castle and the Royal Mile. The desk staff were friendly and helpful. The room was well appointed and the bed and pillows were very comfy. Housekeeping kept everything tidy. Having access to a filtered water machine was greatly appreciated and the in room espresso machine was great. We had a small lounge area outside our room where we could relax and watch the world walk by below."

YOTEL Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"We had an incredible stay at the Yotel for 2 nights. Perfectly situated with the attractions of Edinburgh. Many restaurants choice close and many amenities directly at the hotel. Thanks for an amazing stay!!"

Garner Edinburgh Haymarket by IHG

8/10 Good

"Right across from a National Rail station, and the Edinburgh Tram and busses as well, which makes a huge difference for anyone visiting Edinburgh car-free. The 24 hour lobby lounge is a great place to decompress after a busy day out. The breakfast buffet at the pub next door has a full Scottish breakfast (which is like a Full English breakfast, but don’t say that out loud). The hotel was under some minor renovations when I was there, but the room was spacious, with plenty of power plugs (not always a thing in UK hotels) and remarkably quiet at night. The neighbourhood felt safe, clean-enough (for a busy old city full of tourists) and full of options for dining and shopping for daily essentials."

Old Waverley Hotel

8/10 Good

"clean room"

InterContinental Edinburgh The George by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Location & customer service 5 star"

CODE - The Court, Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel surpassed our expectations. Yes we slept in an old cell but that just gave it character. Emerson and Faith were extremely helpful. You can't beat the location as you walk out the door and in a minute you are on the Royal Mile. We had no idea it would be this convenient. It was a wonderful last night before heading back to the USA."

Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location and views. Clean, comfortable and great breakfast"
