Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

8/10 Good

"Location was great! Stuff was helpful . However the bed was not comfortable and we saw some things on the sheets when we first got there that looked like burgers 😝"

Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh

8/10 Good

"Location is excellent... very convenient for shopping and near many popular restaurants. Room was rather small for 3 pax"

ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge - Royal Mile

8/10 Good

"Good room, but not as nice as my first stay..."

Braid Hills Hotel

8/10 Good

"Generally OK. Like too many other hotels there were no towel rails at all and just one small plastic hook on the bathroom door. This is for a double room ! No hooks at all in the bedroom. Nowhere at all to hang outdoor clothing ... especially if wet. Yet there were acres of wall space to fit something to ... if only 6" nails ! The devil's in the detail. Both hooks and rails are inexpensive !"

Apex Waterloo Place Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"My wife and I stayed here on our wedding night. The team went way above and beyond anything we expected! From complimentary prosecco and mimosas, to printing out a photo they took for us, we felt incredibly welcome - which was extra special to us as an lgbtq couple. Highly recommend this hotel, and many thanks again to the kind staff."
