Top Military Tattoo Theatre Hotel Reviews

Hilton Edinburgh Carlton

10/10 Excellent

"This is our third time at this hotel. We always have a great experience"

Virgin Hotels Edinburgh

8/10 Good

"Excellent location, modern rooms, clean. Quite a lot of noise from nearby nightclub in our room which was on the side of the hotel by Cowgate Rd, until 1 or 2am each night. Would try to stay in a different part of the hotel building next time to avoid this."

Wilde Aparthotels, Edinburgh, Grassmarket

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great, except for the hordes of North American guests who have absolutely no decorum or idea of the volume of their voices at breakfast. The room was bright, tidy and with excellent facilities such as kitchen and coffee maker. Special shout out to Sabina who basically planned my entire weekend in Edinburgh on arrival. Laundry app was useful but I didn't spend all my credit so I guess I'll have to come back and do some laundry at some stage in the future."
