Top Military Tattoo Theatre Hotel Reviews

Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh

8/10 Good

"Very clean room and perfect room service"

CODE - The Court, Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"A great spot. My wife and Ioved the vibe of the place. Staff was friendly and helpful. The location can not be beat - right in the middle of the royal mile. It's small but clean. The codes and close is so cool. We got a free tour with our stay. We loved it here."

Apex Waterloo Place Hotel

8/10 Good

"T"

Market Street Hotel

8/10 Good

"⭐⭐⭐⭐ I stayed at Market Street Hotel for two nights and overall had a good experience. The location is excellent — very convenient and within easy walking distance of many of Edinburgh’s main attractions, restaurants, and transportation. The room was comfortable, although it wasn’t particularly large, so I wouldn’t expect a very spacious room. One thing I found inconvenient was the luggage space. For two people, there was only one luggage rack where you could open a suitcase, so it was difficult to have two suitcases open at the same time. Another unusual issue was the height of the toilet. It was noticeably higher than a standard toilet, and for someone of average height, your feet may not comfortably reach the floor when sitting down. This was quite uncomfortable and honestly not something I’ve experienced at other hotels. Overall, the location is excellent, and this hotel is a good option if being centrally located is a priority."

Hilton Edinburgh Carlton

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean, breakfast was fabulous, staff was very helpful, location was ideal. Steps from Royal Mile, and short walk to train station/bus stop/tram stop. Highly recommend!"

YOTEL Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were very friendly and helpful and hotel was up to date and clean. We had a lovely stay."

Garner Edinburgh Haymarket by IHG

8/10 Good

Kimpton Charlotte Square by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Such a great hidden gem and wonderful experience. Great location away from all the noise and sea of people in old town with amazing restaurants and bars right next door. BABA was phenomenal. Highly recommend."
