Top Military Tattoo Theatre Hotel Reviews

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."

Wilde Aparthotels, Edinburgh, Grassmarket

8/10 Good

"The room was very small and the bed was up against a wall on one side it was very difficult getting in and out of the bed especially in the middle of the night the TV wouldn’t let our phones cast to it someone came up to look at it and told us he would send someone to look at it but no one did. The location was good."

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."

Virgin Hotels Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel has a slogan that they say YES to everything, and that was true! Everything I asked for, they accommodated me. Everyone was incredibly friendly and helpful - from reception to concierge to wait staff at the restaurants to housekeeping staff. I loved every minute of my stay. The hotel is beautiful, and conveniently located at the top of the hill on the Royal Mile. Everything you need is within walking distance. The room was immaculate with modern touches. The bedding was super cozy. The rooftop patio had amazing views. The food in the restaurants was gourmet quality and delicious. They do have valet parking, which I highly recommend because otherwise you will be walking a ways to the parking lot. Highly recommended hotel, and I hope to visit again."

Motel One Edinburgh-Royal

10/10 Excellent

"Nice hotel and great location. Visiting in September, our room on the top floor was too warm, and we heard another woman on a lower floor asking for a heater. Staff tried really hard to help and we ended up with a window open—which means you get all of the sounds of a busy city. Still, a really nice place."

Garner Edinburgh Haymarket by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great. Staff was very helpful. Loved the connection to the pub."

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."

YOTEL Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Our room was quiet, clean, and had lovely shampoo, conditioner, bath & body wash, and skin cream in the room. It was convenient to walk to Waverley station, the tram and bus stops, New Town, and Old Town. The staff was so helpful and kind to keep our luggage before check in and following check out. I would stay here again."
