Top City Art Centre Hotel Reviews

ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge - Royal Mile

8/10 Good

"The property was clean and modern, the bed was excellent so we were able to get a good nights sleep and the property was close to the Royal Mile. I was happy overall so I would definitely stay again."

Motel One Edinburgh-Royal

10/10 Excellent

"We came to explore Edinburgh and the location of the hotel is perfect. Next to the train station, a block to catch the tram, a couple of blocks to the hop-on-hop-off. Restaurants, museums, pubs, shops and the Royal Mile all within walking distance of the hotel. The rooms are very nice with a minimalist flare. Very quiet! Bring extra hangers as the closet space is limited. There are no dressers so, plan to live out of your suitcase. The breakfast buffet cost extra but, has plenty to offer (except gluten free options are minimal)."

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

8/10 Good

"Had a lovely balcony room overlooking Grassmarket square with views of the castle. Hotel was clean and staff was helpful and kind, We arrived early and were able to get our rooms early. Rooms were very nice. Being next to grassmarket was a little louder than expected but manageable. Restaurant food was delicious and service was great."

Hilton Edinburgh Carlton

8/10 Good

"The only downside was there was not a coffee station for guests at the hotel. You have to wait until the doors open for breakfast. There is a coffee shop nearby, but it would be more convenient for guests if coffee was provided 24/7. The new renovated rooms are beautiful and extremely comfortable .. however, the walls are paper thin."
