Apex Grassmarket Hotel
Staff was extremely helpful, and we loved our view! Having a room with a terrace meant we had a smaller room which proved to be pretty tiny. Some nice amenities and good breakfast. Incredible location, so close to everything we wanted to do.

Garner Edinburgh Haymarket by IHG
Would have liked more yoghurt, seeds, etc for breakfast. Staff at hotel reception were excellent. Room was comfortable and quiet. Excellent situation for transport: taxi rank opposite hotel, buses. Only problem were the lifts: two off completely for one night and only one working on others.

CODE - The Court, Edinburgh
Incredible location, five minute walk from the train station (though uphill) and right in Old Town. Place is clean and stylish, and the jail cell rooms are charming. Laundry was a plus.
