Leonardo Edinburgh City

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was helpful and friendly and the room was wonderfully clean and roomy. Location was wonderful, close to so much and yet just a slight off the busy (noisy) pathways. We felt secure and comfortable. :-) Would definitely stay here again."

Staycity Aparthotels, Edinburgh, West End

8/10 Good

"Great location and lovely staff. Apartment was just the job for our Edinburgh stay. Clean and tidy enough with everything we needed. Did get very warm inside and the walls are quite thin so if you’re a light sleeper you’ll need ear plugs. Car park underground is handy and safe. Does have a lot of pigeons nesting there so if you want too avoid getting too much bird poop on your paintwork be careful where you park or take a car cover."

Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Leondaro Royal Hotel. My partner and I were visiting Edinburgh for the very first time and we were travelling via train, the location of the hotel was perfect! Just a 5 minute walk and we were there. The lobby was stunning, we were greeted by the lovely staff at Reception and were even offered a complimentary glass of Prosecco each on arrival. The room itself, 708 specifically, was stunning. It felt really modern and clean and the view was incredible. As it was my birthday, the hotel had even arranged a card for me and a very generous chocolate bar too, which really was the cherry on the cake! We’d definitely stop here again."

Holiday Inn Edinburgh by IHG

6/10 Okay

"The room was definitely dated and there were three of us in the room and housekeeping only ever left two towels. We had to ask for extra a few times and toilet paper. The best part of this property is the restaurant. Great food and nice staff although on the slow side and not too attentive to guests. Several times we had to find a waiter. It was also hopping with bus tour groups so super busy in the evening. Good for a short stay."

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

2/10 Terrible

"The biggest issue was the room temperature. The room became extremely hot throughout the afternoon and evening and was very uncomfortable to stay in. We were unable to properly relax or sleep in the room due to the heat. In order to make the room even somewhat tolerable, we had to keep the windows open all night, which then brought in constant street noise, bright lights from the Grassmarket area, and late-night noise from bars and traffic below."
