Top Tollcross Hotel Reviews

ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge - Royal Mile

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is very centrally located and the staff was super helpful."

Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection

8/10 Good

"We had a wonderful stay at Mount Royal Hotel. Waking up to the castle view every morning was truly special, and the staff were consistently warm and welcoming. The room was quite small, with limited storage and no refrigerator. We paid an extra £20 per night for the castle view, and for us, it was worth it. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 was the strong musty smell in the shower room, which was unpleasant throughout our stay."

Apex Waterloo Place Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed for our silver wedding anniversary and glad we chose the Apex Waterloo. Check in was easy and friendly, Room was very nice, clean, spacious and well equipped. Wonderful reception lady came and brought us a bottle of Prosecco on ice with 2 glasses on the house which was a lovely gesture Pool and Spa was lovely and relaxing and for an early Sat evening we had it to ourselves. The lady managing the Spa was wonderfully polite and kind. The bar staff were friendly. Overall a great hotel, yes price was high, but mid July, excellent proximity to city centre, train station etc and special occasion the Apex Waterloo was an excellent choice and would definitely recommend"

Sheraton Grand Hotel & Spa, Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"We were greeted at the car by Wayne the bellman, he was in a full kilt and was incredibly welcoming, helpful with suggestions of what to do with a map of the best locations to go. We ate twice in the restaurant, the service and food were incredible we also ordered room service, it arrived very quickly and still hot. Every staff member was friendly and courteous, I couldn’t fault them for anything."
