Lovely hotel, in a terrific spot in Edinburgh. Tons of shopping and restaurants on the doorstep. Staff were very courteous and super friendly. Rooms very nice, definitely a weird layout..regarding the bathroom area. Loved the fact that they had valet parking which is very rare in Edinburgh Would definitely recommend this hotel.

I recently stayed at the W Edinburgh arriving after an overnight train trip on the Caledonian Sleeper. The W is a stylish new hotel that mixes a sleek blend of modern luxury and stylish Scottish flair. Perfectly placed in the St James Quarter, it’s ideal for exploring the city, steps away from top restaurants, shops, and just a short walk from Princes Street and the Old Town. You get both the buzz of the city and the calm of a luxury escape. Our room was beautiful with a large window, plush bedding, and thoughtful touches. The bathroom was a highlight, with a rainfall shower and luxurious amenities. Every member of staff struck that perfect balance of being relaxed yet professional. Service was genuinely outstanding. We would highly recommend the W to travellers to Edinburgh!

You probably can’t find a better location! Staff was very attentive and all areas of hotel very well maintained and clean. The only reason I’m not giving a 5 stars rating is because of the breakfast. They’re limited to the idea behind SushiSamba and sometimes all you need when away from home is a regular buffet or a true continental breakfast. I’d probably not necessarily include breakfast on my rate and instead explore options nearby.
