Leonardo Hotel Edinburgh Haymarket
Great hotel for staying in Edinburgh. The beds were comfortable, the breakfast was great - the restaurant for dinner though, well I’m willing to accept that not everything can be 100%. Parking is charged accordingly and was on location. Overall a great stay!

The Hoxton Edinburgh
The room was incredible and the staff was so friendly! I love the lobby space—from the energy to the food and drink offerings. I also felt the location, while not in the city center, was perfectly accessible to everything you need.
