Apex Waterloo Place Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel has a nice central location. The staff is very helpful and the room as expected. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to others traveling in the area."

Dakota Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"We loved staying here, in the quieter area of South Queens ferry. The hotel is a 30 second walk from the bus stop, and close to the airport, which was awesome and made getting around very easy. They also offer free airport shuttle Monday-Friday, which we greatly appreciated. The beds are AMAZING! Everyone warned me Scotland would have awful beds, but Dakota's bedding and mattress were so soft and so comfortable. The restaurant downstairs was wonderful, and the food was top tier. The Sunday Roast was massive, and so incredibly tasty. All of the servers and hostesses in the dining area were phenomenal, as well. The front staff were so sweet and helpful, especially Chloe and Niamh! Chloe spent a lot of time explaining the best ways to get around and what to sight see. They were always pleasant, even when it was crazy busy in the hotel. If I'm fortunate enough to return to Edinburgh, I would 100% stay here again"

Radisson Blu Hotel, Edinburgh City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic stay at the Radisson Blu. Our suite was excellent, and the kids were thrilled to be able to sleep in their own beds in their own main room. Despite being in the heart of the city centre, the rooms were incredibly well insulated and it was so quiet and comfortable inside. You could tell the hotel was very thoughtful about comfort (ex: ear buds, pillow and bedding options, fruit basket, ample water bottles). The location for this hotel is incredible, steps away from the Royal Mile and only an easy 10 minutes walk away from many attractions (ex: the castle, calton hill, national museum, etc.). We wished we could've stayed here even longer! And would be happy to return in the future too. The breakfast was decent and good quality, although they could benefit from having more variety. Other than that, fantastic hotel. "

Aparthotel Adagio Edinburgh Royal Mile

10/10 Excellent

"The Royal Mile has become a zoo, but it's also the spine of Edinburgh (literally), and so a hotel on an extension of the Royal Mile that's both centrally located and not quite so frenetic is a great compromise. The service was very good, the rooms clean, and the cooking facilities and full-size fridge meant we ate out when we wanted to, not because we had to. The included breakfast was about average (please find a better supplier for the consistently stale pain au chocolat!) but filling, and we found everything easily walkable, from the castle to Arthur's Seat (okay, climbable) to the Water of Leith. I'd happily stay here again if we return to Edinburgh."
