Top Scottish Mining Museum Hotel Reviews

Harvieston Hall Estate Rooms

8/10 Good

"Унікальне історичне місце помешкання, чиста , тепла ,маленька кімната. Чистий постіль Але ціна завелика . Вікна не відкриваються ,"

Chestnut Cottage - a charming traditional stone cottage with 2 bedrooms on Arniston Estate

10/10 Excellent

"C’est avec un aussi grand plaisir que lors de notre premier séjour que nous avons passé ces quelques jours au Chestnut Cottage ! Merci Henrietta pour ce chaleureux accueil."

Carberry Tower Mansion House and Estate

8/10 Good

"The place is beautiful, and our room was very good. The biggest issue was that Uber or Bolt does not pick up there. And we had to ask the hotel to call a taxi, which was really expensive (3x Uber). From Edinburgh center, ~£20 Uber and £50 taxi. Or you can go to the nearest train station for ~£15. The other issue was that there is no phone coverage in the hotel and very weak connection outside."

Fantastic traditional yet up-to-date spacious cottage very close to Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"What a great place to stay! Wish we took the time to walk around the grounds more, but such an incredible location. Quiet countryside with deer roaming, and only a short drive to central Edinburgh. Communication with the host was excellent and full of every amenity you could need."

The Abbey Residence

8/10 Good

"The staff at the Abbey are excellent, by far the best part about the stay. Very friendly with each encounter and extremely accommodating. We had several bags with us, and they made our check-in and check-out much easier by going out of their way to support. The room itself is satisfactory; it is about what you pay for. Nothing too extraordinary, but more than sufficient for what we needed it for. Although the bathroom wasn’t terribly well maintained, and the shower didn’t drain very well. Housekeeping was great; they came regularly and did a great job keeping the room to a high standing of cleanliness. The accommodation is also quite accessible to the city centre through both the 3 and the 29, which come quite frequently. Since there is no kitchen, having a Co-Op across the road is quite handy. Also close to some nice walking trails."

Dalhousie Castle

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful night staying in this castle hotel and the fine dining in the dungeon is also highly recommended."

The Sun Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We were coming in late, so I called ahead. The front desk was very accommodating even though we arrived after they were closed. They left our keys for us clearly marked. The room was wonderful and the bed was spacious. Breakfast in the morning was delicious. Our room had the old-style skeleton key so if you are not used to that it might be good to brush up on how to use it before you arrive. We've experienced that a few times in the UK so it was OK for us."

Melville Castle

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at Melville Castle was everything I’d hoped for and more. We felt in awe and humbled by its grandeur and history. Strolling around the beautiful grounds added to the experience. This was a stay we will never forget."

Premier Inn Edinburgh A1 - Musselburgh

10/10 Excellent

"the property was well situated for travel to Edinburgh, but the Restuarant had been sold and was closed. Also some of the staff were borderline rude."
