The Scholar ★★★★
"Excellent"
a&o Edinburgh City ★★
"The hostel is in a great location, very close to the city centre and within easy walking distance. The cleanliness was okay overall, I stayed for four nights, and during most of my stay the room wasn’t thoroughly cleaned. The beds were made and the rubbish was removed, but the rest of the room didn’t seem to be cleaned. However, the day before I left, I wrote a short note for the cleaner and left it near the bin explaining my concerns. When I returned, the room was absolutely impeccable. I really appreciated how quickly and seriously they responded to my feedback. The staff are very friendly and welcoming, and the common area is comfortable. The main downside for me was the noise from the street. There was quite a lot of noise at night, sometimes continuing until late, so this is something to keep in mind if you are a light sleeper. Overall, despite these small issues, I had a good stay and would recommend the hostel, especially to women travelling solo. I felt safe and comfortable during my stay, and I particularly appreciated how responsive the staff were when I raised a concern."
Holiday Inn Express EDINBURGH - CITY WEST by IHG ★★★
"Excellent! You can see the castle from here 🏰. The service and cleanliness were both great, and it was fantastic value for money."
The Bonham ★★★★★
"The hotel is very quiet, and the bed is big and comfortable. But the room is a little small. The hotel will send some snacks and water every day. But the hotel lobby is relatively small, and only some customers who need to drink and order food can sit in the room below, which is not good."
Hotel du Vin Edinburgh ★★★★
"The location is very good and convenient for traveling."
The Scott ★★★★
"The location is great, right inside the University of Edinburgh, with a nice environment and even parking space available at the entrance. The service attitude was also very good."
Dakota Edinburgh ★★★★
Peacefully situated near the iconic Forth Bridges, just a short train ride away from Edinburgh’s city center. Quiet yet well-connected, it’s the ideal spot for exploring South Queensferry, Hopetoun House, and all of Edinburgh’s attractions. Enjoy relaxed service, a fitness center, and on-site dining for a perfect leisure stay.
Roomzzz Edinburgh ★★★★
"The room with a view was absolutely fantastic! You could see Calton Hill and the sea in the distance right from the room. The free croissants at the front desk were delicious. Calton Hill is just a five-minute walk away, and the views from there are breathtaking. The hotel is also only a few minutes from Edinburgh Waverley train station, and having direct lift access was so convenient and pleasant. Edinburgh is a wonderful place and definitely worth revisiting. This hotel is also worth another stay!"
Malmaison Edinburgh City ★★★★
"This trip was a last-minute decision, and I unexpectedly chose this hotel… mainly because it's just 500 meters from the train station. But surprisingly, this hotel is absolutely the most noteworthy in Edinburgh city center; the tranquility at night ensures a restful and comfortable sleep. Highly recommended!"

Holiday Inn Express EDINBURGH CITY CENTRE by IHG
A convenient hotel housed in a Georgian building in New Town, offering smart comfort and unbeatable access to the city center.
Holiday Inn Express EDINBURGH AIRPORT by IHG
"Walking from the car rental return at the airport to the hotel was quite convenient, but the walk itself was really dirty, full of trash. The hotel itself was pretty standard, with a typical American feel. Getting into the city was easy using the airport bus. However, the shuttle bus *to* the airport costs 2.5 pounds per person and makes several stops, so a short distance takes over 10 minutes."

Holiday Inn EDINBURGH by IHG
"Absolutely amazing. We arrived very late due to heavy snow- they checked us in and organised an extra bed literally within 2 minutes of arriving. The service is efficient and rapid. The gentleman who looked after our room in house keeping was awesome, he helped us settle in and the little touches to make the kids feel special was duly noted. The manager down on the reception desk was excellent. Everything is managed very well, there is no waiting and the service is outstanding. The view at breakfast is amazing! Mountains in the distance covered in snow. Our stay was better than expected. Parking ✅ Swimming pool and sauna ✅ Food ✅ Service ✅ The hotel location is convenient and the restaurant space is open plan and cosy yet very busy. The hotel does need some updated but everything works well. The location is literally next to the zoo and the overflow car park 🅿️ is next to the hotel. The staff here are outstanding. High praise. Thank you."

"The hotel's location is absolutely fantastic – almost all the attractions are within walking distance. It's right at the foot of Calton Hill, and with daylight saving time, it stays light late, so it's super convenient to watch the sunset, head back to the hotel to rest, and then go out again to see it."
Best Western Kings Manor Hotel
"Visiting Edinburgh was already magical, but my stay at the Best Western Kings Manor Hotel made the trip even more memorable. The hotel has such a calm and welcoming atmosphere, and after a full day of exploring the city, it was the perfect place to come back to and unwind. The reception staff were especially helpful and friendly, which made the stay even more pleasant. I would definitely love to come back again. ✨"
