It's a good hostel, right in the center, a couple of minutes' walk from all the sights. I liked everything, but there was one downside: I was cold in the evening. At first, I thought someone had opened the window, but no, it was just a draft from the frames, and there was no heating anymore. The next day it was warmer outside, and in the hostel, too.

I really enjoyed my four days. Wonderful hotel the team was very friendly and helpful at all times of the day. Great location easy to get to from the Station/airport. Good trams service along Princes Street. Plenty of buses along South Bridge which is a short walk. Enjoyed the spa facilities especially the swimming pool. The lounge near the reception area is a little chilly but a nice spot to relax with a warm drink. Overall a very pleasant stay. Would recommend.
Rooms
Good size room, fantastic shower and products. Bed was very comfortable. It was a tad cold so I requested a blanket which was very snug. Bonus having a fridge and complimentary water nice touch. Tea/coffee try was good but would be great to have some hot chocolate.
Nearby activities
Holyrood Palace and gardens on your doorstep along with great views of Arthur Seat. Five minutes walk to the Royal Mile.
Food and drinks
There is a restaurant and bar in the hotel. I found the food a bit hit and miss to be honest. Breakfast is great with a great choice in food for all palettes. Warm friendly service.

I stayed in a 6 people room with a private bathroom and shower. The room was very clean. Although I needed to make my own sheets, it wasn't a problem. The bed and sheets were very comfortable and there were no unpleasant odors. My family and I had a very pleasant stay, especially the bathroom, which was exceptionally clean.

We had a lovely stay at the Ibis on the Royal mile. Our room was modern, adequate in size. The temperature was just right and the bed comfortable.
The location was excellent. We stayed at the back of the hotel and wasn’t bothered by a lot of noise. I would definitely recommend and will go back one day. An excellent choice and great value.

Great accommodation for solo travellers. When I arrive I was met with a very friendly receptionist who briefed me on the stay. The reception and the bedrooms were in separate buildings for me (Old Town) but only across the road. The beds was comfortable and I was fortunate enough to have roommates who were quiet. Toilets and showers are separate, and it is clean every now and then. 4 stars because it is quite tight inside the shower the overall really good for what price you pay and would definitely come back again.

The hotel has a strategic location, very close to all the major attractions in Edinburgh, within walking distance. The facilities are also very complete, and you can also cook yourself. It is really friendly for those of us who are not used to Western food. You can also taste fresh beer for free on the day of check-in. We checked out at 5:30 in the morning, and the hotel also asked us to prepare a portable breakfast. The service was considerate. Stayed for two nights in total and had a great experience!

This hotel is conveniently located near the city's train station. It has a front desk and luggage storage (for a fee of £3 per piece). Check-in time is 2 PM, and check-out time is 10 AM. The hotel is apartment-style, with spacious and clean rooms, each equipped with a kitchen, kettle, refrigerator, microwave, and tableware. However, there is no elevator, and the toilet and bathroom are located in the hallway. The front desk service is not very friendly to Chinese guests. If you don't mind the type of hotel when traveling to Edinburgh, this hotel is a good option.

We were 4 friends travelling to Edinburgh to explore Scotland. The hostel is really close to the train station and located in a prime location. The receptionists were all really helpful and friendly. Would recommend this to any friend group or solo travellers

Great
LleonconnieThe room was incredibly spacious, with a separate living room. I'd definitely want to stay here long-term if I visit Scotland again. The room was very quiet, and the living room sofa converts into a bed. All the appliances were high-end brands like Dyson and Smeg. The only downside was the lack of on-site parking. There's an NCP car park under the bridge a bit further down, costing around £25 per night. The hotel is very close to the castle, about a 5-minute walk, and about 10 minutes from the city center. There are plenty of restaurants nearby, which is very convenient.

GGuest UserGetting a one-bedroom apartment right by the Royal Mile in Edinburgh in August at this price? What an absolute steal! It's also super close to the train station – the location couldn't be more perfect. This was hands down the best hotel of my entire UK trip. My only minor gripe was the price, but honestly, it was worth every penny. The apartment even came with a washing machine and a full kitchen, which is ideal for longer stays. Just a tip: if you plan to use the washing machine, remember to bring your own detergent, as it's not supplied in the room. The hotel service was outstanding. The staff proactively helped with luggage, which is a massive relief because Edinburgh has a lot of stairs, and getting from the front desk to your room can be quite a trek. This thoughtful service truly made a difference.

CCleo.C.Ideal location within budget
I used to study in Edinburgh uni and my student hall is right opposite - that’s why we chose here
The value is pretty good but I won’t give it 10/10 Here are the reasons
1. The towels have fluff coming out all the time
2. Bathroom hand wash sink doesn’t go down properly
3. Shower pressure fairly low
4!! The WiFi!! There’s barely any connection within our room. The 5G got down to 4G on 1-2 bar so even we use our own data is very slow…
The wifi gets way better in the Lobby and in public corridors but who wants to chill in the lobby after a whole day of walking…
My husband got severe dry eye symptoms at the end of the trip (it may not have something to do with the hotel but he wakes up every single night)
The hotel has very good amenities that benefits every member who stays. but within the room i can always figure out something that doesn’t match up the 4star hotel standard things.

GGuest UserThe room was very clean, and the location couldn't be better. It's practically right next to Market Street Station – just a short walk to the left after you exit. The back door leads directly to the Royal Mile, and the front door, after crossing the station, takes you straight to Princes Street. All the classic sights are within walking distance.
The only minor complaint is that there's ongoing renovation work on the building behind, and we were assigned a second-floor room facing that side. There was a possibility of being woken up by noise every morning.
Next time I stay, I'll definitely request a high-floor room with a view of the hill.

GGuest UserService was good enough and as per expectations of a big hotel brand. Nothing to complain about.
The only complaint I have is about the amenities. There was no dental kit provided in the room and when requested for, I was asked to come down to the reception to collect it rather than have housekeeping deliver to the room. There was no single use slippers either and I had to pay £5 for it which I felt was pretty excessive for a disposable pair of slippers.. I paid for it anyway since I needed it. The staff were kind about it though and could do nothing as it was hotel policy.
Hope Novotel can review its policies on the provision of these amenities.

FFangaodexingkongThe location of the hotel is invincible (the house in the lower right corner of the second picture). Turn right after exiting the Market Street exit of the train station and walk for one minute. You don’t have to worry about carrying large luggage. When you cross the road, you will see Prince Street Park and Waverley Bridge (where the photo was taken). After crossing the bridge, you will see Prince Street. Turn right and walk for 15 minutes to Calton Hill. Turn right and walk for 3 minutes to the Royal Mile. There are many restaurants along the way. It is very close to the University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh Castle, and the Art Museum. The staff’s service is very good. When they meet people from non-English speaking countries, they will communicate with guests at a very slow speed. It is also very convenient to store luggage. There is also an airport bus at the door of the hotel.

GGuest UserOut of the three Hiltons I stayed at during my UK trip, this one had the best environment and service. The space was much larger than the one near King's Cross in London, and the overall atmosphere was significantly better and more comfortable.

Great location at a good price, in Edinburgh you will be outside most of the day in this great city so you just need a comfortable sleep at a good location which this hotel provides as it's at the tip of the royal mile and only few mins walk to Waverley bridge where you can get the airport express bus and also the train station, rooms have good Balmoral view
Just avoid the corner rooms cuz they have sluggish internet connection

AAnonymous UserWe got the 2 Bedroom New Apartment which is very spacious, modern & clean with a kitchenette & best, washing machine! My kids love the place very much.
Location is a bit of walking distance from city centre but it’s okay as the stroll is nice. Not too crowded near to the city centre.

XXinlangcaifucaifThis hotel is on par with a 2-star hotel in China. The breakfast was absolutely dreadful! Renting a car in Edinburgh is expensive, and exceeding the mileage limit is a huge rip-off. The Elephant House is a must-visit for Harry Potter fans. As for the Sichuan restaurant across the street, it was extremely unfriendly to Chinese people. No greetings upon arrival or departure, just stern faces throughout. They didn't even say a word when we paid the bill, let alone a 'thank you'!
