ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge - Royal Mile
The location was great and the staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. The room was nice. My only concern was the bathroom. The toilet didn’t flush properly and the floor would remain wet after showering for a very long time (no lip on the shower floor, I assume for handicapped use).

Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh
Great location and close to station. Staff were lovely and offered Prosecco on arrival. Breakfast plenty of choice just hate machines for drinks, prefer the personal touch being older! Only issue was the bed being too firm which caused backache but only stayed one night.
