Top People's Story Museum Hotel Reviews

Market Street Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed at this hotel for 2 nights while in Edinburgh. The location is great. Room was clean. The staff were nice and accommodating. I would stay at this hotel again."

CODE - The Court, Edinburgh

8/10 Good

"This is a very (relatively) affordable place to stay. I did a social dinner that was fun. Sleeping in the big rooms in a pod was OK once I had the earplugs in, but since one must be quiet there is a vibe of "don't talk to me!" throughout the facility. Outside of the sleeping room, it is a youth hostel and has the energy and music that goes with that. The staff were great."

Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

8/10 Good

"Buena atención,suit muy confortable (no así la habitación comun"

Radisson Blu Hotel, Edinburgh City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location, room was comfortable, overall good choice"

BrewDog DogHouse Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was amazing. Shout out to P, Casey, Callum and the rest of the team. The rooms were fun. A free beer upon arrival was a nice start to vacation. Enjoyed the free breakfast."

Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Our room was a wee bit small but the view was beyond compare! Excellent location: Tram from the airport and Waverley Station right across the street for the LNER ride to London"

YOTEL Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"The place is good value, modern, very conveniently located in the New Town (although a bit of a walk from Waverley station, that is always my arrival point in Edinburgh), and the staff are friendly and helpful. It's popular with groups of travelers and sometimes crowded in the reception area (but that's perhaps a sign of how successful the hotel is)."

Stay Central

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, comfortable rooms. The bar next door was loud on Saturday night. Would recommend"

Point A Edinburgh Haymarket

8/10 Good

"Room was small, no in room facilities to make a hot drink. Lack of storage for luggage and clothing, would recommend as a short stay location only. Great location though, lots of food options"
