Top Scotch Whisky Experience Hotel Reviews

Virgin Hotels Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is on Victoria St., the best location in Edinburgh. Clean room and good amenities. We enjoyed dinner at “Commons Club”. The library next to the reception was nice touch."

Point A Edinburgh Haymarket

8/10 Good

"It was a very clean room, unfortunately only one pillow on each bed, which was kind of Chin for what we paid. Very small rooms, but we expected that since they were called cozy. The staff was amazingly kind and helpful and I liked the little coffee bar downstairs this is a very good place to stay if you’re just crashing for the night, no frills, but very clean and the place smelled good and looked good."

ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge - Royal Mile
