CODE - The Court, Edinburgh

Theres also a portable steamer for your clothes AND the mini bar is free! Haggis chips and cider yes please. Will defo be back xx"

Virgin Hotels Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Virgin Hotel Edinburgh is the place to stay while visiting this city! It's location on Victoria Street is central to everything and in tbe heart of the town. The customer service in the hotel is outstanding, truly white glove. All the staff go out of their way to make your stay as comfortable as possible."

Apex Waterloo Place Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Though we only stayed one night the Apex Waterloo was a delight. We arrived in the early afternoon, way before check-in but we were upgraded to a two story accommodation that was available immediately (for which we were grateful after a long flight)! We were surprised to find air conditioning. Most hotels in Scotland do not have it and the summer days can get quite warm. The hotel location is perfect for sightseeing, shopping, and dining. We enjoyed cocktails in the lounge after our day of sightseeing and breakfast was wonderful. The hotel stored our luggage while we toured the castle and unfortunately, we did not have time to enjoy the pool or spa but we will definitely return! Thank you!"

Cairn Hotel

8/10 Good

"Stayed with wife and 2 children (20 and 23) in the family room in July. This apartment is across the street from the hotel. Pros: the room was huge with a 2 story ceiling, Beds and pillows were good. King bed and a bunk bed. Very clean. On a quiet street one block off a main street. Staff was very nice and helpful. Cons: the bathroom. It was clean and the shower was fine. The sink was tiny, no place to put toiletries, but the worst thing was it had 2 faucets, one hot and one cold, so you had to decide if you were going to have real hot or real cold water when washing. I got adept at swishing my hands from under the cold water to under the hot to make my own lukewarm water. I couldn't figure out how to turn on air conditioner. The location was fine, about a 10-15 minute walk to the train station and Royal Mile. Did not have breakfast here. The neighborhood is very safe. I might go back, but at $500 per night I expected more."
