Apex Waterloo Place Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel, well maintained, in excellent central location. Rooms modern and stylish. Staff all friendly and service was excellent. Great amenities and close to everything including Waverley station, theatre and St James Centre. Enjoyed our stay. Highly recommended."

Aparthotel Adagio Edinburgh Royal Mile

10/10 Excellent

"We had a fantastic stay at the Adagio. We were a family of four staying ina one bed apartment. The apartment was ready earlier than stated (we arrived for about 1pm) and so managed to check in early. The apartment itself had loads of space, plenty of room for four of us, and was clean. Breakfast was great, loads to choose from (hot and cold) and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Excellent location just a short walk from the train station and a lovely stroll (uphill) to reach the castle along the Edinburgh Mile. Couldn’t have asked for a better stay. Would highly recommend!"

The Caledonian Edinburgh, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Exquisite. I would live here if I could! The room was enormous and spotless with gorgeous views; even though I didn’t face the castle, the view was stunning. The room had soaring ceiling and windows, comfortable bed and pillows, great water pressure and heated towel rack. The staff was a delight; one concierge gave me a detailed explanation of the best route to hike Arthur’s Seat with a map to take with me, then wanted to hear all about it upon my return. I love this hotel and hope to stay again!"
