Top Edinburgh and Lothian Hotel Reviews

Garner Edinburgh Haymarket by IHG

8/10 Good

"Over all good except carpet was dirty in the hallway in our room area"

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel was lovely, the location was excellent. We had a view of the castle out of our window! We used the pool and it was clean and a nice temperature. The only issue we had was the heat. The hotel was incredibly hot, the windows were not easy to open and didnt open more than a couple of cms. I believe this is a wider issue around the UK not just at this hotel but thats why I rated 4/5"

Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

8/10 Good

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