Top Sherlock Holmes Statue Hotel Reviews

Apex Waterloo Place Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Really nice hotel; very polite, friendly and helpful staff. Room was nice: it had a separate bath and shower. Made full use of the pool (small and oddly shaped, but sufficient for a dip), sauna (which was nice and hot) and gym (small, but top quality technogym equipment and more than enough to get a good workout. Breakfast was also good. Can’t really fault it, other than two single beds pushed together to make a double bed, but they easily slid apart."

ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge - Royal Mile

10/10 Excellent

"Liked it quite a bit. Clean room, friendly staff, easy access, good breakfast. If you're not familiar with Edinburgh, just know the front door of the hotel opens onto one of the busiest streets in the city. It's walkable to most everything. If you like busy, this is your place. If you like a slower pace that's off-the-beaten-path, look elsewhere. (Adding-- the room was quiet! No issue there.)"

YOTEL Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, good location, friendly and helpful staff"

Market Street Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Loved our helpful concerige Andre? not sure of spelling"

Point A Edinburgh Haymarket

10/10 Excellent

"Helpful, informed staff. Comfortable beds. Delicious breakfast."

Hilton Edinburgh Carlton

10/10 Excellent

"The location was perfect for exploring beautiful Edinburgh on foot. The hotel was modern, clean and our room fit the 4 of us pretty well by European standards. We were surrounded by great food options."

Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Nice stay"

Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Great location - walkable to most everywhere in the city! Very friendly staff. Rooms are small but clean and comfortable."

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

8/10 Good

"The room was mostly clean and well kept, although compact. Tea and instant coffee provided. Room was refreshed every day, fresh towels etc. We were on the 5th floor and had the most beautiful view of the castle and were treated to the sounds and sights of the Military Tattoo by night. Staff were fine, working in Edinburgh in August obviously takes its toll! One mature gentleman, in a blue shirt was hugely friendly and went above and beyond for us during our stay. The pool was compact but okay, nice little sauna too. A good way to unwind after a day exploring the city. We really enjoyed the nearby cafes and bars. So didn’t make use of the restaurant or bar in the hotel. Our stay was very expensive, to be expected in Edinburgh in August."
