Top West Pilton Hotel Reviews

Garner Edinburgh Haymarket by IHG

8/10 Good

"It has a great location near by bus and tram station. It’s a modern and well maintained place. Highly recommended ."

Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were very helpful in both hotels giving us access to the swimming pool and sauna. They cheerfully helped us with any enquiries and made us feel welcome. The room was easily accessible clean and comfortable with TV and free WiFi however there was a lack of usb points which would have been useful. We also had a bath and a shower with toiletries. There was access on the landing to free filtered water and a complimentary drink of our choice at the bar. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend a return visit."

ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge - Royal Mile

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel is centrally located with an easy walk around old town and to the castle. Would not recommend getting a rental car, no parking! We only purchased the breakfast buffet when we wanted it, and it was good. Staff was extremely helpful and always around, especially to hail a taxi, Uber was not that timely and the taxi fare was fair, if not cheaper."

Point A Edinburgh Haymarket

10/10 Excellent

"I feel I had everything I needed. Was comfy, nice stuff, no kettle or coffee in a room but you can ask for hot water. The location just awesome, everywhere is walkable but if you need transportation, train and tram are very close. Definitely stay again. Breakfast was great- if you wake up early you will get warm bread or croissant"
