Sheraton Grand Hotel & Spa, Edinburgh
Fantastic hotel. Great location, near to restaurants & pubs. Rooms were spotlessly clean and well equipped. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast is a must. Sadly never tried the spa or pools.

PREMIER SUITES Edinburgh Fountain Court
Friendly staff. Room was ready early so they let us check in. Suite was nice and looked like the photos. Cons: You can hear everything. People above were very loud walking around for ages early morning and late in evening. Really weird smell in reception room and downstairs.

Mercure Edinburgh Haymarket
12 min walk from haymarket train station and a 15 mins walk to princes street. The weather was good so did it mind the walk but it would be miserable if typical Edinburgh weather. Hotel room small but clean and shower was powerful.
