Top Gilmerton Cove Hotel Reviews

Virgin Hotels Edinburgh

"Wonderful hotel. The location was perfect. The staff members were all friendly and helpful. The room was clean and well appointed."

Point A Edinburgh Haymarket

8/10 Good

"Basic but fab !!!"

Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"The location is perfect. You can walk everywhere and the hotel is very cozy and clean."

Edinburgh Travel Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Honestly I really liked this place. It was like having your own little apartment while on vacation. It’s within walking distance to everything but easily accessible to public transportation. The staff were so friendly and very helpful with the 1 million questions I had. The room comes with a fridge and hot water kettle to make coffee and tea which is so convenient. I really like this place. If I ever find myself back in Scotland will stay here."

CODE - The Court, Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Had an incredible stay! Everything was comfortable and so clean. The staff were wonderful, and the location cannot be beat. Can't wait to stay here again!"

Radisson Blu Hotel, Edinburgh City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location for exploring old and “new” Edinburgh!! Right on the Royal Mile and less than 15 minutes to any and all the sites—- great pub restaurants immediately nearby at reasonable prices- really recommended!!"

Kildonan Lodge Hotel

8/10 Good

"Friendly staff but not that well maintained, could do with a bit of a revamp if it’s to deserve its 4 star rating. Perfectly fine for our stay, just needs refreshing."

Northumberland Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, no noise, breakfast not available, front desk staff were OK but gave no recommendations or asked if was our first time etc. Overall good experience and can recommend"

The Abbey Residence

8/10 Good

"The staff at the Abbey are excellent, by far the best part about the stay. Very friendly with each encounter and extremely accommodating. We had several bags with us, and they made our check-in and check-out much easier by going out of their way to support. The room itself is satisfactory; it is about what you pay for. Nothing too extraordinary, but more than sufficient for what we needed it for. Although the bathroom wasn’t terribly well maintained, and the shower didn’t drain very well. Housekeeping was great; they came regularly and did a great job keeping the room to a high standing of cleanliness. The accommodation is also quite accessible to the city centre through both the 3 and the 29, which come quite frequently. Since there is no kitchen, having a Co-Op across the road is quite handy. Also close to some nice walking trails."
