ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge - Royal Mile

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean, front office staff were very pleasant and helpful. Baggage stowing was easy and secure. Location was perfect for us and walkable to everything we wanted to do and see."

Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location"

Market Street Hotel

8/10 Good

"Everything about the hotel is excellent. Room, location, cleanliness. We just had a really rough check in. We had asked for an early check in months prior, and were told they would do everything to accommodate us. We arrived at 8:00am and weren’t given our room until 2:30. Checkout isn’t until 11, so expected 12 the latest. We were not given a time window and basically ignored in the beautiful lobby."
