Top City Art Centre Hotel Reviews

Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful staff, great location"

Market Street Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"One of the most thoughtfully designed hotels I’ve stayed in. I felt simultaneously at home and like I was having a luxury hotel experience. Well stocked room with great selection of optional extras such as early check in— much appreciated after an overnight international flight. Great location with proximity to all the main attractions. "

Aparthotel Adagio Edinburgh Royal Mile

8/10 Good

"Location is great. It is walking distance to everything you would want to see. We were not informed which day we would have a room cleaning, or even if we would. Some communication would have been appreciated as they removed items that they assumed were garbage but we had wanted to keep. Scotland meals are expensive everywhere, but with us staying for 8 days, we felt the cost for breakfast was a wee bit high for the breakfast they served. Perhaps include it in the cost of the room instead..preferably at a lower rate. Overall though, the facilities were clean, lovely old stone building and close to the Royal Mile which is what we wanted."

Motel One Edinburgh-Royal

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location. The property was clean and well maintained. Although the rooms were spartan in decor and size, it was perfect for my stay which did not include a lot of hanging out in my hotel room. I also stayed at the Motel One in Glasgow and at the Motel One in Amsterdam Waterlooplein on this trip. All were great stays. I would recommend and stay again"
