Top St. Andrew Square Hotel Reviews

CODE - The Court, Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Can’t beat the location. Right in the middle of everything, yet quiet at night. Highly recommend."

Britannia Hotel Edinburgh

8/10 Good

"Breakfast okay. Regular English options. Room cleanliness needs work, a bit of a hoover and dusting around ends would be great. Shower curtain was mouldy at the bottoms so that was a bit gag inducing. Shower itself pressure okay. Room was noisy at nights as could hear the plumbing for everyone's shower. Constant sounds. 2 single beds, nice, clean sheets, comfy pillows. All in all okay for price and distance into Edinburgh was good. Within walking distance to Dean village if you have that on your check list."

Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection

8/10 Good

"This is an OK hotel in the heart of the downtown area. But be warned that you will have to park at least a 10 minute walk away so be prepared to walk your bags through the city center in order to check in and check out. The staff is friendly, but amenities could’ve been better."
