ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge - Royal Mile

5/5 Excellent

"IBIS was simply amazing!!! The other 6 family members all booked cheaper B&B's around Edinburgh but the South Bridge IBIS was central to everything we wanted to see. Breakfast was fantastic and the service and dinner and evening bar was great! Exactly what we expected after staying with IBIS in Amsterdam on our last family trip. "

"First time to Scotland on a solo trip. I loved it and I loved this hotel. Very comfortable. There was a door next doo that kept slamming over and over and maybe needed to be fixed. Once those people checked out, it was peaceful. Next time I’ll book a castle view but it was really nice. Food was delicious at the hotel. Loved the iced tea and water containers as you walked in. It was a nice touch after a long day of walking. I was also grateful for the button at the desk to call a taxi to Waverly Station. . Very helpful. "

"We enjoyed our stay at Premier Suites in Edinburgh and found the hotel to be clean, spacious, comfortable, and had modern features. It was in a good location for walking to the castle and Royal Mile. It was a very good value for a family of 4 and we would highly recommend it to others. "

5/5 Excellent

"Great Stay! Loved the free Luggage Storage for our early arrival. Fun and Funky Lobby, Full Bar, and nice sitting areas. Did not have the breakfast but it looked fabulous and definitely worth the extra $ Room is small and cozy. Perfect for what we needed. Our room was a standard room and looked directly at the wall of the next building, that was fine for us. We only stayed to sleep and change etc. not for the view. EXCELLENT Location to Waverly train Station, Royal Mile Shops/Sights and All of the tourist sights in Old Town! Easy walk to trains, Buses etc too. Room was having some air con issues and the hotel fixed it within an hour. We were able to open the window too. There was some late night city noise from the bar hoppers on Saturday Night with our window open. We didn't mind hearing people having fun and enjoying their holiday. If you are a light sleeper maybe that would bother you. We would 100% recommend and stay again. Also, A good Tip: use the Blue AirLink 100 Bus to/from the Airport vs. a Taxi. You can pay directly on the Bus with a Credit Card and its MUCH Cheaper and drops you closer to the hotel than our taxi did! Taxi was about $50 and Bus was $11 for 2 People."
