Top City Art Centre Hotel Reviews

Motel One Edinburgh-Royal

10/10 Excellent

"Good hotel"

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

8/10 Good

"Amazing location and super Friday and helpful staff. Soundproofing is not great."

Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean, excellent breakfast, excellent staff."

YOTEL Edinburgh, Select by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice and clean place. In a decent location to walk to things and staff will order you a taxi. Breakfast was okay, appreciated their bar and kiosk area. I had four people in a double and bunk bed room and it was a good size"

Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at the Leonardo was perfect, the staff was so helpful, it's in a great location to get anywhere in the city, and the place felt quite quiet for being so centrally located. So glad we added the breakfast every day, the selection was great and it saved us having to find new places to eat every morning during our week long stay."

Stay Central

10/10 Excellent

"Room was nice. The bar attached was noisy, however, earplugs were provided. Staff were exceptional as was the breakfast. Really good location. If you come by train and have luggage I would recommend taking a taxi. Enjoyed our brief stay."

W Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Superb hotel in great location. Room with 2 beds was spacious and having the balcony was very nice. Only issues are that: 1) the bathroom is small and awkwardly designed compared to rest of the room which also resulted in the floor getting flooded anytime a shower was taken, and 2) gym needs additional weight machines to make it more complete and up to expected standards for such a nice and modern hotel."

Aparthotel Adagio Edinburgh Royal Mile

8/10 Good

"Great location, quiet, and easy check-in. The staff were polite and professional. The stay was pretty pricey but it's Edinburgh. I would stay again if I were to return."

Virgin Hotels Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"All was excellent! So clean and charming. Excellent location. Staff is very welcoming, helpful and attentive. Would recommend."
