CODE - The Court, Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

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

Aparthotel Adagio Edinburgh Royal Mile

8/10 Good

"The good: Great location right on the Royal Mile with a lot of food options nearby. It is also just a 15-minute walk from the Airlink bus station (the shuttle to and from the airport). The bad: We stayed in a one-bedroom apartment with two adults and two kids. The apartment is tiny—only one person can fit in the kitchen area at a time, and there is absolutely no room for four people to sit and have breakfast."

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."
