Top John Knox's Grave Hotel Reviews

YOTEL Edinburgh, Select by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, comfortable and great location. Great value for your money. Free coffee all day and night. Nice bar and restaurant. Typical British room compared to North America. They are all small. IKEA design"

Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, less than 5 minutes from Waverley station. A Central Hotel to access the delights of Edinburgh. Rooms clean and spacious for the 2 of us. Comfy beds! Lifts were our only issue. You need your room card to swipe the floor number in lift. Sometimes they worked sometimes they didnt and as we dont like lifts caused some anxiety! Only issue we had. Would recommend for a getaway. Easy to locate along Princes Street opposite monument and gardens."

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"El personal fue muy amable y atento,les recomiendo el restaurante tiene muy buen menú y creo que si lo comparas con otros del área es asequible en el precio.lo que sí recomendaría es poner una rampa para poder llegar al lobby del hotel ya que cuando entras al hotel te encuentras con unas escaleras que tienes que subir las maletas ya que no tienen maleteros,después descubrí que tienes una rampa desde el parqueo del hotel,pero si no vienes con carro te toca cargar las maletas,las muchachas del lobby quisieron ayudar,pero a uno le da pena que una mujer cargue por ti."

BrewDog DogHouse Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"This was such a cool and unique place for our trip to Edinburgh. The whole vibe was as advertised, cool music and beer theme. The room was huge and the food in the restaurant was better than expected with included breakfast a great perk. Location was perfect, close to train station and walkable to everything. And who doesn't love a shower beer!?!?"
