Top Melville Monument Hotel Reviews

Market Street Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing hotel. Stumbling distance from Waverly station, very quiet inside. Ideally situated for the Royal Mile, Princes Street. Free snacks and drinks - worth the whole visit! Beautiful room. Absolutely amazing place. Staff really helpful and attentive."

Virgin Hotels Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Incredible hotel in the heart of it all! Hospitality at its best. People at every turn to offer help, answer questions and help with luggage. Great amenities such as breakfast, restaurants in hotel, beautiful fitness center and immaculate clean hallways and rooms. The complimentary water and coffee were appreciated as were the local Scottish treats available to buy in the mini bar. Being located on Victoria Street was dreamy. An absolute perfect hotel experience!"

YOTEL Edinburgh

8/10 Good

"Great location and very nice hotel. They do host many events and the staff/resources can be focused more on the guests of the event than the guests at the bar/restaurant. Overall it’s a great place to stay just don’t go if crowds bother you or you are planning to eat or drink in the bar on a regular basis."

CODE - The Court, Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"This place is awesome! We stayed in the family room for four and it was comfortable, clean and spacious. Free pre-check in and post-check out luggage storage onsite. Great location right in the middle of the Royal Mile action, yet providing a quiet night’s rest. In room A/C a definite plus."
