Top Old Town Edinburgh Hotel Reviews

Motel One Edinburgh-Royal

Motel One Edinburgh-Royal

8/10 Good
"Really liked the hotel just wish there would have been more description about the room. The photos show a room with big windows hot to the hotel and it was a small window looking right at a wall. Was so bummed out! Also keep in mind there is no AC so you’ll probably want to open your windows which is fine expect it’s near a pub I heard everything from singing and drunk people up until around 4am very loudly and then people fighting. Other than that great location."
