Top Charlotte Square Hotel Reviews

Virgin Hotels Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is on Victoria St., the best location in Edinburgh. Clean room and good amenities. We enjoyed dinner at “Commons Club”. The library next to the reception was nice touch."

Point A Edinburgh Haymarket

8/10 Good

"It was a very clean room, unfortunately only one pillow on each bed, which was kind of Chin for what we paid. Very small rooms, but we expected that since they were called cozy. The staff was amazingly kind and helpful and I liked the little coffee bar downstairs this is a very good place to stay if you’re just crashing for the night, no frills, but very clean and the place smelled good and looked good."

Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location, great stay. Recommend this hotel."

Leonardo Hotel Edinburgh Haymarket

8/10 Good

"A pleasant stay at this hotel, perfectly positioned for a walk to either the high street or Murrayfield. The bed was comfy and room clean although the bathroom was a little mucky in places. Plenty of coffee and pods for a brew. It was noisy outside the room near the elevators. Snacks and drinks from the self serve shop are very expensive and the bar closes early at 11pm. Parking available and at a reasonable price. We would stay here again though."

Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Very convenient to Waverly, staff very helpful"

YOTEL Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Everything about the Yotel Edinburgh is great, apart from the cost. I presume that the price is lower once the Fringe/Festival/Tattoo is over."

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, friendly staff, and the area was perfect! Central to a lot of food, bars, and great views all around."

Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh
