Top Edinburgh Fringe Festival Hotel Reviews

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"NO AC, BUT HOTEL IS AWESOME"

Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Had a view of the old town overlooking Edinburgh Castle and the Cook monument. Access to Tram a few yards away and next door to Marks & Spencer. If you have a car there is no lot at the hotel but why offer a great discount code to Q-park, which is a 10 min walk from Hotel. It's not a bad walk; probably typical in any large European city. It is a good value. Get the breakfast it's a very ample buffet."

Wilde Aparthotels, Edinburgh, Grassmarket

10/10 Excellent

"Location was fantastic … felt very safe … had early and late check out (for a small fee ). Held our luggage until we needed to leave. Street pay to park but also a Parking garage very close to property. Staff was lovely, friendly, and accommodating. Pay Laundry machine on site was useful. Side note: they do not supply washcloths. Bring your own or buy some lovely soap and cloth at a shop."

ibis Edinburgh Centre Royal Mile

10/10 Excellent

"We booked a twin room for our 3 nights/4 days visit to Edinburgh. The room was compact, but clean and comfortable. The staff were very helpful, welcoming and friendly. The self-service breakfast was available until 10.30am and there was lots of it. The hotel is very central, less than a minute's walk from the Royal Mile. The main attractions such as Edinburgh Castle, Holyrood Palace, Scottish National Gallery, etc are all within easy walking distance of the hotel. There are also plenty of restaurants and bars a few minutes walk from the hotel. The hotel is a short walk from Edinburgh Waverley Train Station. If you are carrying luggage its easier to walk along the bridge than up the stairs of Fleshmarket Close, which are long and very steep!"
