Top John Knox House Hotel Reviews

CODE - The Court, Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Good, some lockers werent locking properly, plugs in bunk were limited. Rather have a plug than a charging port that barely charges."

ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge - Royal Mile

8/10 Good

"Generally a pleasant hotel, great position for the sites , plenty of restaurants and local buses. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Only a couple of things that could be improved on. One of the lifts was out of order for the whole 5 days we were there so there was a bit of a jam for the other one at times. and also the breakfast was a bit overpriced for the continental option being the same £13.50 as for the cooked. But overall a good mid range hotel option"

Apex Waterloo Place Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is pretty and they have sauna!"

YOTEL Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, close to Waverley Station."

Point A Edinburgh Haymarket

8/10 Good

"Nice stay - rooms are small but functional. So if you know you’ll be out and about and not spending much time in your room this works well! Breakfast included was nice but note there’s no “hot breakfast”. Think pastries, fruit, boiled egg, yogurt, etc"

Aparthotel Adagio Edinburgh Royal Mile

8/10 Good

"The staff at the front desk were very nice and helpful"

Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

8/10 Good

"Right on Grassmarket is centrally located. Area wasn’t noisy which I didn’t expect. Room was clean, well appointed and kept up. Staff very helpful. Only complaint is that television selection wasn’t great. Not bad but not great."

Holiday Inn Express - Edinburgh City Centre by IHG

10/10 Excellent
