Top People's Story Museum 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."

Apex Waterloo Place Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is pretty and they have sauna!"

YOTEL Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel and everything very clean and well maintained. Very comfortable stay. They were able to hold our bags. Would stay here again, do recommend"

Hilton Edinburgh Carlton

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."

Holyrood Aparthotel

8/10 Good

"Good location right on the Royal Mile. No views. Nice to have a kitchen area for eating in every so often. Liked having the OJ, milk, cheese , and yogurt in the fridge and the musilli for breakfast. We just bought our own fruit."

Courtyard by Marriott Edinburgh

8/10 Good

"This hotel is a solid choice. It has a relatively good location and was very comfortable. We did have some malfunctions with the lock on our room and had to change our keys. The grout on the tile in the shower was dirty, but not so dirty that you did not want to use the shower. I don’t think these issues are indicative of the hotel as a whole."
