The staff were very nice, and accommodating, thats about the best part. There was no hand towel, no hairdryer. I had to ask for hairdryer and he wanted me to bring it back. I said but it’s for in the morning. He said ok keep it, but first hotel without a hair dryer in the room. We had a twin room and it was cramped beyond belief. You had to turn away from the shower because it’s right next to the bed, with a mirror that can see who’s in the shower. No privacy at all from another person. The bathroom door was plywood? About 1/4” thick with magnetic closure. It was pretty quiet in room 1. Breakfast was just cereal and bread, no eggs, waffles, bacon. Just bread, canned peaches.
Not close to anything historic, had to rent a bolt driver to get us places, or take the bus.
We will never stay here again, best thing again was the staff.

Despite a 3 stars, this hotel had all the comfort we need.
The room is quite spacey.
In particular we loved the several surfaces where to lay stuff and clothes. Table, tv table, 2 bed tables, spacey closet, a chair , a poef and a couch. Surfaces are really important to store belongings while on vacation.
Special mention to the bathroom, we believe it was recently updated. The shower was amazing and big! The basin quite spacey.
The hotel was clean and comfortable .
There is no fridge in the room but that was not a problem for us.
Only 10/12 minutes walking from city center, a convenient supermarket 3 minutes walking.
Check in and check out was very fast.
Just around the corner from Calton Hill, the 4-star Apex Waterloo Place hotel epitomizes luxury living in the heart of Edinburgh.

The staff were wonderful - they went over and above to compensate for a relatively minor inconvenience of having no cable to watch tele in the evening. They not only made our airport taxi arrangements, set up the wake-up call but packed us breakfast bags to go since we had a very early flight.

Edinburgh is probably one of the most beautiful cities to visit in the UK. In general, I suggest going thorugh the streets of the city centre, visit the castle and all that area, and enjoying all the history of the city. I love also doing shopping in Edinburgh and there are so many places to eat amazing food from all the countries. There are many ways to go around thorugh the different parts of the city, for example bus or taxi or simply walking.

The city is wonderful.
The city is wonderful. It is so clean and the roads and streets are wide and open. I would recommend the Royal Mile and the Castle. We had a great visit to the Vaults under the city with a superb guide Darren from Auld Reekie Tours. Another beautiful place to visit is Dean Village. The key tourist areas were busy but accessible, apart from being full of selfie taking obsessives who seemed oblivious to traffic and fellow pedestrians.
The Tram to the airport was cheap and quick (£7.50)

I love Edinburgh, such an open city.
I love Edinburgh, such an open city. A combination of old and new with lovely views everywhere. The transport is amazing, it's so easy to get around. Deacon's House is a lovely cafe in old town, and the National Museum is worth a visit. Lovely building. Hanover 71 is another lovely cafe and there's a chain of Scandinavian bakeries worth a visit. The market at Stockbridge on Sundays is lovely on a sunny day. Check out all the Gormleys too.

One of my favourite cities in the world.
One of my favourite cities in the world. I went there as a child regularly, buy hadn't been for a quarter of a century.
The historic centre is still wonderful, and walkable. And it's now tbh much nicer than when I was a kid, much cleaner. And has things like trams.
It's perfect by train, because the station is slap-bang in the nice bit and is not overwhelmed by volume of miserable passengers like in e.g. Paris or London.
And all the really good bits like the castle, Arthurs Seat, Princes St and Scott monument, are all walkable.

Loved the architecture and the many alleyways that led to different parts of the city - lots of places to eat and drink - trams and buses are an excellent was to get around. Very busy place but if you come off the Royal Mile it’s a little quieter

We took a taxi from our hotel to the start of the Golden Mile then walked into the Castle quadrant, There were a great number of visitors at the Castle mostly foreign tourists, we enjoyed being there, however there was a lot of scaffolding and gantries being built and a number of maintenance vehicles parked which rather spoilt the views.
Edinburgh is a wonderful city, the atmosphere is brilliant and the Scottish people very friendly
The hotel was extremely comfy and relax to stay in Edinburgh, the staffs were so friendly and nice.
Don't be hesitated of the location, there is a bus station near to the hotel and easy to reach to the city centre.
We made a change of date arrival at last minute, but the staff took us request, so lucky and so happy to extend one more day there, thanks for all.
The scotland full breakfast has improved a little bit but tasty as local as can be.
This is a lovely quaint hotel. We received a warm welcome on arrival, and recommendations on places to see, and where to eat and drink. The room was clean and cosy, had a nice view of the street, and included all of the expected amenities (tea/coffee, TV, hair dryer, toiletries). The location was a short walk from the city centre and close to a tram stop. I would recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Edinburgh.
Amazing location, just two doors from the Royal Mile and St Giles’ Cathedral. 3-4 blocks from the National Museum of Scotland, where we spent a full day exploring.
Our room was elegant and looked out over the park below Edinburgh Castle. Nice to have a mini kitchen.
The staff is friendly and helpful. Guido, Alison, and Anna all helped make our stay memorable. We look forward to returning to Fraser Suites.
Located on a Peaceful Pleasant Street, I Visited for the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Choice of 4 Buses heading into City Centre, A Black Cab Taxi late at Night cost reasonable £14, I enjoyed the additional Private Lounge at property with Sofa and Dining Table Litterally Just for Us as Guests to use Much more than A Hotel could be Offering The Host was very informative helpful
We stayed here as our last stop before returning home from a 12 day trip around Scotland. Location right outside the train station which was perfect for our tired feet. Also right around the corner from the stairs to the Royal Mile and Edinburgh Castle. Clear, comfy and a great way to get a good nights sleep before the long flights over the pond.
Everything you need for a short stay while exploring Edinburgh. It's a small room but clean, comfortable, and warm, and that's all you need. The shower had good water pressure, which we always appreciate.
Friendly staff. Easy commute to city centre and the airport with bus stops just outside the hotel.
Breakfast is also passable.
This is a lovely new hotel in the heart of Old Town. The rooms were beautiful, spacious and modern. The hotel staff were super friendly and helpful. You were always greeted warmly. Loved the food as well as the innovative cocktails we tried. Everything was first class. We will definitely be back!
all staff were super friendly & welcoming. Food in the restaurant was lovely! Not too far from city centre around 30 mins on bus.
Swimming pool was a bonus as well as all the other facilities! Would definitely book here when visiting edinburgh again. Not disappointed about the hotel at all!
It’s the best location in Edinburgh for easy access to the train station (just across the street), Old Town and New Town. It’s about as central as you can get. The room was clean, modern and had everything we needed. The Passcode made it easy so we didn’t forget a key ever.
The hotel was in the best location in the city centre right on the royal mile. Our room was clean and bed extremely comfortable. Breakfast was lovely too. We didn’t spend much time in the hotel but staff were friendly and bar area looked lovely too
Very friendly and helpful staff, location is great for old town/Royal Mile area/city centre. Numerous restaurants of various cuisines in immediate area. Will definitely be staying at this hotel next time we visit Edinburgh
Really well set up, and much more comfortable than a hotel. We also enjoyed being within easy reach of city centre while still being in a quieter, less touristy part of town. It was the perfect base for exploring Edinburgh!
The Staff, location was excellent with great bus link connection to/from hotel... great location to Old Town, to New Town, to restaurants.. Big towels a plus... The whole thing worked... Thank you 💫
The Yotel Edinburgh is perfectly located near Princes Street in the City Centre. It‘s very clean and modern, it has a hotel bar and nice personell. Everythings fine - i‘m definitely coming back!
Great hotel, close to city centre and superb value.

Will definitely stay again when next in Edinburgh
