Top Arthur's Seat Hotel Reviews

Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location"

ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge - Royal Mile

10/10 Excellent

"Comfy beds, great pillows, helpful staff, delicious breakfast buffet, had a lift, right in the heart of old town - 10/10"

Holyrood Aparthotel

10/10 Excellent

"The apartment was very spacious, well equipped and comfortable!"

Market Street Hotel

8/10 Good

"Everything about the hotel is excellent. Room, location, cleanliness. We just had a really rough check in. We had asked for an early check in months prior, and were told they would do everything to accommodate us. We arrived at 8:00am and weren’t given our room until 2:30. Checkout isn’t until 11, so expected 12 the latest. We were not given a time window and basically ignored in the beautiful lobby."

The Scott

10/10 Excellent

"The building is gorgeous, the room spacious and so comfortable, but the staff is the standout here. Cheerful, helpful, and so accommodating. They made the trip for us. The breakfast is amazing - enough to carry you through lunch and beyond. The hotel is a wee bit off the beaten track if you’re wishing to be on the Royal Mile every day, but the local bus service is excellent and you are in the midst of everything within 15-20 minutes. Thank you for everything. It was a treat."

CODE - The Court, Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Godspower and Mohammed were very helpful with helping get access to my room when my phone died and we had good conversations about valuable life experiences. 100% recommend"
