"This was a beautiful apartment to stay in, with the perfect mix of historic charm and fresh, modern finishes. We did have a mix-up with our booking, as the room was reserved for three people but didn’t have a sleeping option for the third guest. However, reception responded quickly and made things right, which we really appreciated. Overall, we had a lovely stay and I would definitely stay here again."

Top Canongate Tolbooth Hotel Reviews

Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean, excellent breakfast, excellent staff."

YOTEL Edinburgh, Select by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice and clean place. In a decent location to walk to things and staff will order you a taxi. Breakfast was okay, appreciated their bar and kiosk area. I had four people in a double and bunk bed room and it was a good size"

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"It was fantastic"

Apex Waterloo Place Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Front desk staff very helpful!"

Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at the Leonardo was perfect, the staff was so helpful, it's in a great location to get anywhere in the city, and the place felt quite quiet for being so centrally located. So glad we added the breakfast every day, the selection was great and it saved us having to find new places to eat every morning during our week long stay."

Market Street Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We love to stay in this hotel when we come to Edinburgh. The rooms are so comfortable and well throught through. We also love having a glass of champagne in the bar whilst watching the sun set over the Edinburgh skyline. Make sure you get full value from your stay with the complimentary mini-bar and in-room coffee maker, etc."

Motel One Edinburgh-Royal

8/10 Good

"Really liked the hotel just wish there would have been more description about the room. The photos show a room with big windows hot to the hotel and it was a small window looking right at a wall. Was so bummed out! Also keep in mind there is no AC so you’ll probably want to open your windows which is fine expect it’s near a pub I heard everything from singing and drunk people up until around 4am very loudly and then people fighting. Other than that great location."

W Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Superb hotel in great location. Room with 2 beds was spacious and having the balcony was very nice. Only issues are that: 1) the bathroom is small and awkwardly designed compared to rest of the room which also resulted in the floor getting flooded anytime a shower was taken, and 2) gym needs additional weight machines to make it more complete and up to expected standards for such a nice and modern hotel."

Holyrood Aparthotel

8/10 Good

"It was nice to have laundry inside the unit"
