Top Leith Docks Hotel Reviews

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

8/10 Good

"The staff was excellent. The rooms were very warm and they provided a small oscillating fan. So the windows were open resulting in a very noisy evening"

Radisson Blu Hotel, Edinburgh City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location, room was comfortable, overall good choice"

YOTEL Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"The place is good value, modern, very conveniently located in the New Town (although a bit of a walk from Waverley station, that is always my arrival point in Edinburgh), and the staff are friendly and helpful. It's popular with groups of travelers and sometimes crowded in the reception area (but that's perhaps a sign of how successful the hotel is)."

Pillars House

10/10 Excellent

"We were greeted with enthusiasm and a smile by Anthony who got our room ready as we arrived earlier than expected. Great amenities and good value. Very convenient to Tram stop."

Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff at this hotel, (particularly Amos and Sharon) were exceptional. Unfortunately I had the misfortune of falling quite ill during my stay, during breakfast of all times on the day of my checkout, and these individuals responded to my situation in an extremely professional manner. They catered to my needs at the time with tremendous empathy and concern, and made sure my wife was informed and comfortable with the medical procedures of a foreign country regarding ambulatory transportation, and her accommodations for that night. Even though the hotel was fully booked, they managed to secure a room for her so she didn't have to relocate. Obviously I have nothing but praise for this hotel. If I'm ever in Edinburgh again, this will be my preferred choice. I am back in Canada now and doing much better and wish to express my sincere thanks as well as utmost congratulations to these two outstanding individuals. This hotel is very fortunate to have them in their employ. ."

Virgin Hotels Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"We were upgraded to a larger room and had early check in. The room was really nice, clean, comfy bed, and well laid out. You couldn’t ask for a more ideal location. One of us fell ill and the concierge team was exceptional - locating a doctor to come to our room, while checking in on us our entire stay. A top notch hotel, with some really cool public spaces and a pretty good bar."

Apex Waterloo Place Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Was a nice room. Not very big, but its expected. I was worried about the gym as the photos online show a poorly equipped room. However, they have upgraded since then! It is still a small room, where 1-3 people can workout at the same time. But they have dumbbells up to 22KG, a seated bench press up to 100KG, a leg extension machine, a decent rower and 2 other cardio machines. Its a big hot in there and I'm not sure if the window opens, but its much better than I was expecting. Location is good, off to one end of town more but was quite and still easy to walk to main transit stations."

Ocean Mist Leith

10/10 Excellent

"The entire experience was wonderful and the customer service was exceptional. I would recommend it to anyone visiting Edinburgh."

Holiday Inn Express - Edinburgh City Centre by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, good location and a good stay"
