Wilde Aparthotels, Edinburgh, Grassmarket

10/10 Excellent

"The room was perf6, in a perfect location in grass market and had a stunning view of the castle out of the window"

Aparthotel Adagio Edinburgh Royal Mile

10/10 Excellent

"We had a fantastic stay at the Adagio. We were a family of four staying ina one bed apartment. The apartment was ready earlier than stated (we arrived for about 1pm) and so managed to check in early. The apartment itself had loads of space, plenty of room for four of us, and was clean. Breakfast was great, loads to choose from (hot and cold) and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Excellent location just a short walk from the train station and a lovely stroll (uphill) to reach the castle along the Edinburgh Mile. Couldn’t have asked for a better stay. Would highly recommend!"
