Aparthotel Adagio Edinburgh Royal Mile
The location was perfect. You are close to everything but also sort of tucked away at the same time. The room has everything you need.

Garner Edinburgh Haymarket by IHG
Across the road from Haymarket, decent bar adjoining hotel. Room quite small but fine for a couple of nights or so. Only problem was seal on window wasnt great so could hear qind whistling and traffic noise. Black out blind also had a tear which let in light too early. Decent value though.
