Top George Street Hotel Reviews

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

6/10 Okay

"I understand that the building is old and either doesn't have air conditioning or it doesn't work very well. However, other things could be done to help cool the rooms and move air around. For example, install ceiling fans. That would help. Also, the fan that was in our room was so rickety and worn out that we had to brace it with our suitcase so it would stand upright. The hallways were unbearably hot."

Hilton Edinburgh Carlton

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed here for 2 nights and can say with complete honesty it lives up to the usual high standards associated with the Hilton brand. We ordered room service on night one which arrived in very quick time and tasted delicious everything we ordered was fresh and great quality. The beds at the Hilton are always a highlight for me with quality linens and amazingly comfortable pillows you’ll be sure to get a solid nights sleep after long hours exploring Edinburgh. Our room was ready for when we arrived at 10:30 and the staff at the desk were extremely helpful. My only foible with the room was that upon looking under our bed there was a small amount of litter from previous guests, maybe a one off due to the small amount however maybe something for the hotel to address. To conclude regardless of the small amount of litter found under the bed I would say this hotel deserves 5 stars for everything, I would highly recommend staying here and should I ever return to Edinburgh I would love to stay again."

ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge - Royal Mile

10/10 Excellent

"My wife and I truly enjoyed our stay. Great location close to public transport and a good mix of restaurants. We loved the hotel breakfast but would’ve preferred if they started serving at 6 AM instead of 7 AM just to make it easier to connect with morning tour groups."

Britannia Hotel Edinburgh

6/10 Okay

"The location is good. However the hotel is a low 3 star. It is need of an urgent update. It needs decorating from top to bottom. The chain saves money ( but not in their charges) by not providing room safes, fridges, air conditioning or even cleaning the rooms daily to empty bins and put in new loo rolls. They expect the guests to do this, but don’t reflect this in the price. Front desk staff were very helpful and friendly. Staff on duty in the restaurant need to have some simple training to actually keep all areas around the food clean. They simply stand around. They need to be focussed on wiping tables immediately they are free, any spillages by the food, get that wiped, anything on the floor get it picked up not keep walking over it. No concept of hygiene or what the customer sees. In a quality hotel this simply would not happen. This can be fixed very easily and quickly. A supervisor perhaps needs to be supervising!!"
