Top Melrose Abbey Hotel Reviews

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great location, great staff!"

CODE - The Court, Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"It’s been a while since I stayed in a youth hostel. This one felt simultaneously like a hip prison-themed bar and a place where young and mature professionals can work and sleep. Everyone was considerate and helpful. If I had known, I would not have booked my private but sparse room in the suburbs for my last night."
