Hotels with Breakfast in Edinburgh

The hotel's location is great, very close to the train station, and all the attractions are within walking distance, so there's no need for a car. The hotel lobby is on the first floor, and you need to take an elevator. The bedding was very soft and comfortable, and the pillows weren't too high, just right. There's also a M&S supermarket downstairs, which is very convenient.

This hotel is ideally located right next to Haymarket Station, making travel super convenient. We were able to walk to all the city's attractions in just over ten minutes. Our room was compact but well-designed, spotless, and dry. The bedding was wonderfully soft and comfortable, the shower had consistent water pressure, and the smart lighting was a thoughtful touch. The front desk staff were incredibly warm and attentive, and check-in was a breeze.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but I feel that other travellers should know what to expect. I stayed in a single room on the top floor and was very disappointed, especially considering the price. The room was much smaller than I had expected and felt rather cramped. I paid £136 through Trip.com, even with a discount, and I simply did not feel that the room offered value for money. The room looked tired and dated. The carpet did not look very fresh, the furniture was old-fashioned but not in a charming or historic way, and there were marks on the walls that could easily have been touched up. The bedside lamp also appeared to be damaged, as the lampshade was noticeably crooked and could not be adjusted. I would also like to mention that the room and bathroom were clean, and the bed linen was fresh and clean. I knew when I booked that the room did not include a safe or a fridge, as this was mentioned in the description. However, for a four-star hotel at this price, I still feel that a safe and at least a small fridge should be provided. The television was also very small, and overall the room felt very basic for the price and hotel rating. The bathroom itself was a reasonable size, but it was not very practical. There was no shelf above the sink for toiletries, which was inconvenient. In the shower, the large shampoo and conditioner bottles were placed on the floor of the shower, meaning I had to keep bending down to reach them. I would also like to mention that access to the upper floors involves a very steep spiral staircase. I was aware that there was no lift, but I did not expect the staircase to be so steep and difficult to climb. As I was not comfortable in the room, I asked whether it might be possible to move to a different room. Unfortunately, there were no other rooms available. I had originally planned to stay in Edinburgh for another night, but I decided to move to a different hotel instead. The location of the hotel is good and convenient for Waverley Station, and the staff were polite and friendly. However, my overall experience did not meet my expectations for a four-star hotel, especially at this price. Unfortunately, I would not choose to stay at this hotel again.

Great location at the top of the road from Ocean Terminal and the Royal Yacht Britannia. The tram stop to the city centre is here too. Staff were friendly and professional, the room was clean and comfortable. The buffet breakfast was okay, limited choice of hot food (bacon, sausage, scrambled eggs, baked beans and tomatoes). It would have been nice to have some jam or marmalade to choose from as the only spreads were butter, margarine and marmite.

Overall, I was quite satisfied, though the price wasn't cheap at £2500 per night (including a sofa bed, but no breakfast). 1. The room wasn't huge, but it was small yet perfectly formed, even boasting a bathtub. The sofa bed was surprisingly large, around 1.45m wide, almost like a double bed, which exceeded my expectations. 2. The breakfast was quite substantial. Having stayed in many hotels across the UK, this one offered the best breakfast. However, British breakfasts generally pale in comparison to those in China, with most hotels offering the same ten or so standard items. So, for a UK hotel, this one was pretty good. That said, it was also pricey at £21 per person, though children ate free. 3. The hotel's location was decent; it was about a 20-minute walk to the castle. Edinburgh is much like Chongqing in China, full of hills and stairs. What looked like a 20-minute walk from the train station ended up taking us at least half an hour with luggage, and we even had to drag our bags up stairs. If you're not carrying heavy loads, it's fine, but with luggage, you might want to consider taking a taxi. 4. This hotel surprisingly has a pool, and it was quite clean, though it was small and felt rather stuffy. The hotel doesn't have air conditioning, but it does have a fresh air system. I visited in July, and it wasn't hot; in fact, I still needed a light blanket in the room.

Overall, my stay was very pleasant. The university campus atmosphere was lovely, and the environment was quiet and relaxed. The apartment building has excellent security; you need to swipe your room card to enter, which made me feel very safe. 📍 **Transportation:** From Edinburgh Waverley Station, I took a bus to the Commonwealth Pool stop. From there, it was a 7-minute walk to the front desk with my luggage to check in. Within a 10-minute walk of the apartment, there's a commercial street with plenty of restaurants, making dining very convenient. 🏠 **Room Type:** I booked a twin room with an private bathroom. The room was clean and bright, though the space felt a bit cramped after placing my 28-inch suitcase. 🚿 **Bathroom:** The apartment doesn't provide shower gel or shampoo, so you need to bring your own. The showerhead was fixed and not adjustable, and the water pressure was a bit low. The bathroom has a heated towel rail, but the towels provided were quite dirty, so I'd recommend bringing your own. 🍳 **Communal Kitchen:** Other guests mentioned a communal kitchen, but we tried swiping our card and couldn't open the door, so we weren't able to use it. 🧺 **Facilities:** There's a self-service laundry room on the LG floor. Washing starts from £2 for about 30 minutes, and drying costs £1 for an hour, which is very affordable. The apartment doesn't provide laundry detergent, so you need to bring your own. 🍽️ **Breakfast:** You need your room card to enter the restaurant. The dining area is spacious, and the breakfast selection covers all the basics and was sufficient. You can enjoy breakfast before checking out. 🧳 **Service:** Free luggage storage is available, which is a great bonus! 👍

everytg was amazing. we struggled to check in (after 5pm) and there was no staff. we reached abt 10pm at night and was left stranded at the door, no access code given at all to enter main gate … called and contacted property but no one picked up. if ur not going to have a 24/7 reception, at least make sure u hv someone tending to emergency help… after what was 30mins of waiting and calling did a guest walk down to open the door for us … horrible check in experience but everytg else was good

Stayed for 2 nights. Very quiet hotel in a great location right outside tramstop from airport. Didnt eat in restaurant or have breakfast there, staff were lovely, bed very comfortable, Only issue i had was that i would like to have been able to open a window for fresh air. Would definately stay here again, cant wait.

Nice functional hotel, about 20 minutes from town by walk but very accessible by bus or tram. A few late night restaurants also close by. The room was clean, medium size but was sufficient for what we needed. Friendly and helpful staff. The bathroom was small but clean, the flush of the toilet was a bit tricky and may need to be looked into. There was also free parking if lucky just on the street in-front of the hotel after 6 pm. Overall a very good place to stay for our holiday.

The location is excellent. it’s close to the station and within walking distance of many iconic attractions. However, the check-in time is quite late, and I don’t think scanning the barcode is really necessary. After a long journey, I would also prefer to have the bed already made by the staff rather than having to make it myself, as it’s quite inconvenient. Unfortunately, my roommates were also very loud between 1–3 a.m. They threw another guest’s belongings onto the floor because there was confusion over the bed assignment. I understand this was the hostel’s mistake for assigning the same bed to someone else while it was still occupied, but the way this roommate handled the situation was very rude and inconsiderate. The noise ended up waking everyone in the room.
