Hotels near George St in Edinburgh

Solo visit as visiting the city, Edinburgh always been on my ”bucket” list and this hotel is just a gem! Not a 5 star building but most definitely a 5 star experience. I was met by Anthony who checked me in promptly and efficiently, he was very informative and helped me with a few tourist things. My room was perfectly fine, a little dated but nothing drastic. Breakfast perfectly cooked and everything you could have wanted, loved the porridge. I will be back again!

Well placed hotel on Fredrick Street within walking distance of most landmarks but with a price to match! Rooms basic but very clean. The shower over bath was great until the temperature started changing! Generic soap dispenser by sink & bath/shower but no other complimentary guest accessories in bathroom. Hairdryer in room but no close mirror for makeup application which was rather disappointing. There was a kettle and assorted teas/coffees within the room and a fresh water dispenser on the landing. Major issues, however, were with beds & noise. Beds are standard 4’6” doubles throughout - no king sizes, we were told. We were a couple & had a room with a double & two twin beds allocated to us. All beds in our room were very firm…not an ounce of comfort in any! We ended up using the double & a single. We visited during a hot spell & as there is no air con in rooms we asked for and were given a fan. However, we did need to have the windows open too. Unfortunately there are a few bars opposite that had a collection of people outside until 3am midweek - not conductive to a restful night but aware there is/was little the hotel could do to manage the noise and may well have been a one off occurrence. Breakfast (if included) was at a restaurant opposite - plentiful & excellent. All in all would not stay again as feel could get better value for money elsewhere and probably a bigger bed!

Hotel is close to Haymarket station and well connected to public transport just 10 min walk. Service is good

This is a good place for backpackers. We stayed here for a couple of nights in a 12 bed dormitory. The beds were good with ample space to keep our stuffs. Toilers were clean. The receptionists were friendly and approachable. The check-in time is 2 PM, so if you arrive early, you'll need to wait in the locker room and help yourself to some coffee. Or else you can keep your bags in a locker and roam around the city till you are ready to check-in. Early check-in is also available, but subject to availability of beds/rooms. Overall, quite good.

The shower leaks we had to put the towel down in front of the shower door… The room feels like hospital rooms but overall we had a good stay at the hotel. It’s 10-15 minute walk to the city center. There’s a gym on the basement floor also

had a fantastic stay here! there were 10 of us who all booked out a dorm. was quiet, clean and good quality. there are two bathrooms and two toilets per dorm which i thought was very good. our room wasn’t ready for an extra half an hour so they gave us free drink tokens for the bar! the reason this doesn’t get 5 stars is because it was awfully hot in the room - even with the window open! there didn’t seem to be air con - we wondered even if the hostel had put the heating on? we didn’t try the breakfast. the hotel bar had decent food but long waits.

We stayed here on the last days of the Fringe festival so we chose it for its reasonable price. Location is very good, I'd say 15 minutes walking from the centre. Nothing fancy as it's a student accommodation but overall clean and pleasant. The only thing I would improve is cleanliness and temperature in the corridors as the carpets are stained and old, and it was too hot. As for the room, despite being tiny, it didn't feel claustrophobic, thanks also to the the big window, and I liked the bathroom quite new, bright, and clean. In conclusion, I'd definitely recommend staying here.

I've never stayed in a hostel before, let alone in a former jail revamped as one ! Besides the gimmick, the Court is a wonderful place to stay if you are visiting Edinburgh, whether on a budget or not : fantastic location near the St Giles cathedral (where city tours seemingly start from), super friendly staff and surprisingly clean amenities (first time experience in a hostel so I didn't know what to expect quite frankly). Would definitely recommend !

We stayed here for 2 nights and arrived home today. Firstly all the staff were absolutely lovely!! We was so happy and to say they’re dog friendly really made our stay much better. The bedroom was spacious, the bed was huge, comfy & the shower was great! The cleanliness was 1000/1000 and we would definitely be back!! We didn’t have breakfast but the prices are cheap & I really recommend staying here. My dog loved it, I did tell the staff not to tidy my room and when we come back they had (which I felt bad about because it was a mess & our dog had stuffing everywhere from his teddy) but Thankyou for cleaning it anyways. Fresh clean plenty of towels, the only thing I would say is please add proper toiletries e g shampoo and conditioner as my hair did not like the shampoo. All in all it’s in the city centre, the windows open and you get a huge fan in your room!! The tv works, the WiFi works & it’s next door to tesco express, sainsburys & pubs!

This was our second time at this hotel and we stayed for almost a week. You can't beat the location on George Street, right downtown, close to shops and restaurants. The hotel is beautiful and the rooms and bathrooms are very nice. The king bed had a good mattress and pillows. There is a safe. They seem to have made upgrades since our last pre-covid stay, including air-conditioning in (all?) rooms. As you would expect in a big city, the rooms are quite small and the hotel is not exactly quiet; also depending on where your room faces. We were right by the elevator, which I generally don't like. I wonder if it's because we booked through our credit card and not direct. It seems there is sometimes a ”penalty'. The rooms are supplied daily with water, delicious cookies and snacks. You can make individual cups of drip coffee in a filter, which is much better than instant coffee but not as good as a Nespresso, IMHO. We had breakfast included and the Printing Press is just wonderful, for breakfast, any meal and later evening cocktails and whiskey. The Burr & Co is a coffee shop, also right next door, with tables outside. Love that place. The hotel has great service. We lost a suitcase and got daily support in checking on the status and changing the address on the delivery. There seemed to be a shortage on hair conditioner and we didn't have a sign for do-not-disturb the first day and got woken at 8 AM, but that didn't spoil our enjoyment of the hotel stay. We expect to be back.
