The weather wasn't ideal - even though it was the end of May we assumed we would have sun / cloudy weather. It rained, a lot. We managed to visit Arthur's Seat - this was incredible and one of my main reasons for visiting. We saw Edinburgh Castle, visited a few restaurants and shops as well.

There’s lots to do for a short city trip. Loads of art galleries, which are of particular interest for us. We spent hours walking and visiting the various historical sites. The botanical garden was very enjoyable. There are also more than enough good bars, pubs and restaurants. Transport is also easy, we visited Leith and Portobello, both were worth the short trips out of the centre.

This amazing city has a great deal to offer tourists, from the fantastic Edinburgh Castle to the Edinburgh Dungeons and every imposing facade and museum in between. It helps that the people themselves are warm and welcoming. I enjoyed myself immensely and wish I'd spent more time there.

Fantastic transport, easy to navigate and reasonably priced.
Fantastic transport, easy to navigate and reasonably priced. Bus journeys capped at £4 daily irrespective of how far travelled. So many wonderful things to see and stunning views and architecture. Great shopping and even a beach with wonderful cafes/restaurants.
The Voco Edinburgh Haymarket hotel is a short walking distance from the Haymarket Tram and train station. Great location to get to the old Town city center of Edinburgh - within 10-15 min walk assuming you are good at following a map and can find the street names on the buildings. The staff is very friendly. Loved having a managed sit down area for breakfast. Very good selection of breakfast foods - both hot and cold. Loved having all the toiletries in large containers. You don't need to bring your own. Very comfortable room.
You have to check in at the pub, which is only around the corner from the hotel. Absolutely loved the staff! They were ever so accommodating, especially with complimentary drinks at arrival. Loved the location with it being a good walk to Edinburgh City Centre - where there was a plethora of independent cafes and bakeries selling all sorts of goodies.
When you're done exploring Edinburgh, then the bed doesn't go amiss, along with the en suite facility.
To reiterate, a great family owned establishment at a great location.
Finding the hotel was easy enough, it was a little out of the way from the city centre, but still within a walkable distance to everything. The staff were really friendly and we felt looked after, couldn't really complain about the breakfast; not the best I've had, but considering it was included for a very reasonable price; it's a bit of a bargain, especially when visiting Edinburgh around the Christmas period. The room was a good size and off the main road, very quiet and all facilities were working as expected.
Liam the deputy manager was like a little oracle! Amazingly helpful, friendly and so knowledgeable on everything to do with the hotel and Edinburgh. Super sized beds that are comfy and all the staff including the housekeeping, went over and above to make you feel welcome. The welcome drinks on arrival are a lovely touch too. Taxi's regularly stop outside making it easy to get into the city centre. Great restaurants nearby too.
The staff is just the best. So friendly and helpful!
Loved the location (walkable distance to the city centre, tram and bus stop conveniently nearby). It is very quiet both in the area and in the hotel.
The place is very cozy and clean. The have all the necessary amenities in the room - hairdryer, soaps etc. And even little sweets and tea-coffee making facilities.
We also ordered breakfast and it was delicious.
The location was a bit of a distance from the city centre but easily walkable and there were plenty of buses from just round the corner. The room was perfectly adequate with everything I needed. It was lovely having a breakfast delivered to my room every day and there was a big selection to choose from. The price was excellent compared to other hotels/guest houses in Edinburgh. Would highly recommend.
Excellent location, bus stop right outside the hotel. On check in, Lewis was amazing, full of information about Edinburgh and very helpful. Breakfast was very good and the room was comfortable but dated. I believe the hotel is in the process of being updated. All in all a very good, reasonably priced hotel close to the city centre
Everything! Great location, tram right outside of hotel with easy access to Edinburgh city centre and lovely restaurants/bars/coffee shops in Leith for the evening and a morning walk.
Very friendly and accommodating staff.
Great breakfast included.
Comfortable room and bed, very quiet.
Extremely good value for money!
The location is perfect, in city centre, in walking distance to both the Old Town and the New Town, and this hotel is great value for money. I was worried that the room might be noisy because of the location, but we were in the new part of the hotel and it was very quiet. It was also very clean and comfortable.
Having a lift to get up to the 3rd floor. Nice comfortable bed and very quiet! Nice sized room. Nice bathroom but no view. Perfect location on Princes Street and opposite Waverley Station. The absolute best Scottish breakfast in a dining room with stunning views of Edinburgh castle and the old town.
3rd stay here and this time we were given a room facing main road it was quite noisy due to constant traffic....that is our only down side, we will definitely be going back but will ask for a quieter room .... definitely recommend this hotel...only 15 minutes on bus to Edinburgh City centre...
all staff were super friendly & welcoming. Food in the restaurant was lovely! Not too far from city centre around 30 mins on bus.
Swimming pool was a bonus as well as all the other facilities! Would definitely book here when visiting edinburgh again. Not disappointed about the hotel at all!
The hotel is a newly styled hotel. The room is spacious with a pantry with fridge, microwave, dishwasher n a sink. It provides good quality of shampoo, conditioner, bath gel n body lotion. The buffet breakfast is good too. It near U of Edinburgh n walkable distance to the old town.
The location of the hotel was perfect, a 10min walk from the city centre.
The room was so spacious and spotless.
The staff were also exceptional Robert the night manager was great to deal with. If returning to Edinburgh we’ll stay here again.
Everything! Large 2 bedroom apartment with two large bedrooms, large kitchen, large living room, everything brand new and bright and beautiful! Perfect location within walking distance to old town Edinburgh
Great location next door to Edinburgh Zoo. Buses leave every few minutes from outside the front of the hotel which take you to the city centre in about 15 minutes. Very good breakfast, lots of choice.
The location was excellent - very central. Edinburgh castle, Holyrood, Old Town, New Town, Princes Street all within easy walking distance. Buses, trams and trains nearby also.
Location to airport and tram stop into Edinburgh city centre and attractions. Compared to other hotel's you get what you pay for. All in all, it was value for money.
