Bad place to eat healthily. Visibly obese teenagers show that food in education has yet to be introduced. There is no serious bread to be had, only sponge bread that I thought had disappeared in the last century. What is boasted as sour dough bread is a travesty, with sugar added. Sugar is for cakes. Organic vegetarian restaurants are absent. There are only two small organic food stores in this metropole.
Public transport gets you almost everywhere, for a modest cap sum. Air quality is poor on account that all buses stil run on diesel. Electric buses for this small city should be mandatory.

Great places to eat, lots of walking and places of historical significance, lovely architecture, the Castle is amazing, the Chocolatarium is amazing, the Lind and Lime gin distillery is amazing. We had a lovely time exploring and getting to know the city and its lovely people.
We are definitely going to go back there to do the activities and tours we missed out on the first time!

Plenty to do.
Plenty to do. Alexander McCall Smith’s Scotland Street book locations were the highlight of our stay. Highly recommended is Valvona and Crolla deli and cafe. National Gallery excellent. Scottish Parliament worth a visit. Cote good for food and the Cumberland Bar good too. Wetherspoons good for budget eating and drinking. Walking ok for fit people. Maybe too hilly for some. Princes Street and the Royal mile extremely busy.

Edinburgh seems to have a lot of tourist traps, but if you like that kind of thing, then it's the right place to be. Edinburgh Castle and viewing the Crown Jewels is always an interesting visit, although perhaps overcrowded. Harry Potter is milked, but fans get many treats and should opt for the walking Harry Potter Tour. The Royal Mile is fantastic with visitors spoilt for choice in terms of pubs and food. The buskers unfortunately seem to lack talent and should practice more. The adventure on the mile becomes tedious with too many outlets offering similar wares. The Edinburgh Dungeon is worth a visit, although the offering is based very much on the London Dungeon and pulled off with less aplomb. Calton Hill makes for excellent panoramic views and points of interest. We felt that the hop on - hop off busses was not worth the spend, as we found that most areas of interest could be reached on foot. The Camera Obscura attraction on the Royal Mile is a must visit and should be worked into the itinerary. Regrettably, we were not allowed to proceed with a pre-booked tour of The Reak Mary King's Close as the establishment cocked up our time slot. The National Museum of Scotland is worth a visit for history and science buffs, and admission is free. St Giles Cathedral is a must visit and the architecture is stunning. Its 900 odd year history is equally impressive. Franchised coffee shops offer the weary traveller great hot drinks and snacks.

We go to Edinbugh regularly from North Wales to visit the art galleries and walk around the city centre. It is a very beautiful place, very compact and easy to walk around. People are friendly and there are some great eating places. We never go near London any more as we much prefer to visit our Cletic cousins North of the border.

If you chose not to rent a car, Tram at airport to downtown Edinburgh, also Link bus (we took) from airport to downtown Edinburgh.
Everyone in Edinburgh wears running/ low flat shoes - Everyone!. It is very hilly, cobblestone streets, leave your heels at home.
We had a brilliant stay in Edinburgh, the hotel were brilliant. We were surprized by the size of the room, as we expected something smaller. The bathroom was a really good size with all the necessary toiletries.
The staff was brilliant, very helpful, they kept our luggage both on the day or arrival and departure.
The hotel is right in the centre, 1 minute walk to the royal mile. It is a brilliant location if you want to explore Edinburgh city centre.
We really enjoyed our stay and we will be going back again.
The hotel was extremely comfy and relax to stay in Edinburgh, the staffs were so friendly and nice.
Don't be hesitated of the location, there is a bus station near to the hotel and easy to reach to the city centre.
We made a change of date arrival at last minute, but the staff took us request, so lucky and so happy to extend one more day there, thanks for all.
The scotland full breakfast has improved a little bit but tasty as local as can be.
We had a fantastic stay in this apartment with or two children. It was spotlessly clean and well-equipped. The kitchen had everything we needed, including tea and coffee etc. The bathroom is very modern, with a really nice shower. Best of all it is in a great location, just off the Royal Mile in the Old Town and really close to Edinburgh Waverley station and lots of sights such as the National Museum of Scotland and Edinburgh Castle.
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.
Clean hotel, everyone was friendly and welcoming. The bed was big and comfortable and the room was a decent size. A breakfast is available for £13 per person and it is definitely worth it to pay for it. The hotel is located outside of Edinburgh but just a few minutes walk away is a bus stop with buses running every other minute into the city centre.
The location on the Royal Mile was perfect for walking to the Military Tattoo and Fringe Festival shows. Also very convenient to the castle, St. Giles, the National Museum of Scotland and everything else in Old Town. We also liked hotel because it had a small kitchen, and plenty of outlets for drying your hair and putting on makeup near a mirror.
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!
Well-located hotel, between Haymarket and Edinburgh City Centre. Clean, functional room. Quiet accommodation and a nice view of the city, albeit from a modest distance. The exterior looks tired, but it seems part of the hotel at least has been renovated internally and there are nice grounds around the hotel.
Ten Hill Place was a convenient and comfortable location from which to explore Old Town Edinburgh. It is close to Waverly Station, the Royal Mile and our favorite for this trip, the National Museum of Scotland. The hotel staff were pleasant and helpful, and the hotel restaurant provided excellent breakfasts.
Excellent location noy to far from city centre very clean hotel staff were really helpful and friendly and couldn't do enough for you room was fantastic would definitely book this hotel again if I was doing another overnight stay in Edinburgh been in a few hotels in Edinburgh and this was one of the best
Big spacious room, considering a single. Central to Edinburgh City centre. Could walk to Royal Mile, castle etc. The restaurant was across the road , for breakfast. Rabbles is excellent quality food, and friendly polite service. They serve meals all day/evening. I got 20%off meals for being at the hotel.
Location was excellent. In new town but close to old town so you can enjoy all of Edinburgh. Apartments were roomy and we'll equipped. Check in and out was easy. Staff was very responsive. We had an issue with the clothes washer that was quickly addressed. Really appreciated the quick response.
It’s the best location in Edinburgh for easy access to the train station (just across the street), Old Town and New Town. It’s about as central as you can get. The room was clean, modern and had everything we needed. The Passcode made it easy so we didn’t forget a key ever.
I’ve used this hotel so many times of the past 3 years for work, and also with family. It’s not far from Edinburgh City Centre and having the use of the Swimming Pool/Gym is a nice extra.
Lovely boutique hotel. Friendly Concierge. Gorgeous walk into the New and Old Town area. Had some sights to see as well close by to the hotel, like the Botanical Gardens and Dean Village.
The view of Edinburgh’s Old Town and the Castle from our rooms was stunning! The hotel’s location in Princes Street was spot on for its easy access to lots of sites and activities.
Hotel is in a good location with parking facilities and easy access to Edinburgh City Centre. Breakfast good. Rooms bigger than most city centre hotels.
