When I booked, I wasn't aware that it was going to be the best stay for my honeymoon. Especially for such a special occasion, I was anxious about my decision. However, it exceeded my expectations. They upgraded my room as a gift from the hotel. I've spent 25 years traveling and it was the quickest customer service I have ever experienced.
Unfortunately, I forgot to ask the names of the employees to thank them in person. They truly deserve it.
Thank you so much, guys. Love you!

The location is fantastic, the rooms were very clean, comfortable, and quiet. We enjoyed a nice breakfast each morning (staff was pleasant and the food was good). We were very happy with our stay here. We were able to park our car there which was a bonus (only a few spots out back). The hotel is close to so much downtown, right at the foot of the castle and Victoria Street. We loved being right in this wonderful city!

Cameron and staff were lovely and were always ready to accommodate your needs or offer help without being asked. We stayed in the house a couple buildings down from the main entrance room 8 and it was large, comfortable and a beautiful view of the garden. The water pressure was fantastic… when coming from the US, this is a plus. The hotel has its own restaurant and bar. The staff and the restaurant were just as lovely as the room staff and manager. They too went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. I am gluten-free and each day Kyla remembered and had options ready for me. She even surprised me with a gluten-free dessert one day. Pat was also just as lovely and gave us all kinds of tips on what to do while in Edinburgh. I would recommend this hotel highly.

A city of heritage, heart and of course Hogmanay, Scotland’s capital is vibrant and edgy. Whether or not you come for one of its many festivals, Edinburgh is quite simply a feast for the senses.
The wealth of Edinburgh sights ranges from Holyrood Palace to the Botanical Gardens, Princes Street to the Royal Mile. Overseeing them all is majestic Edinburgh Castle. Be there at sunset on a clear day to see the city below bathed in a warm, orange glow. Simply stunning.
Wandering the streets, the smell of fish and chips wafts by, with the unique twist of salt ‘n’ sauce – a must-try variation on this favourite dish. Follow it up with a smooth whisky and you’ll start to feel like a local.
For a taste of Scottish culture, a kilt-wearing busker often plays the bagpipes on Waverley Bridge, while traditional folk music can be heard in some Old Town pubs.

Edinburgh was really good. Would love to go back and just hang around for awhile again. The buildings and city centre are generally pretty cool, with a bunch of historic sites and places scattered around to see. The city can also be used as a base to go elsewhere. I did a bus tour from there which went over to Glencoe and Fort William, among a few others places.
Within the city there's a bunch of sites to see. There's Edinburgh Castle, Scot Monument, a few galleries and museums, lots of old buildings, the Royal Mile, Holyrood Park and a stack more. My time was limited, there's more I haven't done (yet?!).
I walked everywhere. Some places are a little hilly, but walking should be manageable for most people. The city does have trams and buses as well, so public transport options are also available.
I think almost everyone enjoys Scotland to some degree. It is expensive to stay, but there may be some cheaper options for the budget minded if you're willing to make some comfort sacrifices. Otherwise, it will probably be on the more expensive side of things.

Favourite city to visit.
Favourite city to visit. It's small enough to walk around and there's always something fun to do. Great food at every price point and more coffee shops than you can imagine. The people are very friendly and it's always a good time!

Fantastic transport systems allowing us to 'ditch the car'.
Fantastic transport systems allowing us to 'ditch the car'. The Britannia Centre is currently being developed but was very good. Shopping was brilliant, with natural access to the old town and castle. Lovely restaurants, offering every conceivable choice. A lovely vibrant city.

Edinburgh is beyond beautiful.
Edinburgh is beyond beautiful. The whole country is beyond beautiful. Visiting Edinburgh is like taking a step back in time and peaking into the events you read about, saw on TV or learned in history class. It is magical and mystical and I can't get enough of the majesty this country holds in every nook and cranny! Coupled with an exceedingly great transit system, many gorgeous hotels and awesome pubs, visiting here is a slice of heaven!

The Castle is amazing but go early as it gets super busy around noon. Go up Calton Hill. It's totally worth it for the view of the city. The Pipers Rest restaurant in Hunter Square is really good!

Beautiful historical city. Lots to see (city tours)and do.
Beautiful historical city. Lots to see (city tours)and do. Walked the whole area of old town. Found though that the shops pretty much sold all of the same items. Pubs were wonderful, food great and plentiful. Local people were very nice!
Exceptional services by Ibis. The hotel is at best possible location. Ten minutes walk to Edinburgh Waverly and 5 mins to the Scotland museum and royal mile. The room was clean and spacious. There were so many restaurants near the hotel with the hotel itself having a bar and restaurant. Overall a great value for money. Do take ot if you get it at any deal
Edinburgh is very expensive so finding a good place to stay in transit is a challenge. This hotel is on the main airport bus route into the city centre but only 15 minutes from the airport with excellent bus links. There is a busy bar restaurant in the hotel and other restaurants and shops nearby.
It's convenient to get on bus to city centre and airport of Edinburgh, the area has its own community shops and restaurants within walking distance from the hotel. Good facilities is offered in the hotel with its restaurant, snack kiosk and best of all is the gym and swiimming pool.
It was the perfect location, my partner and I had previously booked a hotel around Murrayfield but having stayed in the city centre has made travelling much easier. It also helps that the hotel is a few minutes away from Edinburgh Castle.
Didn’t have breakfast . Visited family for breakfast . Staff lovely and very helpful. location was great bus service outside hotel ideal for going into city centre of Edinburgh. Plenty little shops restaurants .
