BrewDog DogHouse Edinburgh, hotel in Edinburgh

BrewDog DogHouse Edinburgh features free bikes, terrace, a restaurant and bar in Edinburgh.

Quirky, but hospitable. The staff was very friendly even being very laid back. The attitude dragged us down to a relaxed being. Hey. I’m on vacation, why get all wound up? I could have just gone to a big box chain if I wanted that. Food was really good as was the beer. Location was killer. I’m not a dog fan, but even with the dogs around, I was chill. And. Beer tokens if you reuse your bathroom towels. I was never so motivated to hang ‘em up for a second use.

The Bonham, hotel in Edinburgh

Located in Edinburgh's West End, The Bonham Hotel is a Victorian town house. Majority of the bedrooms have a city view.

The hotel is incredibly beautiful. They didn’t spare any expense and the attention to detail does not go unnoticed. There are wonderful places to lounge and a great restaurant. The Nespresso machine and fresh milk in the room is an added bonus. There is a lovely park across the street. I strained my back and they put an extra topper on our bed. I would highly recommend the Bonham if you want to treat yourself to a bit of luxury.

    We did a Hop-on, Hop-off bus in Edinburgh and stopped at the Grassmarket - very interesting and a must see is the Greyfriars Kirk and Greyfriars Bobby's grave. Toured the Holyrood Castle - very interesting and a lovely gift shop.

    Lots of fun things to see and do and just a nice place to hang out. Loads of lunch spots; we would recommend the Whiskey and Haggis arcade and suggest try the Robert Burns Famous Haggis with whiskey sauce; one portion is enough for 2 people.

    The real St Mary's Close.

    The real St Mary's Close. Amazing "Museum" which is actually a series of uncovered streets that were originally built beneath the current road, below the town. When the plague hit, the poor were entombed there. The history of it was mind-boggling. A must to see. The Mile itself just great to walk, stop, sip a drink or two. The Dome restaurant and Bars wonderous at Xmas. Fantastic array of external and internal Christmas lights, trees.

    Loved walking up and down the Royal Mile, it was the Fringe Festival while were there, it was a hive of activity and street performers were dotted along the mile. There are also some interesting shops selling souvenirs, if that's your thing

    DON'T go in peak season! The historical interest is completely obfuscated by the crowds and tacky souvenir shops. Taking a walking tour with Mercat tours at least gives one interesting historical information

    Hopefully you'll get a chance to walk the entire length. Always a bustling area with lots of interesting things to do and see. Too much to list here. Check online. the Whisky adventure is a must for those who like a tipple, Camera Obscura at the castle end. Holyrood Palace and park at the other. Book the top end restaurants well in advance of your visit.

    Good location in New Town. Walkable from Waverly Train Station. Easy walk to the shops on George Street and to Edinburgh Castle and the Royal Mile. Nice to spread out a bit in the space of an apartment. Beautiful high ceilings. Kitchen was pretty well outfitted for those wanting to cook or eat in.

    Spotless, quiet and accommodating apartment. Location in the heart of the Royal Mile, within easy walking distance of Edinburgh Castle and other sites. Great views from the small balcony outside the main bedroom. Entrance through a small alley into a historic courtyard. Many restaurants in a short radius. Beds were comfortable and our hostess, Sangita, provided coffee, tea and biscuits for us to enjoy.

    It’s cozy and clean, a comfortable stay. The beds were soft and warm, which was very much welcome in 16C weather. Felt like a cozy apartment. Location is fantastic, there’s a Sainsbury Local two blocks down, and a view of Edinburgh Castle across the street. Half a mile to the Royal Mile and Victorias Street. Lothian bus stop a few blocks away as well.

    Charming, historic boutique hotel, with a wonderful restaurant. Rooms are comfortable and cozy. Edinburgh Castle, the Royal Mile, Hollyrood Palace, Old Town, and Arthur's Head are all within a 30-minute walk. If you are here on weekends, street parking is free, but otherwise is expensive throughout Edinburgh. Staff is extremely helpful, and the hotel offers a welcome laundry service at a modest price. A very romantic place very much in keeping with Edinburgh's charm. Highly recommend.

    Market Street hotel is located just outside the Edinburgh train station and just down hill from the royal mile (you do have to climb up steps to get to the royal mile). The street level entrance directs you to the 7th floor lobby. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was lovely, big enough to walk around and have a little bistro table and chairs. The free mini bar had a small but varied selection. The room was quiet and had great blackout curtains (a door, actually). I really only slept there but I really enjoyed my brief visit!

    Very comfortable, lots of living space for an apartment and it fit all 5 of us perfectly. Quiet neighborhood and not far from the Royal Mile - was about a 6 minute Uber ride. If it had been better weather the yard would be great to use. It was also nice to have the makings for breakfast and snacks provided. Overall a very nice place to reside while visiting Edinburgh.

    This is a clean, well kept hotel in a great area! It’s close to the royal mile (10 min walk), Waverley train station (15 min walk), and St. Andrew’s tram stop (20 min walk) while still being located in a quieter area. Beautiful room, friendly staff, and a great breakfast. It was my first time in Edinburgh for the Taylor Swift concert and the hotel was so welcoming. Thank you especially to Carla for manning the eras glitter station! What a fun idea!

    The location was perfect - right by Edinburgh Waverly and 2 minutes from the Royal Mile. The facilities were perfect - classic hotel, comfortable beds, spacious rooms with high ceilings and elegantly decorated. Despite it's central location, there was no noise from the surrounding streets, making our stay very peaceful. The dinner we had in the Grand Cafe was great. We would definitely stay at the Scotsman on our next visit to Edinburgh and would recommend it to friends.
