★★★ 8.7 (200 reviews)

"We have stayed here several times before and have always been satisfied with this hotel. We stayed for two nights this time;. Good breakfast, plenty of choice. We had left 2 bath towels to be changed and used cups from our morning tea but when we returned for the second evening we only had one bath towel replaced along with a fresh hand towel and bath mat (not needed). Also the cups had not been changed or replacement tea bags provided. Mentioned it to reception when we checked out and they said we of contacted them but we didn’t get back until late having been to a family funeral and only wanted to sleep. Having said all this we will still use this hotel again."

New Town Hotel

New Town Hotel

📍 8 York Place, Edinburgh
★★★★ 9.0 (99 reviews)

"A terrible stay. The room had just been renovated and the furniture had a strong paint smell. There was still feces residue from a previous guest in the toilet. The WiFi was unusable all night. The room was poorly soundproofed, and there was almost no hot water in the shower. They refused to negotiate an early check-out, citing that the hotel staff were not working. The reception staff were polite but helpless regarding the hotel's facilities."

Destiny Student - Holyrood (Brae House) ★★★★
"We needed somewhere central to explore the fringe festival that didn't break the bank, this ticked all the boxes! The 24hr reception was a godsend, so we got there early doors & put our bags in reception for a fiver & didn't check in until midnight so that we didn't miss any planned shows having to come back & check in at 3pm. Student dig rooms so obviously not too spacious, but suited us fine, only complaint would be the heat, extremely warm in the room, but leaving the window open means you here the trains all night so not ideal.Fans were available to hire at reception though in case our become too much, which or didn't for us thankfully."

New Town Hotel ★★★★
"The room was excellent, very new. The location was superb, within walking distance of all Edinburgh attractions. It was also very close to the train station. While within walking distance of the attractions, it wasn't too crowded or noisy; there was a supermarket and shopping mall within 200 meters. A very good experience."
