Hotels in Edinburgh, United Kingdom – Book at Best Prices 2026

"Generally, it was a good stay. Handy location, reception staff were nice, bed was comfy, room was warm. The room was quite small - perfectly fine for a solo stay, but maybe would be a bit tight for a couple. I would recommend this place for solo travellers wanting a restful night and to be well-connected transport-wise."

"We were 4 friends travelling to Edinburgh to explore Scotland. The hostel is really close to the train station and located in a prime location. The receptionists were all really helpful and friendly. Would recommend this to any friend group or solo travellers"

"Location is fair, close to airport and not too far from city. Easy access to tram across the road. Approx 5min walk. Staff are friendly. First room of check in there was bloodstains on the double bed and second room had stains on the top bunk bed. Not a great start after a long night of travelling and just wanting to rest. Abrupt awakening about 12ish due to a fire alarm and panick just to find out after it was a drill. (There was a sign at the reception desk but at 7am after long night of travel your not going to look below the desk to read). Top bunk isn't comfortable. Be mindful what you leave out in the room before cleaners come in. Our photo we got taken in edinburgh old style photo was thrown away and some medication I had wrapped up was thrown out. Hotel is okay for a short stay."

"I didn't pay attention to the working hours of the front desk until 22:00. The hotel contacted us through Trip.com and waited for 15 minutes. At that time, China time was four in the morning. Thank you Trip.com for your dedication. The hotel is some distance from the train station and attractions to call a car once 6-7 pounds."

"Had a pleasant stay, extremely kind and helpful staff who responded to many requests. Generally bare room but clean and alright. Location is a little further from the main old town attractions but nice new mall right in front. Convenient food options all around."

"Excellent location, right next to the tram stop, and only a 20-minute walk to the city center. Round-trip fare is £4.20. Trams run frequently, morning and evening. It's best to avoid the 3 PM check-in peak, as there can be long queues. The rooms are spacious and clean, with air conditioning. There's also a shopping area right outside the hotel, making shopping convenient for returning to the airport."

"This is definitely a hotel you can trust in the UK. It's clean, tidy, hygienic, and most importantly, quiet! Plus, there's free parking."

"I absolutely loved this place. This was my second visit to Edinburgh, and after staying at Kickassgrassmarket on my first visit, I decided to stay here again. The service was great, the cleanliness was great, and the location was fantastic. I really enjoyed my stay here. I'm sure I'll be back on my next visit."

"We stayed here in winter. Everything was excellent. It's centrally located but a little bit away from grocery stores. The room was clean, newly renovated, and had everything we needed, including dishwasher and washing machine tablets, kitchen essentials, dishes, and more. There was even a white noise machine and other thoughtful touches that truly made it feel almost like home. They brought us an extra heater, and it became very warm. The staff was very friendly and helpful; you could ask any questions in the chat for quick communication with reception. As for tiny downsides, there was no view and very little natural light. It was impossible to be in the room during the day without turning on a light, as the windows faced a small inner courtyard, like a 'well.' However, in winter, this actually protected us from the wind, so it was fine. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay!"

"I had a really pleasant stay at the Britannia Hotel in Edinburgh with my fiancée. The location was one of the biggest highlights — it’s very accessible to major attractions, especially Dean Village, which made exploring the city incredibly convenient. The breakfast was great with a good variety of options, and it was a perfect start to our mornings. The food overall was satisfying and well-prepared. The staff were very helpful, friendly, and always ready to assist with anything we needed, which made our stay even more comfortable. The rooms were clean, well-maintained, and had all the basic amenities required for a relaxing stay. Overall, it was a comfortable and enjoyable experience. A great choice for anyone looking for a convenient location, good food, and welcoming service in Edinburgh."
