"The toilet was so high up i couldn't do a sh*t. I'm six foot tall, but when I was sat on the toilet my feet were not touching the ground. Overall, the place was pretty bleak, e.g. no mirror in the bedroom to check my outfit, only one pillow so I got neck ache in bed, no towel rail or hooks anywhere in the bathroom so couldn't hang up a towel, no hook in the bedroom to hang up a coat, no toilet roll holder. These things are not expensive to install. The bathroom floor was a bit dirty when...

Top Craigmillar Castle Hotel Reviews

Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh

6/10 Okay

"Rooms are small with tiny bathrooms. Staff are very helpful but construction occurring on the street in front of the hotel makes more difficult walking at Access."

Hilton Edinburgh Carlton

6/10 Okay

"This is a large hotel with only two unlinked elevators serving a single elevator bay, with up and down stairs on the same level, resulting in extremely long wait times. When departing, we called for luggage assistance, but after waiting 15 minutes with nobody arriving, we carried our luggage down the stairs ourselves to reach the elevators. Even then, we waited another 10 minutes before we could get into an elevator, as they consistently arrived full. The suite was very nice and clean; however, none of the USB outlets worked. Additionally, the bathroom exhaust fan and towel warmer were not functioning. We also encountered an issue with being incorrectly charged for breakfast. The hotel has an unusual setup where the Executive Lounge, which serves as the breakfast venue in the morning, does not officially open until noon. Guests with Executive Lounge access are entitled to breakfast there, but we encountered a staff member who appeared unfamiliar with the policy. Despite our request, they declined to verify it with management and insisted on charging us. The charge was later removed after we spoke with a manager, who was very apologetic and resolved the issue promptly. While the accommodations themselves were pleasant, the elevator delays, maintenance issues, and breakfast billing confusion significantly detracted from the overall experience"

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

8/10 Good

"It is the perfect location to be in the city. I understand the age of the building, but there is zero AC in the rooms and the winds only open a couple inches. It’s VERY warm in the room. Also, the first room they gave us with our castle view was horrible with a giant wall obstructing the view. We requested another room and by the third try we had a decent view. Beware when paying extra for a castle view."

Summer Stays at The University of Edinburgh - Campus Accommodation

4/10 Poor

"I wasn't expecting much from a dorm room, but what a disappointment. The room smelled like dirty socks, the shower barely got hot, the tv didn't work, and the room was cold. It was also incredibly noisy. There were some large groups of students (presumably foreigners on tour) and lots of other travellers. Doors were banging and people were talking loudly in the halls until 1 am. A word to the wise (especially if you're a mature adult): pay the extra and stay in a proper hotel."
