Top National Museum of Scotland Hotel Reviews

Apex Waterloo Place Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location and extremely comfortable hotel. The entire staff was amazingly helpful and accommodating. The only issue was that one of the two elevators was out of service the entire stay. I would definitely go back."

Hilton Edinburgh Carlton

8/10 Good

"The only downside was there was not a coffee station for guests at the hotel. You have to wait until the doors open for breakfast. There is a coffee shop nearby, but it would be more convenient for guests if coffee was provided 24/7. The new renovated rooms are beautiful and extremely comfortable .. however, the walls are paper thin."

YOTEL Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"The Hotel was clean, and seemed like it was a brand new establishment. Our room was very quiet and the room temperature control kept our room extremely comfortable. I loved the beautiful location and the on site restaurant. The hotel provided 24/7 coffee via very nice coffee brewers, which offered also brewed latte’s, etc. All of this was complimentary. I can highly recommend Yotel."

Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Really friendly and helpful staff. The hotel is in a prime location, within walking distance of most of the city centre attractions. Breakfast was really nice, we had a freshly cooked option as well as the usual buffet, all good quality. The hotel and room were clean and well appointed. The only negatives I can give would be that the room was perhaps a little small and a few fittings in the bathroom were getting a bit tired. Overall a great place to stay in Edinburgh City Centre, I wouldn’t hesitate to use it again."
