Top Polton Hotel Reviews

Virgin Hotels Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"We absolutely loved our stay at this hotel! Everything was exceptionally clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The staff was wonderful—always friendly, welcoming, and eager to help with anything we needed. The location was fantastic, with so many attractions, shops, and restaurants nearby, making it easy to explore and enjoy our trip. The hotel was worth every penny and truly made our visit even more memorable. Our only regret is that we didn’t have enough time to experience everything the area has to offer! We enjoyed ourselves so much that we’re already planning a return trip in the next few years. We highly recommend this hotel and would gladly stay here again!"

Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, really stylish especially for the price. The wee double room was basic in amenities but thoughtfully decorated and had what you need, spotless too! It was definitely wee but perfect for one person and more than suitable for two if you’re happy to be cosy! They accommodated bag storage and late check out without a fuss and were friendly and helpful."

CODE - The Court, Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"10/10. I stayed from Oct 7-13 in a superior suite because I didn’t want to share my space. It was absolutely amazing. The hostel as a whole was clean, cute, and safe. As a female solo traveler, safety was my main priority and I felt secure throughout my whole stay. The room was cute with an amazing view of St Giles Cathedral. I didn’t venture to the common shared spaces because my itinerary was full but the areas I did visit like the cafe and bar, I enjoyed. The location was perfect. On the Royal Mile. Close to many shops and restaurants. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend his hostel."
