Top The Braid Hills Hotel Reviews

The Hoxton, Edinburgh

8/10 Good

"Really great location and large bathroom. The boot-boof music in the bar lounge area every night was woeful and not really conducive to a relaxing environment."

Virgin Hotels Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and very clean! The staff was very friendly. Good restaurants on site. Within walking distance of everything!"

YOTEL Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Very Cute and well maintained hotel"

Point A Edinburgh Haymarket

8/10 Good

"La chambre est très petite. Très propre et fonctionnelle."

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Castle view on the 5th floor. Right in the center of everything. We went for the Tatto & had a repeat each night going to sleep hearing bagpipes. Breakfast was great value for the price. Alot of food and convenient to have at hotel. Staff very friendly & helpful"

PREMIER SUITES Edinburgh Fountain Court

10/10 Excellent

"Great facilities for one last day in Edinburgh! They are strict about late check out though, so best check if you need anything later than 11am even if a short while."

Edinburgh Travel Guest House

8/10 Good

"It would have been nice if the were face cloths included with the towels. Location was good, and close to a bus stop."

Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I loved this hotel because we were treated so kindly throughout our entire stay. The staff answered all the questions we had, and no request was too big. We were even allowed to check into our room in the morning when we arrived completely exhausted from a red eye flight. This was hugely appreciated. The hotel is in an old building. Edinburgh is OLD! They have kept it up though and we had a clean modern bathroom with both walk in shower and soaker tub. Nice bath products. We had a mini fridge in our room, and the bath towels and bed linens were lovely. Side tables for the bed and reading lights. The only tiny thing that could be done is to replace the carpet. Ours had stains on it. It wasn’t a huge room but big enough for us and our luggage. We had a quiet room not facing the view of the castle, which we preferred as we kept our windows open. The breakfast was incredible. We could choose from a hot and cold buffet, and we could order a main breakfast item from the menu. There was a coffee machine so we could have cappuccino (and I could get decaf) every morning. Such a treat for us as we never go out for coffee. I would highly recommend staying here. It is also perfectly located to walk the entirety of Old Town and New Town and everything in between. Stay here and you don't need transport (unless you don't like to walk). PS their staff could give a course in hotel hospitality!!!"

The Lane Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice stay! Would definitely go back. Not very close to a scotrail or tram. Will have to walk 2 miles or catch Uber to get to one. Morningside is a really nice area with coffee shops and stores for everyday shopping. The Canny Man was awesome too."
