Top Tollcross Hotel Reviews

Moxy Edinburgh Airport

8/10 Good

"Convenient for Edinburgh Airport, 5 minute walk to the terminal building. Friendly staff at check in. Room modern and clean, good sized shower. Only downside was the heating system. Even turned down to lowest setting room was very warm overnight. The fan could not be turned off from the room so ran noisily all night. May suit very heavy sleepers."

CODE - The Court, Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"This is my second stay at the a Code Pod and I will keep coming back. I love this place! The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. You can't beat the location, right on the Royal Mile. It's not the average hostel. Even in the dorm style rooms, you have a level of privacy in your personal pod. My most recent stay was in one of the double rooms. So very spacious! I can't say enough about the staff. So friendly. So helpful. Just all around nice people. "

Aparthotel Adagio Edinburgh Royal Mile

10/10 Excellent

"We arrived late after travelling after work. The reception team were welcoming and it was an east checkin. There was even frozen meals available at the small shop they had, which solved our issue as we'd missed supper. The room was actually really quiet, which was brilliant as we were up early."
