My partner and I had a very happy and affordable one-night stay a few weeks back . From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome, with Maria in particular going above and beyond (Thanks!). The room itself was modern and clean, with a very comfy bed. We found everything we needed right at our fingertips, and there were no complaints whatsoever. Additionally, we were thoroughly impressed by the bar area, which offered a fantastic atmosphere and a great selection of drinks. It provided the perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploring. One unique aspect we appreciated was the option to rent umbrellas, which came in handy during our visit. Overall, we were thoroughly impressed with our experience here. The combination of friendly staff, modern amenities, and affordability made for a perfect stay. We wouldn't hesitate to book again in the future. Highly recommended!

The hotel was really easy to find, clean and modern. Really simple to check in and out without any assistance. And I liked the hotel offered free cancellation up to a few days before your stay.

We had a room on floor 0 but we struggled to see any signs telling us how to get to floor 0. The first lift we went in didnot even have a button for floor 0, this concussed us more. One particular male bar staff seemed to have an attitude with his staff and wasn’t too friendly when serving customers. As we were already disappointed with the cancellation of Hogmanay, we decided not to let this member of staff ruin the rest of our night, so we went elsewhere! Following the cancellation of the Hogmanay event, this made the experience feel like an overly expensive stay for just 1 night. I feel the hotel staff missed an opportunity to step up and make us feel happier about our stay at this hotel.

Good location, easy check in and great bar. Bed was good how could incline it etc and mood lights around the TV

Rooms quite basic and not good value for money. Would be better if had tea & coffee provided in rooms.

Closeness to main attractions. Very good shower facilities. Comfortable bed.

Guests who had no understanding of being quiet late at night and early morning especially with young children running up and down corridor to friends/ relative’s rooms. Shower leaked when using rain fall head- extra bath mats needed. Couldn’t use £8.50 voucher ( for not using housekeeping if staying two nights) for breakfast. The fact Booking.com did not explain on description of Queen rooms that it would be a basement room where you had to keep blind closed due to proximity of pavement outside or the room further up in the building having no window!!!! Thankfully I managed an upgrade so thank you Yotel receptionist 👍

I liked really this hotel. So easy to entrance good staff and was clean. For edinburgh best price / performance. The Hotel was close the city centre and close the all transportation choise

The hotel wasn't have any window all air system come from AC. That2's why this type off hotels should control AC system filter. Because sometimes for allergy sensitive person can be have problem. And when I came in the hotel AC system temperature set didin't work. And I was cold. Temperature always was stabile and 20 degrees. And second day my allergy attack was start. Thats why the management should be carefully

Hotel amazing very modern rooms, self check in super easy first time done it think it is a great idea, very straight forward. Breakfast was very tasty.. Would highly recommend this hotel.

So it would be nice if hotel would give some warnings to people that are thinking about driving to the hotel. My fault for not doing research. But prior to booking it would be great to know that hotel is located very central, parking is limited if any and if there would some alternative options given, where to park with some prices etc and LEZ zones as well. I think ppl would appreciate this information so they can prepare better.

Great location and access into the city centre. About a 10-15 minute walk to main attractions such as the Edinburgh Christmas Markets and Princes street. The room was large and comfortable for three guests. The bathroom was large and there was lots of space to store luggage.

The entry to the hotel was really dirty especially the stairs leading up to the entry. It wasn’t a great first impression when arriving. Lots of cigarettes and rubbish on the floor. The hallways outside of the rooms could also do with more regular vacuuming. The staff didn’t interact with us at all. I understand check in is done online but it is always nice to be greeted by front staff when checking in for a long stay.

The beds were very comfy!!! I have a picky back and it had no problem on this mattress. The staff at the front desk were very helpful when we had any questions/needed any assistance, and they also provided a list of places to eat nearby in case you needed help figuring out where to get food. The location itself is pretty good for navigating your way to Old Town while not missing out on some nice tidbits of New Town. The coffee and tea downstairs were great. When we used the breakfast service it was pretty good and I enjoyed it. The lounge was nice to sit and relax in as well.

These are just small nitpicks at the end of the day-overall this was a good place to stay and I'd recommend it if the standard chains are out of your price range: The fact that the wifi isn't secured with a password is a little concerning, but Scotland may not have the security threats I'm used to in the US. When room service came in there were a few times when we had dirty sheets but they simply made the bed and didn't change the sheets out. Also, while I completely understand that this is in place to conserve energy, it was a bit irritating that if you didn't move after some time, the lights shut themselves off, and would only turn on again if you moved.

Location was fabulous. Staff all very helpful, especially guy in restaurant in mornings, really pleasant.

The sink outside the toilet is strange. Some guests on our 2nd morning (coach tour) were particularly rude at breakfast, taking tables not allocated to them. This was where the staff member was really helpful to us, allowing us to take our breakfast through to the bar area. He kept apologising to us, although he had no need to. We understood the issues being caused by the tour passengers, he went above and beyond, should be congratulated. Unfortunately didn't get his name 😕

Really quick check in/check out with self service. Bar was lovely, great selection of teas/coffees at bar (No kettle in room, but this wasn’t a huge deal) Lighting was great in the room, room has everything you need. The bed was so comfortable, loved that you could put it up or down like a sofa bed. Handy having a safe and fridge in the room, air con worked great. The black out blinds were possibly my favourite addition for such a great sleep while I was there.

It was a little bit inconvenient having to go down for tea/coffee later in the evening if you were wanting to settle in for the night, but overall not that huge of a deal.
