The staff were exceptional, super friendly and welcoming, shared some great advices what to see and visit during our stay and overall were very helpful as we arrived way earlier than check-in time. Thankfully we could leave our bags and go explore around. The location was perfect for a first time visit to Edinburgh, plenty of places around to eat or have a drink, though I must admit that the apartment was too cozy to leave for long. Our apartment was just like in the photos, very clean and stylish. The beds were super comfortable too.

Unfortunately we couldn’t order any breakfast items from the kitchen as such service was unavailable during our stay, however, the breakfast buffet was lovely.

Staff were lovely, efficient and friendly and gave the aprthotel a relaxed vibe. Decor and facilities excellent and room warm and spacious. Superb location with restaurants nearby and within easy walking distance of all the attractions.

The lady that checked us in (Ava?) was extremely friendly and informative. Great way to start the stay. Room was clean and modern and included a Nespresso maker as well as a few complimentary sweets. Wifi worked well. The location was absolutely perfect. It has the feeling of being on a quiet street yet just 200 meters up the road you were in the heart of Old Town. You can see the castle from the hotel entrance and there is discounted parking a 2 minute walk from the hotel. It's easy for someone to state "I would stay here again", but in our case we actually did as three nights later we came back for the Edinburgh Tattoo.

The location is perfect. Comfortable rooms, well equipped with everything you needed to semi make your own meals. All was great & staff were the nicest & most helpful. Staff at Wilde know how to treat their guest right. Amy with her big bright smile, daily greetings & eagarness to help and make guest feel at home. Stewart took the cake by booking us an Uber & paying for it so we would not miss our train, because it was snowing outside & the cab had not arrived. we offered to pay him back but he said just go," I do not want you to miss your train." We did not miss it, thanks to Stewart. I noticed Stewart making some tea for an old grandma, earlier at breakfast, at the same time, taking care of her grandson, also giving him a small jug of milk to carry back to his grandma so she could have it with her tea. Very sweet, all the while, talking to the young boy & asking him questions. This is type of hospitality is hard to find, Wilde either has chosen well or taught their staff extremely well. However it never felt, like it was put on, they genuinely cared. These two did not seem to be doing this as a job, they were enjoying caring for their guest, they were genuine & took time to get to know the guest they were serving at the hotel. Cheers to these two, so appreciated. We will want to come & stay at Wilde again & again. We did not get photos with these two delightful people so... Next time!!!

single beds were a tad bit small but truthfully, it was not in the least a bother, we slept well regardless so that was possibly the only thing to point a finger at but, not in the least worth the mention.

The staff were absolutely lovely, incredibly welcoming and helpful. The rooms were nice, with very comfy beds and it felt clean when we came in and we could check in early by a couple of hours. There were cookies and flavoured water free and readily available when we were leaving or coming into the hotel which was always nice to have. The local area was great for drinks, food spots and overall atmosphere.

The little area downstairs where you can buy snacks and drinks was quite expensive, we just walked to a supermarket to get any snacks we wanted, a sainsburys local was about 5 minutes away. With the rooms, there were blackout blinds which were great, however a good amount of light still got into the room from underneath the doors due to the hallway lights always being on. With our room having a castle view, the street below could be quite noisy around the later hours but this didn't bother us too much.

Be prepared for a solid workout to get to the hotel - it's location is definitely a plus but you'll need extra leg power. In the room there is a dryer (with strong air flow), iron with ironing board, fridge, dishwasher, toaster, coffee maker, kettle and induction hob. Everything is of good quality and works perfectly. You can easily prepare a hot meal or a snack for the road. Dishwashing detergents and sponges, bottled water, tea and coffee are also in stock. Take a moment to study the electrical panels on the wall - there are a lot of options there for lighting, automatic curtains and air conditioning. Don't forget to insert the card though. ; ) The cosmetics available in the room (shampoo, conditioner, cleansing gel and soap) are full-sized, so you don't have to bother bringing your own. They smell nice and do not irritate the skin or hair. The breakfast is rather modest, but there is everything to be satisfied. Haggis was a tasty surprise, don't be afraid to try. Overall, the hotel was very clean and the staff were polite and attentive. I really enjoyed my stay. : )))

One night the air conditioning went rogue and started blasting the freezing air into the room - it was solved quickly via whatsapp chat with the staff.

Three nights in April. This hotel is a proper gem. The location just off Grassmarket is perfect - close to everything but not too close to anything. In the shadow of the castle, it was quiet and peaceful. We walked maybe 70K steps in our three days in Edinburgh because everything was within 15-20 min walk. We were there to tour the University of Edinburgh and St. Andrews, and this location was convenient both for the U and to catch trains to Leuchars / St Andrews. We bought some minor groceries at Sainsbury's nearby which we used in the room, but mostly dined out. The kitchenette is well provisioned for basic cooking and eating, no extras but we found we had what we needed. The reception area / bar / restaurant is straightforward and functional, and the staff are exceedingly courteous, friendly, and professional. The room (two twin beds) wouldn't be called spacious, but it was fine, and the shower and bathroom were excellent. Intuitive lighting and climate system, good TV, blackout shades. This is not a traditional four-star, it is not for people who need a lot of handholding, but it is perfectly situated and set up for seasoned travelers. Overall excellent hotel, would definitely visit again.

I was not expecting to like this hotel as much as I did. It exceeded expectations. I suppose the one drawback would be for those who don't want to deal with hills and steps, being at the bottom of Grassmarket, you'll be walking uphill to get most places. But that seems to be the case almost everywhere in Edinburgh.

The location is perfect for exploring the old town, great view of the castle and within easy reach of all the main tourist trails, close to bus and rail services too. The hotel is cashless, policies are clear and simple. Check in and out seamless and we were able to extend check out for a very reasonable fee. The staff are welcoming, helpful and always on hand. Room service can be as your choice, not intrusive at all. In fact a model others could copy. The room we had was warm, well furnished and equipped, modern smart/eco switches and a very comfortable bed. Blackout shutters to help light sleepers are amazing. Bathroom is small but functional and the shower hot and with good pressure (a huge bonus for me.)

Minor niggles, and wouldn’t stop me staying here again. Apartment could benefit from some extra soft lighting, the main led lighting in the living room is either all on or all on/off. The TV channels signal frequently break up and become unwatchable and the sofa in the living room is a sofa bed… It self destructs, and tries to insert hard framework up ones bum.

Such a beautiful, clean room!! And right in the heart of the city Centre, at the base of Edinburgh Castle. Just beautiful. It was clean and we were surprised by how quiet it was, given we saw plenty of big parties with young kids checking in around the same time as we did. Maybe we just lucked out and didn’t get put next to them haha. The shower was luxurious - water pressure and temperature was superb. Very high-tech room that made our stay so wonderful.

I’m not sure if all rooms are like this but it seems like the rooms are catered to disabled people. So the sink in the bathroom is very very low and might be a pain for tall people or those with back problems. There’s also no storage space at all in the bathrooms to put your toiletries. Also would be nice to have more sugar and milk accessible in the rooms rather than just a tiny bit at a time. But these were all minor things and overall 10/10 would recommend staying here!!

Great location, very well equipped apartment, high-end appliances by Smeg, a nespresso and it even had a dishwasher. Loads of fluffy towels and lovely toiletries. Small touches like having umbrellas available for guests and staff had no problem calling taxis at any time. The staff were exceptionally nice and obliging.

Shower door didn't close fully, and the beds were a little high for the vertically challenged! Also i hate flat sheets personally. Lights in apartment either all on or off, not possible to turn them on and off individually, set price for breakfast so you can't pay for individual items
