"Edinburgh is very chaotic/touristy on the Royal Mile and this was right in the chaos, however, it felt very safe & the room itself was very spacious, clean & worth the price for it all. I had to contact them once for directions and they answered right away and were super helpful. It sucks there are stairs you have to carry your luggage up and the luggage room was on the first floor, very small/crowded & right next to our apartment room door, but it didn’t seem to get too loud or an issue when...

Top Gillis Centre Hotel Reviews

ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge - Royal Mile

8/10 Good

"Loved it. Great location from the Royal Mile and easy walking distance to Waverley and all the main sites you want to see"

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This property was wonderful... and the staff, even better! Great location! Would certainly stay here again in the future. My only complaint would be that the room felt a bit warm. I searched the room for a thermostat or way to adjust the temperature, but found nothing. Maybe I just didn't know where to look... haha! But my husband and I were able to crack the window to let in some cooler air. Also, there was a fan provided in the room."

Market Street Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The location was pretty good. The rooms were clean and the staff were friendly."

Sheraton Grand Hotel & Spa, Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely staying again the staff, food and amenities were all excellent. Rooms modern and bright with ambient lighting for evening relaxation. Free pool use and reasonable cost for full spa use. This is now our choice of hotel when we come to Edinburgh."

Garner Edinburgh Haymarket by IHG

8/10 Good

"Great spot for easy access to airport tram. Worth having a look at this place for a stay."

YOTEL Edinburgh, Select by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Well appointed room. Excellent amenities and common areas. Modern and clean. Highly recommend."

PREMIER SUITES Edinburgh Fountain Court

8/10 Good

"This place was perfect for our family since we needed two rooms, and it was very clean. The restaurants nearby were amazing. A few things could have been better. The hair dryer didn’t work in the bathroom outlets, so I had to dry my hair in the bedroom, where the mirror was in an awkward spot. The listing also said UK plugs would be available, but there weren’t any, so we had to go out and buy three for £15 each. Our building was four blocks from reception, which was difficult to manage with all our luggage. Other than that, we had a great stay!"

Point A Edinburgh Haymarket

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, very helpful staff. Decent breakfast"

Britannia Hotel Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Great staff and shoutout to"
