"The property worked for our family of 5 stay; however, property does not have AC which would be important in the summer. Additionally, sleeping 5 meant sharing spaces as there is only a large great room / kitchen and the master bedroom with master bath. If you need a laundry you’ll have to reserve somewhere else. The location was the best attribute of this property. It is close to everything."

Top Gambado Hotel Reviews

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was so wonderful!"

PREMIER SUITES Edinburgh Fountain Court

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed at Premier Suites Edinburgh Fountain Court with my wife for a one-week stay in early October 2026. The hotel is located within walking distance of some of the most popular sites in Edinburgh. However, it's also tucked away so you can enjoy some quiet and privacy during your stay in the city. The apartments have a wealth of amenities including a dishwasher, washer/dryer, fridge, stove, oven, and microwave, and the hotel provides instructions on how to operate each of them. This was super helpful during our stay! The hotel also provides dish soap and laundry detergent. Staff were very friendly and helpful. They answered all my questions, and provided me with things like coffee pods and toilet paper when I was running out. Overall an excellent experience. If I return to Edinburgh, I will likely be staying here again!"

Motel One Edinburgh-Royal

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing location to walk to all that Edinburgh has to offer … the staff was friendly & helpful."

YOTEL Edinburgh, Select by Hilton

8/10 Good

"Excellent minimalist twin room. Breakfast was average."

Market Street Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was close proximity to your needs and wants. If you are there for a day and just needed some rest every thing was right there."

Virgin Hotels Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"First Class experience from start to finish! The Virgin company, hands down, knows what they are doing when it comes to travel and hospitality, coming from someone who was once an executive of a 5 star luxury brand. Virgin Edinburgh was such a vibe. The whole aesthetic is sexy, sultry and ever so inviting. You are immersed in intrigue at every turn with the eccentric decor and vibrancy of color throughout the hotel. The staff, First Class from the moment we were greeted at the door, to check-in, the bar and each restaurant, to the housekeeping staff, excellence every step of the way. This brand does not miss a beat. We were celebrating two momentous occasions; 30 years married and my 50th Birthday and the thoughtful gestures extended were immensely appreciated by both myself and my husband. The hotel manager, unfortunately I didn’t get his name, even went as far as looking through several cases of whiskey just to find the certain numbered bottle my husband was looking to purchase. That in itself, to the extra mile, was above and beyond. Throughout our stay, there were so many of these little gestures that made my heart pitter patter and solidified my loyalty not only to this hotel in future travels but to the brand itself, Virgin. This company knows what personality makes the brand successful. Perfect location! Near Royal Mile & Victoria St. It’s on the higher price point but you get what you pay for. Book it! You won’t regret it!"

The Hoxton, Edinburgh

8/10 Good

"Hotel was easy to find, staff were all exceptional and rooms were clean. Things to be aware of…they have rooms in the main building and rooms in the building across the street. Buildings are secure and safe, however you cannot take drinks across the street so if you want a glass of wine in bed it’s not possible. Also parking is about a10-15min walk from the hotel."

The Caledonian Edinburgh, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely stay for our 30th Anniversary staff polite and friendly"
