This is a clean and basic hotel, with friendly and helpful reception staff in a great location. Our room was spacious and comfortable, basic facilities but all you need to sleep in. The adjoining pub serves a great Scottish breakfast. Grassmarket is a lively and fun part of Edinburgh to stay in. More

we booked this hotel for a new year visit to scotland. The hotel is very shabby and in need of urgent redecoration - we stayed 3 nights, the first night was £55 between two, the subsequent two nights were £65 each - whilst i appreicate it was new year so premiums were added i think we were massively overcharged for...

Although the staff were very helpful and accommodating, we didn't feel that the hotel was very good value for money. I am not very familiar with hotel prices in Edinburgh, but this hotel did not compare well to similar priced hotels in Central London. Our room was very shabby, with a bathroom door that would not close properly, broken locks... More

Me and my partner stopped here last year and I was wary about the hotel due to the reviews but wanted a cheap place to sleep so decided to book anyways. Its quite a hike from the train station just loads of steps but thats what the whole of Edinbrugh like!! Hotel was easy to find and has a lovely... More

Minus points:- Overall the condition of this hotel is poor. We stayed for two nights (Friday and Saturday) in October. We had no hot water on the Friday we did bring this to the attention of the receptionist about 4pm, who told us the boiler had stopped working and would be fine within 15mins. No idea when it did eventually... More

I stayed in the Grassmarket Hotel for 1night in September and to be honest,I really wish I hadn't! The hotel is in very poor condition, with wallpaper hanging off the walls, carpets thread bare and facilities on a less than basic scale. The rooms in particular were very shabby. The TV only had 2 channels (channel 5*, and 5USA), the... More
