“Brilliant!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 February 2012

Fri 27th Jan 2012-29th Jan 2012 I booked this weekend away as a xmas present for me my mum and sister, We ended up in the Holyrood by accident. We were meant to be staying at the Jurys Inn. It was the best mistake we ever made! The Holyrood is perfect the rooms are spacious and very clean, They are warm and cosy with all the facilities you have at home. It is very central and a two min walk to the tesco express were you can buy all your food and drinks. You have all the benifits of a apartment but yet the security of having a 24hr reception desk. We enjoyed our stay so much we are going back to Holyrood in October.
Worth every penny. x

Room Tip: Room 300 is were we were staying it was lovely

“Great spot, honest price, good for families!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012

- Just 30 seconds from the Royal Mile
- very polite staff
- it has an escalator
- the apartment is big and well furbished, with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, living room and kitchen!
- it has washing and drying machine
- the neighborhood is pretty damn calm. so your sleep is guaranteed!

In fact, I would be pretty happy if every city in the world had a hotel like this one!!! 2 thumbs up!

“Excellent accomodation”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 January 2012

We booked a two bed apartment at the very last minute, we had an accommodation crisis with an earlier choice! The standard of the apartment is very good, it is fresh, clean, spacious and most importantly has room for the three of us (we have a three year old!). There is plenty of room for him to run around and play safely.

The extra touches like the breakfast hamper are really appreciated. There are plenty of places to pop out for supplies and lots of good restaurants in the area.

Had a lovely stay, we will be going back.

“Old Town Location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 January 2012

We stayed for three nights in January and were very impressed by the overall standard of the accommodation.
I don't know what some other reviewers are complaining about regarding the staff.
The reception team were charm personified and the chambermaids went above and beyond the call of duty.
Situated about 50 yards from The Canongate Kirk it's in the heart of the Old Town.
Having its own secure car park in this part of Edinburgh is as rare as rocking horse [--]!
If you are planning to stay in the near future I would request an upper floor as there is a fair amount of building work next door which starts at 8.am, that is hardly the fault of the hotel is it?
I have no hesitation in recommending this property and will undoubtedly use it again myself.
Thanks to all concerned.

Wonderful trip. Great place to stay closer to home than hotel! We traveled from Boston on evening flight and were not able to get into room until 2 pm. So we arrived at hotel around 8 am UK time. No sleep and no where to go! Will take early am flight next time! Small grocery store around corner.

Room Tip: American dollar is not worth much there! Avoid tourist traps ! Food terrible (could barely eat )at...
