Overall Ratings & Reviews No 6 West Coates

Automated check in and lovely facility. Little bit older but very comfortable. Nice shared space with a fridge and microwave available. Super close to the bus stops. Highly recommended!

No 6 West Coates is not really what i would consider a hotel, it's more like an airbnb. We recived our room key via emailed instructions, and we never saw any staff the entire time we were there. This hotel was was bearable for the two nights we spent there, but if we had been staying in Edinburgh longer, I would have found other accommodations. The building is old and in need of renovations for the prices they charge. The room was ok, but not the cleanest. The bed was also not comfortable. I like a firm mattress, but even I found it too hard. There's no air con, which we expected, but the windows only opened about six inches and we had to find something to put in them to keep them propped up so air could get in. There was no fan in the room, so I wouldn't recommend staying here in warm weather. The bathroom was fine, but again, had to prop open the window to let steam out. The room did not have any lamps or fixtures with USB ports, so make sure you have a plug adapter if you're traveling from outside the UK. We had to go to the Tesco Express down the street, and luckily they had one. No mini-fridge in the room, but there was a refrigerator in the common room on the ground floor. The location is pretty good. The tram and train station is about a 10 minute walk, and the main part of town is about 20 minutes. Might not be convenient for someone with mobility issues. Overall, for 300£ for 2 nights, I would not stay here again. There are nicer options for the price.

Very helpful staff. Plenty of towels.

Great location, easy to get into the city. Clean and comfy room.

It’s been really easy and convenient. Would stay there again when I visit Edinburgh

Nice place and close to the city center. It says free street parking but not very feasible and difficult to navigate. We parked at a car park and Uber to the hotel.

Loved this place. The location was perfect, out of the city but not far and bus stops right outside. Restaurants very close. The room was a great size.

Roaches, uncomfortable beds, didn’t clean the room at all in the 4 nights we were there even after we placed the placard on the door to make up the room. Terrible. Overpriced and wouldn’t do that again. Only positive is that it was near public transit.

Location was fantastic. Lovely building. Unfortunately there was a large leak in one of the rooms that had a bucket under it. I emailed the hotel contact on day 1 and haven’t heard back. The dripping carried on all night and kept my youngest up so not ideal. Reading other reviews it seems this room has a historic leak so suggest it needs fixing.

Location was great. Shower was poorly designed in main bedroom. No supply of toilet paper. Damp in basement

The staff were friendly, and there were nice touches, like the complementary refreshments. The room was too hot, though, and there was nothing we could do about it.

We stayed at No 6 West Coates and the carpets were stained. Our room the carpets were also stained. We noticed the sink we not draining properly and the shower we had when turned on only gave cold water. (If we ironically turned the cold water tap on the bathtub, then lukewarm water would come out of the shower). We reported this to the hotel's 24 hour helpdesk by calling, and though despite being promised it would be fixed, they didn't bother to get someone to look at the problem, until we called again in the evening realising when we returned the problem had not been fixed. By then it was too late. They also didn't have another room available to transfer us to. This pretty much ruined our stay.

Very modest basic room.

Apart from the initial hiccup on arrival, the visit was one of the best I have spent in Edinburgh, I do visit the town regularly & I will indeed be spending time there again. The friendliness of the staff, attention to detail, the neatness & most of all the closeness to the town centre a definite plus. THANK YOU!

Fire experience nice chill spot not far from shops or places to go to eat out with your friends, the room was nice and they bit of food in the morning was good aswell a nice little touch, the worker whoever it was was also pretty nice

Private but easily accessible, affordable, good facilities

Muy buen hotel Muy cómoda la habitación, grande y confortable. El baño también, muy cómodo y grande. Muy bien el desayuno. Buena ubicación, ubicado en la calle que pasa el colectivo que te trae del aeropuerto.

Shower didn’t work, pillows stank of sweat, dirty towels left from previous lodgers. We left the property a day early and found accommodation elsewhere it was that poor. Avoid at all costs.

Awful. Heating was terrible and way too cold and hotel unable to offer extra heating or bedding so had to check out

Nice place. E-checkin worked so no interaction. Clean and decent room
