This was our second stay here, and we’d go back again. The rooms are fairly spacious and have all the basic amenities you’d need. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great, with plenty of options. Great central location to see a lot of beautiful Edinburgh sights, and walking distance to Waverley station too!

Fantastic location. Walking distance to nearly everything, including 5 minutes from the train station. They offer a very Euro style breakfast for additional charge, that I saw as minimal value. Staff is friendly and helpful. Room bed is quite small as is the room, somewhat expected. What was not expected was the inability to keep a reasonable temperature. The room on floor 6, including our traveling partners several doors down were very warm. I had to sleep on the sheets each night. For an overall cost of almost $300 US per night, I am mixed as to the high cost off set the location. If breakfast was included or there were additional offerings perhaps. Edinburgh itself is expensive but beautiful.

Staff friendly & helpful Hotel location great Short walk from Market Street exit from Waverley Station. Easy walk to Princess Street and a short walk to Royal Mile (although up hill). A few minor touch ups needed - bathroom door has some dents from room door hitting it and ketgle has to be moved to boik as sockets not near enough. Rm 701

Continental breakfast without hot foods. Staff was excellent and focused on pleasant exchanges and were helpful. We were told there would be “welcome water” in the room but there wasn’t and we had to purchase bottled water from the bar. Otherwise, nice and updated. Room was warm, but they brought us a fan to use for sleeping.

I had a lovely stay at the Motel One in Edinburgh. The location really can't be beat, and the staff were very helpful in recommending places to check out. One thing to note in Scotland is that in-room fridges and clocks are not common here, so plan accordingly.

This hotel is super convenient from the tramstation and very easy access to the Royal Mile. It was easy to access all of the tourist spots with no problem. Many food and pub options in the area as well. Mornings were a bit on the noisy side with staff cleaning and turning rooms over. I had a great stay and recommend.

I didnt use the bar or breakfast facilities. My only issue was the fact the rooms are so spread out. The first room offered you had to use two different lifts to change floors to access it and walk through a rabbit warren of corridors. I have a sore knee so found the distance too far. I was moved to a closer room but this was still quite far away but did only need 1 lift to access it. When I asked why there is nothing on the website or when booking to explain as to why you need to access a different building I was told the room is only allocated the day before so it may not have been so. Still time to warn customers as I would not have stayed if I had known this.
