Avoid

I would avoid this hotel at all costs. Having spent the previous night in another local hotel that only cost £30 more I found the Ibis very over priced. It’s shabby and run down. My sink didn’t drain properly and smelt as a result. The sheets a scratchy and the staff seem disinterested.

You pay for location. It is perfect for conveniently seeing the Royal Mile. However, the hotel is way overpriced and poor. We booked months in advance to receive a small room by the kitchen. The room was dirty and had no sound protection. The bed was a Matt on a box spring. Super disappointed in this location.

The area is super convenient but very active. We had an exterior room and could hear all the street noise throughout the night. Bed was not very comfortable. Cleaning staff seemed to come at random times of the day. Breakfast had many offerings.

The location is wonderful. Very central Royal mile. However, my door wouldn’t shut properly. They did come look at it but we had to let it slam shut and I felt bad for the people near us. The room was okay. Needs some updating and the outlet didn’t work. Otherwise it was fine for a one night stay.

Great hotel in a brilliant central location. Everything within walking distance. Polite and friendly staff. Only gripe was a noisy room due to the wind whistling outside. Not a complaint of the hotel, just an observation. Would definitely recommend and would stay there again!

A great location just off the Royal Mile. Desk staff were fantastic. We stayed here based on location, wanting to walk the Royal Mile and experience this part of Edinburgh. Would definitely stay here again.
