What a great place to stay. Very central with a quick walk to everything. The room was very nice and so convenient having a washer/dryer right in the room. Friendly staff and having breakfast foods in our room for the whole stay when we checked in was great and they gladly provide additional if needed.

The location of the Holyrood Aparthotel was absolutely amazing. The hotel was very clean, and all the cooking amenities were excellent. Having a washing machine with detergent provided meant I was able to come home with a case full of clean clothes. Would highly recommended as a place to stay in Edinburgh and would happily return again.

This place was a decent stay. Central and clean. It’s a little tired and in need of an update. The elevator was broken down for the entire visit and the cleaners came banging on our door 10 minutes before checkout time only to deliver an ultimatum that we needed to be out in five minutes. That really pissed me off.

Adequate and comfortable room, right off the Royal Mile. It’s worth noting that, however, that although breakfast is advertised as an optional add-on, there’s no restaurant on-site. Instead, a small variety of items are left in the room for you to choose from during your stay.

Nice big apartment and good location for the main hub of The Royal Mile. There was also a washer/dryer which came in handy. Very quiet as set back off the main road. Only problem for us was that the power kept tripping randomly and we had to go down for reception to go and reset it. It became a bit of a pain after a couple of days. Not sure if this happens in every room but it was an inconvenience to us. Overall, well priced for what you got and location.
