“Exceptional Service - above and beyond”
+Accomidations were exceptional, but the staff and management were even more exceptional. I had lost my phone on the train before I arrived at "The Place." Everyone was particularly very gracious and helpful to do everything they could to help. They helped me locate my phone, but since I couldn't retrieve it while I was there, they also helped me contact my family, contact the lost property division of the train station, book a tour, call cabs,..anything I needed. Exceptional service, far beyond my expectations!

“Two night break in Edinburgh”
+A gem of a hotel within reasonable walking distance of Waverley Station. Staff were very warm and friendly, we were given upgrade to “Crime Room” which was spacious and well equipped with comfortable bed, tea and coffee facilities and separate bathroom with bath and double shower. Communal areas were clean and elegantly furnished, with a well stocked bar. Breakfast was comprehensive, so much so that on the second morning I had to ask for less to which staff were happy to oblige. Very well presented food options with copious amounts of tea/coffee. We were able to leave our bags on the final morning to allow us to enjoy Edinburgh without bringing bags with us. The hotel offers great value for money and I would recommend it should you visit the city.

“Good location & amenities, lack of soundproofing can make for a louder night though. Would stay again for night or two”
+A great location on a slightly quieter street of Edinburgh, easy walk to the city though. Tram is ~5 minute walk to the hotel, which makes life easy. The staff are all really friendly and helpful. We stayed in a Cosy double room, which was clean & well equipped (the shower was amazing..!) The only downsides are the thin walls (could hear the room next to us snoring) and people in the hallway chatting. The room doesn’t have A/C or an opening window, so can get quite hot without a way to cool it down. Overall, a handy and nice place to stay for a night or two.

“Wonderful Find!”
+We stayed here while visiting Edinburgh for my partner's birthday. Having stayed in numerous venues throughout the city we decided to try this place. We were not disappointed. The customer service was impeccable, with super-friendly and helpful staff. The location is great - very central and convenient to most amenities. The bar and breakfast area were beautifully done out, with lots of attention to detail, providing a warm & welcoming ambience. Our room was small, but had everything we needed. Our waitress asked our plans at breakfast, and when we stated we were celebrating a birthday, she returned shortly thereafter with a beautiful selection of cakes, with a chocolate "Happy Birthday" written on the plate. I would definitely recommend giving this place a try. It also has a beautiful outdoor space for warmer weather. Many thanks to all the staff for making our stay so special.

“The Place Hotel Edinburgh”
+My wife and I are recently back home after a couple of days at this hotel. I have to say, I can't find fault. Spotlessly clean, quiet & comfy rooms with everything you need. Breakfast was amazing. But the staff made it all the more enjoyable, by way of politeness, and being helpful. Recommended!
