Portobello Beach Hotels in Edinburgh, United Kingdom

Very excellent hotel especially for the price compared to other hotels,staff where very friendly and helpful ,the room was excellent as I read that some said was dated but I was impressed so no complaints and I would defo stay again .

My friend and I stayed 2nights there and staffs were English proficient and very very friendly. The hotel got nice hot breakfast meal - which is very seldom for a European hotel to offer a free hot meal. You can either select smoked salmon with scrambled egg or sausage/bacon/eggs-whichever you prefer how it is cooked/beans/grilled tomato and a buffet of fruits cereal etc. It was refreshing to have that kind of meal. Room is clean and the toilet too. Room has wifi although reception area doesn't have one,but it's more important for the room to have wifi right!? I would recommend this hotel with a perfect view of Edinburgh Castle. Just request to have a room on the street side to have this view. Don't get he 5th floor rooms as their lifts only services upto 4th floor. Other than than this hotel is just perfect. ☺️☺️☺️

Great cocktails, great food and very prompt room service. Very clean we were given the Beijing suite which was fab.

We really enjoyed our stay at the hotel after travelling to Edinburgh by rail. It was nice and central for all the activities we had planned which included going to the Art Gallery, the National Records of Scotland building and other tourist attractions. The railway station is just across Princes Street from the hotel and the coach station is about 5 minute walk away. The hotel was very nice in itself with good dining facilities and other services such as WiFi. The staff were very helpful and friendly.

Reception is usually your first encounter with hotel staff and on arrival we were meet with a warm smile which was a good start. Luckily, our engagement with every member of staff turned out to be exactly the same. We didn't encounter any staff member who wasn't friendly and polite with us and we actually felt like they wanted us there. The hotel is in a great location, one block back from Princess Street. There is a tram stop at the end of the street and across St Andrews Square. If you arrive by tram, the distance from the tram stop is an easy 4 minute walk on flat ground. There is a bar attached to the hotel that was very busy on Friday evening - this shows how popular it is. The same area is where the breakfast is served. Breakfast had good quality food at what I would say was about an average hotel price for a cooked breakfast. I enjoyed it! From a location and friendliness perspective you can't go wrong with this hotel. I would be very happy to stay here again.

The bus from the airport left us a few steps away from the hotel. Location was excellent. The room was nice, a little small but it had a small kitchenette with microwave, refrigerator, etc, and coffee and tea for every day. Would recommend it.

This was my 2nd stay at this specific hotel, and each time I always have a wonderful time with them. Whether you're arriving by train or plane, this is the BEST location in Edinburgh. The AirLink bus from Edinburgh Airport and the Weaverly Train Station are both just a half a block from the hotel. As someone who HATES to drag their luggage...this location is perfect! The rooms are clean and efficient (but in a good way). The breakfast is also one of the best I've had. The hotel staff is friendly, helpful, and always have a smile for you. I enjoyed this hotel so much, I now always keep an eye out for a Motel One when traveling to other cities in Europe.

This hotel couldn't really be in a better location. I booked a single room for 2 night and got a family room. It was an absolute bargain considering I booked a couple of days beforehand.
