Top Edinburgh Fringe Festival Hotel Reviews
Apex Waterloo Place Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"It was perfect to stay here in a very busy August 2026. No need for jumpers this year! We never even looked at the pool as we were enjoying being out and about watching fringe ‘things’. Great location and lovely staff, Really appreciated the air con and the fluffy bath towels. Very comfortable bed. The bistro looked amazing but the breakfast was just OK. Didn’t care much for the coffee machine and the choice of pastries was limited, especially with such wonderful bakery’s on the door step."
Point A Edinburgh Haymarket
10/10 Excellent
"Nice place. Nice staff. Quite rooms"
Apex Grassmarket Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"First of all, the location. If you are visiting during summer festival season, this is absolutely perfect. Hotels along the golden mile would be SO NOISY at night. This is only a few minutes' walk from everything you want to see in the city and Grassmarket is busy and fun during the day but quiets right down at 10:30pm. Second, the staff. We had such nice staff members assist us while we were in Edinburgh. A huge hats off to Alex in the dining room who made every morning fantastic! Finally, the breakfast. Come hungry! I didn't know Haggis was a breakfast food but now I'll be making that at home, There's a buffet and a menu to order from - make sure you sign up for the included breakfast because that cost will save you a fortune by allowing you to skip sit-down restaurants and just get a snacky lunch."
Market Street Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"The room was clean. The staff was very help full. Very beautifull hotel. Entry way was confusing."
Motel One Edinburgh-Royal
8/10 Good
"Can’t fault the hotel for much except that it does not provide lotion or conditioner, so make sure you have your own."
CODE - The Court, Edinburgh
10/10 Excellent
"Really lovely private room and easy walking distance to everything there is to see and do in Edinburgh."
Virgin Hotels Edinburgh
10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful property and perfect location"
Hilton Edinburgh Carlton
8/10 Good
"Rooms were clean, breakfast and lounge was well stocked and the staff were polite and helpful. The location is easy to get anywhere and though no parking, they have some discount while parking at the Waverly station car park. There's a lot of scaffolding and elevators are limited due to construction"
Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection
10/10 Excellent
"Great location for exploring Edinburgh Fringe. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly (particularly at the front desk). Lovely breakfast."
