Top Tollcross Hotel Reviews

Aparthotel Adagio Edinburgh Royal Mile

10/10 Excellent

"Great value aparthotel in the middle of historic Edinburgh - perfect!"

Moxy Edinburgh Airport

10/10 Excellent

"A great option for staying close to Edinburgh Airport! I always stay here when I fly in the morning. However, the pathway to the airport itself could be in better condition and better signposted - there are no clearly indicated pedestrian crossings so one has to drag the bags through rough pavements and jump in before cars to cross."

YOTEL Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is in a great central location for walking. I woman at the front desk was just absolutely amazing. Friendly and helpful and a great sense of humor. Her name was Bee for short. The room was nice. The interesting part was the hotel is older and is not equipped with AC. They put portable AC units in the room and vent them thru the window. They also put an oscillating fan in the room as well. I was curious as to how this was going to play out. It went great. The room stayed cold. I mean cold not cool. We stayed in the summer months. The room was spacious, and bed was comfortable. So even with the window open slightly to allow venting from the AC we didn't get any street sounds up into the room. The area is quiet at night. No issues at all and they had black out curtains as well. "
