Chose hotel for convenient location near Edinburgh Castle. 24-hour reception and high standards of quality and service made for an extremely comfortable stay. Free WiFi throughout the property was a pleasant surprise, and the bar/lounge offered freshly brewed barista coffee with an assortment of hot and cold snacks.
Inconvenient parking, inadequate directions. Wifi not functional in the room.

The room at Motel One Edinburgh-Royal was super comfy with a modern vibe. The queen-size bed felt like a cloud, and the en suite bathroom was a nice little sanctuary. The free WiFi was a lifesaver for staying connected on a budget.
I wished there were more TV channels available, but that's just me.

The hotel's stylish decor and comfortable rooms made me feel like a fancy lady. The location is a dream, close to the train station and all the exciting attractions. Staff were lovely and helpful.
Oh, how I missed having a vending machine for reasonably priced water. Had to splurge £2 per bottle at the bar!

Ball chairs and tables made from whiskey barrels create a contemporary Scottish take on mid-century modern style. It felt like sipping a fine single malt while lounging in a fashionable urban setting. The blend of tradition and modernity made me feel like a character from a trendy historical novel.
Noisy at night due to revelers returning from pubs and bars.

This hotel was perfectly located in the heart of town, with everything close by. We were just a short walk from the train station, which made getting around a breeze. The room was spotless and comfortable, with a big, clean bathroom. The service was second to none, with all staff being friendly and always willing to help. Breakfast was continental, but the buffet-style had a good variety. we enjoyed a pleasant stay at a reasonably priced hotel.
The room could have done with a small fridge to keep our drinks cold.

At my go-to place in Edinburgh, I always get top-notch service and a cozy room. The staff even helped me with plug adaptors on my first stay. The amenities, like Wi-Fi and a 24-hour reception, suit me perfectly. Can't wait to go back next weekend!

The location was superb and close to all the attractions. The staff was friendly, and they upgraded my room for free. It was clean and cozy with a lovely view. Breakfast was delicious, with many options available.
I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the city. The only downside was the lack of power sockets in the room, but that did not detract from my experience.

Loved the convenient location, just steps away from the train station and a short walk to the main attractions. The room was cozy and well-designed, with a fireplace channel on the TV that added a nice touch. The bathroom, although small, had a decent sized shower. Plus, there was a great coffee place nearby where we enjoyed breakfast.

I recently stayed at a fantastic budget hotel in a prime location in the heart of the city. Motel One Edinburgh-Royal, just a stone's throw away from Waverley station, provided a perfect base for exploring the city. The breakfast and bar area offered breathtaking views of the gardens and Cockburn Street. I particularly enjoyed the delicious fresh fruit salad for breakfast. The staff were exceptional, allowing me to leave my luggage after check-out and providing great service throughout my stay. a wonderful experience!
Was all great.

It was so convenient to be close to the airport bus and right next to the train station. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the basic amenities were all provided. The rooms were comfortable, with a lovely shower and nice views. Plus, breakfast was offered, which was a nice touch.
All in all, everything was absolutely fine.

The hotel’s décor is simply delightful. The stylish and comfortable seating areas are perfect for enjoying a cup of tea while admiring the contemporary Scottish take on mid-century modern style. The hotel's convenient location close to the train station and the historical sites makes it very accessible for senior people, allowing for easy exploration of the charming surroundings.
I would only ask for a better vacation for senior people if there were more comfortable seating options in the common areas.

We had a wonderful stay in a centrally located hotel, close to bars, restaurants, and transportation. The room was clean, spacious, and had a fantastic shower. The staff were friendly and helpful, even allowing an early check-in. Although breakfast was not included, there were plenty of options nearby. The only downside was the lack of plug sockets in the bedroom. we had a great experience and would definitely recommend it to others.

I recently stayed at Motel One Edinburgh-Royal for a weekend getaway. The staff members, especially trainees Tarak and a guy from the Manchester hotel, were incredibly helpful during a fire evacuation. The hotel had a modern yet friendly atmosphere, with exceptionally clean and spacious rooms. I loved the organic soaps and the environmentally-friendly paper cups. The location was superb, and the breakfast selection was great. I highly recommend this hotel.
Would be happy to recommend this hotel.

My recent stay at Motel One in Edinburgh was fantastic. The location was unbeatable, just a short walk from the train station and within easy reach of all the major attractions. The room I stayed in had a wonderful view of the Christmas market on Princess Street, creating a festive atmosphere. The room itself was spacious and well-equipped, providing all the amenities I needed for a comfortable stay. Despite a couple of minor drawbacks, such as a lack of control over the room temperature and a small TV, these did not significantly impact my overall experience. The staff were friendly and helpful, ensuring that I had everything I needed during my stay. The cleanliness of the room was also impressive. I would highly recommend Motel One to anyone visiting Edinburgh.

We had an amazing stay at Motel One in the heart of the city. The hotel was modern, clean, and welcoming. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the en suite bathroom was fresh and well-maintained. Our room overlooked the city park and train station, offering a lovely view. The location was perfect - within a 15-20 minute walk to all the main tourist attractions, cafes, and shops. The staff were exceptional, going above and beyond for us. They even decorated the room for my boyfriend's birthday and allowed us to check in early. We felt truly valued and cared for during our four-night stay. We will definitely be recommending this hotel to our friends and family and look forward to returning ourselves someday soon.
Nothing, it is perfect.

Mind-blowing location right across from the train station and bus tours. SUPER quiet and the bathroom was jaw-dropping after a long flight. The nearby mall with a food court made the breakfast option unnecessary. Highly recommended!

The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, enhancing our overall experience. The relaxation facilities, like the TV room, added to our enjoyment, while the nearby landmarks, such as The Real Mary King's Close and Calton Hill.

The bar and lounge area at Motel One Edinburgh-Royal are a haven for culinary delights, especially the legendary fish and chips that left our taste buds singing. The central location is unbeatable, with easy access to Edinburgh's top attractions, and the staff's warm hospitality added a cozy touch to our stay.
Didn't fancy the perplexing journey to our room on the Cockburn side—it felt like a maze! Breakfast was a bit of a hustle at 9 a.m., but we found solace in a nearby cafe.

Motel One Edinburgh-Royal fits in well with the rest of Edinburgh's Old Town scenery, with its charming and traditional exterior blending seamlessly into the historic surroundings. The elegant and modern interior design perfectly complements this classic facade, creating a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere. The hotel's prime location made it easy for me to explore the city after my business meetings, with top attractions such as the Royal Mile and Edinburgh Castle just a short walk away. The cozy bar and lounge area provided a great space to unwind in the evenings, and the friendly staff were always on hand to offer helpful tips for making the most of my stay.

I recently stayed at Motel One in Edinburgh for a weekend getaway. The room was spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated, with a large bathroom featuring a shower cubicle. I appreciated the tea and coffee making facilities, as well as the TV and reliable wifi signal. The hotel's central location made it easy to access all the main attractions and bus routes, including the tour buses. The bar and lounge area, spanning two levels, was comfortable and inviting. The staff, especially Adam and Monty, were incredibly friendly, helpful, and polite throughout my stay. They truly made me feel welcome and taken care of.

The location was amazing, right in the heart of the city. It made it super easy to explore both the old town and Princes Street. Plus, being across the road from the train station was a major convenience. No noisy trains though, surprisingly! And the view from our room on the 6th floor was simply breathtaking. Clean rooms, comfy beds, and a great shower - everything you need for a comfortable stay.
The only downside was not having a choice of a room with a view. We booked last minute so it wasn't a big deal for us, but if you're particular about that, make sure to ask in advance.
