Staff were very helpful with our needs especially Rijaq who helped providing the fire alarm system for us as we are deaf in case of fire at night. Room was a tad small but it is well maintained and clean. Breakfast is good. Choices of cereal, fruit and cooked breakfast. If we come back to Edinburgh again probably for the Military Tattoo, we will go back there, if the price is right, of course.

No frills, but Good Value

Great location - very close to the center of all the best attractions and sights. The room was good quality for the price. I only struggled with keeping the room a comfortable temperature at night and the water pressure in the shower could've been better. Overall though, the room is a good value for price and a good option for sure.

Great stay, brill idea they have also, skip the room clean, get a £5 voucher off food and drink, and you can ask for clean towels on top of that

Avoid

I would avoid this hotel at all costs. Having spent the previous night in another local hotel that only cost £30 more I found the Ibis very over priced. It’s shabby and run down. My sink didn’t drain properly and smelt as a result. The sheets a scratchy and the staff seem disinterested.

You pay for location. It is perfect for conveniently seeing the Royal Mile. However, the hotel is way overpriced and poor. We booked months in advance to receive a small room by the kitchen. The room was dirty and had no sound protection. The bed was a Matt on a box spring. Super disappointed in this location.

The area is super convenient but very active. We had an exterior room and could hear all the street noise throughout the night. Bed was not very comfortable. Cleaning staff seemed to come at random times of the day. Breakfast had many offerings.

The location is wonderful. Very central Royal mile. However, my door wouldn’t shut properly. They did come look at it but we had to let it slam shut and I felt bad for the people near us. The room was okay. Needs some updating and the outlet didn’t work. Otherwise it was fine for a one night stay.
