The Haymarket Hotel

Very close to the center, practically next to the train station, bus and tram stop. We didn't use public transport much, because all the places were just within walking distance - Royal Botanic garden, Dean Village, Edinburgh Castle, Calton Hill, National Museum of Scotland, etc.

When we booked our room we ask for twin beds, but instead, we get one big bed with one (huge) blanket. Even though we asked to remake the beds, they did not do that and all three nights we slept together as a couple :D But the bed was king size and the blanket as well, so it was not a big deal.

1. Nice hotel in 15-20 mins walk from the old part of the city. 2. Rooms are clean, calm, with required equipment (e.g. hair dryer) 3. There is a bus stop to and from airport near hotel. Bus works 24/7 4. There is a small supermarket nearby 5. Reception can keep your bags for free till registration

Registration desk is one building, but rooms are in many other buildings on the same street. These buildings have different names. It looks like there were different hotels before. In general it does not impact your stay. If you buy day bus tours, it may take up to 30 mins to go to the point where tours start.

Large room and large bathroom. very clean and comfortable. great linens. Good location within a 20 min walk of the sites and right near Haymarket tram to the Edinburgh airport or the Haymarket train stop.

When we checked in they had issues finding our reservation we made through booking.com because when they switched systems in March apparently the reservations did not transfer properly (we had booked in Feb). They asked us to sit while they figured it out which took an hour. I thought we were not going to get our room because they said they did not have one available. after an hour they found a room for us and gave us drink vouchers for the mixup. It all worked out but would have been nice if the guy had apologized and ensured us we would have a room vs making us sit there concerned for an hour. Other than this the place was great.

Good location in the city and well connected by public transport, including the tram to the airport which has a station 3 minutes away by walking. The rooms are actually spread in different local houses at that address. Decent size room, and the bathroom was clean and big enough to feel comfortable. Very nice staff and excellent English breakfast. However, there are not too many options besides that - but that is common in my experience with English hotels which are not part of a big brand.

Perfect location combined with the charme of an historic building. Buses, tram, trains are nearby (Haymarket Station). The city centre is in walking distance. The single room I had was cosy and had a nice view to the garden/backyard.

The price seemed to be quite high on the particular weekend I was there with more than 150 GBP for a single room. (However, to be fair, increased prices were the case for most of the hotels at the time of my booking in Edinburgh.)

Room 40 was lovely. It was a very large room with a huge bed and nicely decorated. The bathroom was lovely and the shower was excellent. The towels were large soft and fluffy.

The only thing I didn't like was there was no snib on the yale lock to securely lock your door when in your room. The key for the room was the same as the one for the front door, so I presume anyone in that building could of unlocked your door.

The location of this hotel is great, right by Haymarket station (2/3 min walk), yet on a quiet side street. We had a basement room which I was nervous was going to be dark but not at all - it was a beautifully light, spacious room with its own little garden/courtyard area, as the hotel is on a slant. It was very clean and comfortable.

Very little. We stayed while both the Edinburgh marathon and Harry Styles concert was happening, therefore the price was fairly elevated, but this was to be expected.

Reception staff is so helpful, friendly and kind! There is always someone to talk to when you need help. Very kindly they also helped carry my bags down the stairs when I checked out! The location is quiet, there are several nice cafés nearby, the bed was comfortable, the complimentary sea kelp soap/shampoo was lovely and even though the room was tiny, it was functional.

Not happy about the cleaning - apparently one one set of clean towels per stay because the cleaning staff just rehung the ones I left dirty on the floor. Also, no welcome folder to tell you how things work, not like there was last time I stayed here - my room wasn't cleaned for two days, because you are supposed to put a sign on the doorknob for cleaning, only there was no such sign in the room (but I was given one when I asked the reception on the third day why nobody cleaned the room,a and after that it worked)... A welcome folder would have been good.

After a week in a cramped space in London, this lovely room felt like a mansion! Spacious, clean, well lit, multiple outlets including USB outlets. Quick response to replace a light-bulb in the bathroom. Wonderful shower and an unexpected towel-warmer! We were staying downstairs in our unit, so the downstairs entrance was a step-saving bonus. I think the location is excellent -- far enough away from the city to be a little less congested, but a 20-minute walk or a short tram ride. It was also nice to be so close to the tram for our travel from and to the airport. We would absolutely stay here again.

I was surprised that there wasn't a small refrigerator somewhere in the room. That's really the only thing that I found lacking at all. Everything else met or surpassed expectations.

Beautiful, big room and the hotel's location is perfect. Just a few meters to Haymarket station and a nice walk to the city center. Very kind and helpful hotel staff who made us feel welcome. I loved the warm breakfast. It was a welcome change from continental breakfast.

There was dust on the furniture, when we arrived and every once in a while we received towels with stains. We stayed over a week and the cleaning staff didn't seem to clean the water taps, shower, toilet or floor during our stay. The rooms were quite pricey.
