Fabulous - mirrors on the Bar ceiling need attention though silver mirror breaking down and looks unclean
We booked at very short notice and the staff were very helpful and friendly. Great location and good price
Great Location. We came up from London on the train. I was happy that we didn't have to walk up the hills with our luggage. Close to everything, even the back way up to the castle and a great coffee shop across the street. My only thing that I would have liked is a wardrobe in the room. When I'm on holiday, I like to unpack and hang up my clothes and jackets. My room felt cluttered living out of my suitcase for the week. If it was only a few days for business, I wouldn't care. I also would have liked an ironing board and a phone to contact the front desk instead of going down five floors.
A good hotel, accessing some rooms can be difficult, and some have zero views ( except into other rooms).
Conveniently situated next to Waverley train station. Small but comfortable room, as expected and considering its location in the centre of busy Edinburgh, well insulated from noise. Breakfast fairly basic and crowded in the bar area.
Very comfortable and well-appointed room. Friendly staff. The location is ideal for a stay in Edinburgh. Best breakfast I have ever had!
The entry/bar area was inviting and the staff friendly however we found our room extremely hot with aircon that didn’t work effectively. The room was noisy with an open window we didn’t have access to causing lots of street noise to enter our room. Having just flown long haul this played havoc with our ability to sleep. Very limited tv channels with English speaking options. Whilst the location was amazing, we unfortunately won’t return to this establishment.
A great improvement in my view would be to have two separate bed quilts, as I am a quite warm person and my wife is not. I could just not find the right temperature and slept poorly as a result. Still a good experience.
Excellent, but small room
This is the second stay we've had at a Hotel Motel One, the other being the Amsterdam-Waterlooplein location. The room was clean and nicely decorated. We particularly liked the design of the hotel incorporating Scottish themes throughout. The staff was friendly and helpful. The breakfast was nice but we were disappointed to hear that it is no longer included for members. The hotel's location could not be beat.
Zimmer 425 war absolut TOP
very expensive. small room. no glass for the toothbrush, sink is too far away from the faucet - so water always splits over. breakfast room too crowded. Could not find a seat to eat breakfast.
We really enjoyed our stay. There was an issue with a noise in our room on our first night however the night staff dealt with the situation well and the situation was rectified the following day. I felt for the centre of Edinburgh the price was very good, superb location as we travelled by train so was very accessible from Waverley. Would definitely look to stay here again although would only be as a couple as couldn't see the option for twin rooms so can't use for girls trip etc.
The stay was great but the rooms very small and getting to them with bags etc a little difficult.
This was our third Motel One that we stayed at and the room we had was the best out of the 3. The staff was super friendly and accomodating to guests needs. The location was awesome!
We were able to check in as soon S we got there. Location is fantastic. Rooms are quiet, clean, and spacious. The hotel is old and it has different buildings; it took us a few minutes to get to our room and we needed to take two elevators and a glass bridge over a close.
Room was clean, bed was comfortable, staff very helpful. The problem came with the air conditioning or I should say, lack of air conditioning. The room was advertised as having air conditioning and was the deciding factor in renting this room. When I asked about it I was told "oh no it is a chiller.". The chiller took all night to slightly cool down the room. We had to have two small fans running at all times to make it bearable. This in my opinion is false advertising. Do no rent here if you are looking for air conditioning.
Great hotel. Brilliant location for the train station, buses and the Centre if Edinburgh Friendly and helpful staff. Clean rooms
The rooms are well taken care of and comfortable. The only admiration it really needs is central air pressure some form of air conditioning as it can become extremely hot.
We had a large glass of wine and a bottle of cider on our first night in your bar and it cost us nearly £20 which we thought was excessive so we didn't feel we could have a drink in your bar again. Other than that we enjoyed our stay.
Very close to where I wanted to go. The follow up from the staff beforehand and during the stay was excellent. Since they don’t have a “proper” eating place, it can be a challenge to find a place to sit if it’s busy.
1)all toilet paper removed from room first cleaning 2)not enough room/hangers to store clothes 3)wi-fi not password protected
Third time we’ve stayed and will be the last. Room was extremely tired and dated, in fact waking up in that room (326) and looking at blank walls and just a colour block of curtains was actually depressing.Separate small shower and even smaller toilet…good job we’re both slim people as anyone larger would have a problem! No complaints about breakfast but the bubbled flooring in reception really needs attention before someone falls. Over £600 for two nights in a bleak room not even a wardrobe or drawers. I’ll end on a positive note…breakfast good and location is great.
We loved our stay at the hotel and we will definitely stay there again. Thank you☺️
Amazing location and great staff!
Very comfotable stay in a cozy hotelm right in centre of Edinburgh. perfect location, with just steps away from both the railway station and to all city centre attractions. It takes literally 3 minutes to reach the hotel from the Waiverly railway station. The rooms were spacous and welcoming, while the breakfast was accomodating all tastes. We espeially appreciated the hotel evening bar, which provided very good cocktails and overall a nice ending of our sightseeing days. Finally, the staff at the hotel are particularly warm and welcoming, prividing very good travel / restaurants suggestions.
What an amazing location, you step out the door and everything was within walking distance. The service was friendly and always helpful along with a relaxing yummy self-service breakfast. Highly recommend!
Stayed at Motel One Edinburgh Royal from Tuesday - Friday. The hotel was lovely and was in a great location. We didn't eat at the hotel as there was so many options nearby. All staff we met was very friendly. The room was quite small, however, we only used the room to sleep and due to its prime location we were out all day, so only used it to sleep at the end of a busy day. I would recommend this hotel and would definitely stay at again.
Room clean, big and efficient. Bar in the lounge room open until late. Breakfast with fresh cakes, cold meat, fruit, fruit juices, coffee, tea, croissants etc. Staff super friendly and helpful. Reception open 24h. Honestly, the best hotel ever. Thank you for everything, I will definitely come back soon!!!
Great hotel
Beautiful hotel,very convenient for the train stations .
Perfect location with friendly and helpful staff
I've stayed at a Motel One in Berlin and very much enjoyed it, so I was keen to try one in Edinburgh. The proximity to the train station, bus to the airport, and the Royal Mile was fabulous! The front desk people and bartender were cheerful and friendly, my room was spacious and spotless, and I even had a nice view of an alley towards Cockburn St. (I mean that sincerely). I had to leave in a rush so I didn't get breakfast, but I remember the breakfast buffets at Motel One Berlin were impressive, so I assume the same. I would definitely recommend this hotel and stay there again!
All communications were in German for some reason. Even though it was booked for a hotel in Scotland. And there was not "translate" option. Staff were super friendly when we visited, this was our second time coming back. The location can't really be beat. Elevator system is really weird, only one elevator goes to reception. But there is a second hidden elevator around the corner. Was given an accessible room, and so the shower was too low for a normal person to use. Would have just like the option for the shower to go higher
Fantastic, the room was as good as you could wish. Asked for a room near the lift as my husband had a sore back and they arranged that.
Really enjoyed my stay again. I was on the fourth floor (405) and my window was frosted and faced the alley of a restaurant. There was a lot of noise at times with conversions of the restaurant staff and often late at night. I wish there would’ve been more sound proofing and been able to open my window and see the weather. It felt like an internal cabin of a cruise boat. Other than that the staff was helpful and the location is great. Always like Motel One hotels.
Good room, nice shower. Thought the selection at breakfast for a vegan was a little limited. The addition of some pastries and cold vegan meats would make it a load better
WE had a problem with our reservation and they fixed it on the spot, no charge for the change. Thanks
Perfect location, clean and comfortable accomodations.
I enjoyed my stay at Motel One. My room and bed were comfortable and I had everything I needed. The hotel rooms were quiet and the reception areas were friendly and bustling. The convience to the Royal Mile and train station was everything. Highly recommend!
Great location. Nice facilities. Clean. Needs more options on breakfast.
Perfect place to stay in Edinburgh! Wonderful staff, location and relaxed feel.
Great hotel in central location! Room was lovely and clean and spacious
A really comfortable stay in the heart of Edinburgh. The staff were friendly and helpful and the room was spacious and comfortable. Would have been good to have some bottled water in the room and a small chest of drawers to put clothing away.
The only thing that I can complain is the location of room. It was next to advocate close ladders. Because of that it was noisy during all time of the day. Other than that I come again.
First we got a room from another building with a very complicated access and a terrible view straight to stairs where crowds of people were hoarding. We asked for another room which was in the main building and it was fine and quiet.
Et rigtigt dejligt hotel, som vi havde fået anbefalet. Det levede fuldt ud op til forventningerne. Det eneste minus var at gulvet knirkede vildt meget fra værelset ovenover os. Og de må have gået meget rundt - for vi vågnede om natten ved det da det var ret højt! Lækker morgenmadsbuffet med et stort udvalg af slt man kunne forestille sig at spise til morgenmad.
Pænt, rent og nyt. Morgenmaden var fin
Perfekt beliggenhed, pæne værelser, dejlig atmosfære og serviceminded personale. Dog kunne “rengøring” i lounge området måske kunne gøres lidt bedre efter morgenmaden. Da jeg skulle rykke på et bord, var det så fedtet under bordpladen, at jeg blev nødt til at gå på værelset for at vaske hænder. En sød personale kom for at tørre bordet, men det var med sprayflaske og tør klud, det bør gøres med vand og sæbe.. ellers alt rigtig fint.
Fint ophold, rare mennesker i receptionen, god morgenmad og ok værelser - vil anbefale til venner

Grønne designdrømme
På Motel One Edinburgh-Royal ønsker vi at give vores gæster en kongelig modtagelse og har i overført betydning derfor rullet den røde, øh vi mener den turkise løber ud for dig. Med Edinburghs gamle bydel som kulisse – der for øvrigt er erklæret UNESCO verdenskulturarv – byder vi indenfor i en historisk bygning med et nøje gennemtænkt og lokalt inspireret designkoncept: Her møder royal landstil den vilde natur og de store vidder fra det skotske højland. Godt nok er vores hotelfarve egentlig turkis, men her er der således også mange grønne nuancer i spil. Vi har kort sagt hentet charmen ved det skotske landskab direkte ind i hotellet, blandt andet ved hjælp af botaniske dekorationsdetaljer og en receptionsbagvæg smykket med ægte bregner og mos. Disse grønne indslag ledsages af naturfotografen Thomas Effingers smukke fotografier af Skotlands flora og fauna. De stemningsfulde fotografier gør sig især godt på værelserne, hvor de hænger over sengenes hovedgærder.
Apropos senge ligger du som altid yderst bekvemt i vores dejlig boxsenge med springmadras. Og skulle du alligevel have svært ved at falde i søvn, kan du jo altid gå i gang med at tælle får: Fåreskulpturer af kunstneren Marie Talalaeff pryder nemlig væggene i vores One Lounge. Hvis du er mere til whisky end til at tælle får, kan du roligt sætte dig til rette i vores velassorterede bar. Her hælder vi ikke kun whisky i glasset, men bruger også den skotske nationaldrik som designelement: Den lysende himmel over bardisken består nemlig af 50 whisky-karafler, hvilket sørger for den helt rigtige stemning i baren. Ny dag, nye muligheder: Efter en hyggelig aften med et glas whisky eller to er det godt at have en solid morgenmad at se frem til. Du skulle jo nødig sove dit ophold i fortryllende Edinburgh væk!
Du når uden problemer frem til din royale residens i Edinburgh via stationen Waverly eller med bus fra Edinburgh Airport. I det hele taget er designhotellets centrale placering et stort plus: her bor du kun få sidegader fra den berømte Royal Mile og mange af byens øvrige attraktioner. Takket være de korte afstande udgør vores billige hotel den perfekte base for sightseeing og shopping i centrum. Nyd en slentretur langs Royal Mile, gå shopamok i Edinburgh centrum, eller bliv klogere på landets historie i National Museum of Scotland. Andre attraktioner i nærheden omfatter byens botaniske have, Princes Street, Scott Monument og John Knox House. Al den sightseeing og shopping gør én sulten, og heldigvis finder du talrige pubs, restauranter og caféer i nærheden af hotellet. Trænger du til at undslippe byens hektiske puls for en stund, kan du bestige det gamle vulkanbjerg Arthur's Seat, der ligger i Holyrood Park kun en kort gåtur fra centrum. Fra den 251m høje bjergtop har du en fantastisk udsigt over både byen, Edinburgh Castle og Calton Hill. Andre spændende udflugtsmål i området omfatter besøg på et whiskydestilleri, hvor du kan prøvesmage Skotlands berømte gyldne dråber. Skål! Eller som skotterne siger: "Slàinte mhath!"
