We loved the cleanliness, location, and the breakfast was amazing! Small areas for improvement are ramp for the luggage, more storage in the room, and washcloths.
This hotel is a hidden gem. It was perfect location to the train station and all the town had to offer. The staff was so helpful and friendly. They also gave us local places to make sure to visit. I would highly recommend and would stay there again.
Wonderful hotel and great location to everything...highly recommend.
Fantastic position to visit Edinburgh and very clean. Very small room (wardrobe little and difficult to use). Room 113 noisy and to exposed to the street. no courtesy toilet kit no slippers. The breakfast i monotonous, no scrambled eggs, no pancakes.
I had an excellent stay at Motel One Edinburgh and highly recommend it. The staff were incredibly attentive, friendly, and went out of their way to ensure a smooth and comfortable experience. The location is absolutely superb—right in the heart of the city, within walking distance of major attractions, restaurants, and transport links. My room was spotless, well-maintained, and stylishly designed, offering a perfect balance of comfort and functionality. Overall, a fantastic value for money. I’ll definitely stay here again!
Great place, easy to reach, lovely furniture, spacious room, good breakfast. I would improve the complimentary toiletries, and possibly offer slippers.
The overall cleaning is terrible. Of the hotel Generally, dust everywhere. In 5 days the shower towels where changed only once and when you did, they where stained. We put the towel on the floor several times for them to be changed and you’d simply put them back on the shower, after being on the floor… about the staff I have to say that the beard big guy of the bar is more than rude. He don’t know how to treat customers, talks in an ironic and passive-agressive way, it’s not acceptable. In one of the evenings I asked for a slice of bread and butter because I was bad of my stomach and couldn’t eat anything else… bread and butter, not rocket science, and products you have, and to a customer who was not feeling well. The lady at the bar told me it was not possible and that I had to choose a menu toast. Also not acceptable…
Hotel was awesome. Location cannot be beat. Room was in excellent condition bathroom was very good. The bed was super comfortable. Room was a bit warm but still very good
Comfortable room, Friendly helpful staff and perfect position for facilities
This was my mistake, The receptionist offered us a room with a view, but told us it would be an acessible room, my every thought was to say no, but I accepted it. Big mistake, in the room there was a strong smell, we were unsure if it was some kind of airfreshner or disinfectant. But we went out hoping it would be gone, but it was not on our return it was still there, we just thought , it's only for one night, but we had a terrible sleep and woke up with headaches and nausea, it felt like we had slept in a hospital. I did not complain as it was my error of judgement, but I certainly will never return to Motel one
The room was much smaller than it looked in the photos. No hotel slippers were provided. There was no minibar. Maybe these are not listed in the hotel features, but I’ve never stayed in a hotel without slippers and a minibar before. The entire lighting system works with a single switch—so either all the lights are on, or all are off. There was no power outlet in the bathroom, which I’ve never seen before either. After room cleaning, only the bed sheet was straightened—no sheet change, no vacuuming or mopping. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was very good. The location was probably the best in the city.
Great hotel to venture out & explore the city. It's in the ideal spot for that. Good choice of breakfast & the room & bed was very comfortable. Very happy with our stay
Room was very basic. Limited storage and sockets awkward for using hairdryer etc. Tv was very difficult to connect and was buffering for most of the times we tried to switch it on. Bed was comfortable. Shower was good.
Great location not far from the railway station. Ideally situated for getting around and overlooking Princess St park.
Lovely room, and staff so helpful
Nice, quiet room with a nice view of Cockburn Street, although a bit of a walk to get to said room. Arriving at 9am from Toronto, I was grateful to be given the room immediately upon check in, rather than waiting for the standard 3pm check in time. The hotel is in a perfect location, halfway between Royal Mile and Princes' Street, as well as situated directly across from the train station as well as Waverley Bridge, where I caught the airport shuttle the morning of my flight home. Very convenient. My only complaint is of a minor nature; I always appreciate a face cloth and shower cap in a hotel room, but I actually brought my own, having read the reviews prior to travelling. I did miss a fridge, though. That's a must for me in any hotel room. The staff were accommodating by storing my food items in their fridge, but, although I was assured that someone was available at the front desk 24/7, coming downstairs at 5:30am the day of departure, I was hard pressed to find any member of staff to retrieve my items. I finally located two in a kitchen by following the smell of toast! I also like the convenience of a fridge, in order to be able to enjoy a juice and yogurt in my room, before leaving for the airport. Also, many rooms provide a bottle of water and a phone! The lack of a landline surprised me. Given that I was alone, should an emergency take place, there would really be no way of contacting the front desk, short of googling the hotel website. Apart from the lack of certain amenities, the reasonably priced buffet breakfast, cool quiet room, and perfect location merit a 9 out of 10 score from me.
Great. Quiet room, excellent location and staff.
Bit of a mixed bag. Almost everything was good as expected from previous stays at Moel One. However the room was a bit of a let down. Six coat hangers with a small rail, absolutely nothing else for storage of clothes etc. Not really acceptable for a 3 night stay for two people. Breakfast good value.
clean, friendly, great value and great location
Great location, friendly team!
Lovely hotel in a great position. Staff were super helpful and friendly. Room was clean and comfortable would highly recommend.
Great hotel, great location. Breakfast overpriced and same menu outings each day was disappointing.
Everything was great, I was really happy with the room, the staff, and all services!
The hotel is fine but we ended up in easily the noisiest room I've ever been in. Constant creaking from above which we assumed would stop but continued from 7am onwards and we could not sleep on after a late night. Also thr therm didn't work so room was too warm. When we informed desk at check out we were just told we should have said something earlier
Excellent location right in the centre of Edinburgh. 5 mins from both the train station and Princes Street. Situated on Cockburn Street gave you access to many small shops and restaurants which was really nice. Room was spacious and very clean. Toilet facilities were immaculate. Continental breakfast in the morning was fresh and plentiful set up in the bar area was relaxing and very enjoyable. Staff were friendly and helpful at both reception and restaurant area.All in all would definitely use this hotel again or it’s sister hotel which is located just off Princes street next to the Apple Shop.
One of the beat hotels i stayed in! I loved the aesthetic, the room, the view, the location, the lobby cafe. The staff were super warm and welcoming and answered all my inquiries. The only funny thing i would say is that there was no heater in the room but there was AC.
This is a beautiful old building where I've stayed before- nice rooms, lovely bar/ reception area and friendly staff. Generally this is a nice hotel in a key location in the old part of the city with amazing views and really near the train station. We were given extra tea and milk on request and staff were friendly and helpful. The rooms can be a bit noisy as many of the rooms look out onto the many sets of steps around the city. Our room was also a bit warm and we didn't seem to be able to get the aircon to work. The bar is nice but expensive and they've stopped selling my favourite scottish cider in favour of generic brands which is a shame. It's also become much more expensive than last time I stayed and is more expensive than other Motel One's that I've stayed at before. Booking with a child is annoying though as you can book online but have to then call them to get a bed added for a child. Lots of useful emails and reminders sent but they were all in German and I'm English and travelling from England!
Location is perfect Room was very comfortable but the noise from outside the hotel was terrible. We were is room 322 and we could hear the activity and voices all night
The staff at MotelOne was great - very quick to respond to email queries as well as in person. I think the only thing that was lacking, were some disposable room slippers!
Great location and confort rooms
Good service, lovely staff.
Fabulous hotel, clean comfortable very central. Highly recommend.
Excellent place to stay. The staff are exceptional and everything runs so smoothly. I only marked the hotel down by one point as there was no drawer storage in the room at all. Very comfortable room and lounge area. We will be back 😊.
Staff was extremely helpful and friendly. Hotel was in a great location for the local attractions. Very clean and comfortable
I had one small request, to be allocated to a quiet room or quiet floor because I had an exam to sit early the next morning. My whole night was a disaster with noise from the hallway, the other room next to me and so much from the street as well. Just very inconsiderate.
Room and hotel was clean Staff were great Ceiling on our room had fallen in a bit Lift broke in day 2 No hot breakfast
My stay at your hotel was fantastic. The staff were exceptionally welcoming and the location was extremely convenient. The room was cozy and well-cleaned, the breakfast was very nice. Thank you very much for such a delightful experience!
Excellent location, Helpful staff, Very clean Bar staff great but maybe more snacks available would be nice. Had an amazing time .
A very good hotel with a fabulous location. Comfortable rooms with comfortable rooms. Breakfast is casual but great value. The only negative was that my room was quite a way from the lift. Ok for me but an issue I think for those who are not as mobile with luggage.
Very pleasant stay. The room was well up to expectations. Nice buffet breakfast. Very pleasant and helpful staff.
Great location Would recomend
We have stayed here a number of times over the years and have enjoyed our experience, however this time was not a good experience. The bedroom was unbearably hot with only a small opening of the window which was insufficient to cool the room. We hardly slept due to the heat. The bathroom towels were very hard and well past their softness. Bathroom door catch defective as was the kettle on off switch. We did not complain to the management as we are not complainers, but we were extremely disappointed with our stay this time and will be seriously considering our options for the future.
Lovely hotel, room was very nice and the staff were really friendly! Unfortunately whoever was above us was really noisy and due to the building being old, the floorboards were quite creaky, however the staff were really accommodating when we told them and helped us moved rooms which certainly helped us enjoy the rest of our short stay. Location was perfect too, right in the heart of Edinburgh.
Having stayed in a lot of Motel Ones, the room in this one was quite dark because of the small window. We had paid for a room with a view, which we had, but the small window was disappointing. The reception/ bar area was also small and the bar area drafty due to thexautomatic entrance door opening regularly.
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
Det var koldt på værelset De blødkogte æg var hårdkogte Det tog lidt tid af få fyldt brødkurve og juicekander op
Smuk beliggenhed, meget centralt

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!"
