Ideally set in the Edinburgh City Centre district of Edinburgh, The Resident Edinburgh is situated 1 km from Edinburgh International Conference Centre, 1.6 km from Royal Mile and 1.5 km from Camera Obscura and World of Illusions. With free WiFi, this 4-star hotel offers a shared lounge and room service. The property is 700 metres from Edinburgh Castle, and within less than 1 km of the city centre. Perfect stay! The location is excellent, very close to interesting tourist attractions and a bus stop, which made it super convenient to get around. The room was outstanding — clean, complete, and extremely comfortable. The hotel staff were all very polite, welcoming, and always ready to help. Another great highlight is that the hotel has partnerships with local restaurants, offering nice discounts for guests. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would definitely come back!

BrewDog DogHouse Edinburgh features free bikes, terrace, a restaurant and bar in Edinburgh. This 4-star hotel offers room service, a 24-hour front desk and free WiFi. The property is 600 metres from Edinburgh Waverley station, and within 700 metres of the city centre. Room 108 (Velvet Cake) I absolutely loved my stay at BrewDog DogHouse Edinburgh! It’s unlike any other hotel I’ve ever stayed at. From the moment I arrived, I could tell this was going to be a different experience. The hotel has so many unique touches that make it stand out, like free pick & mix sweets and the fact that they offer both still and sparkling water for free - such a treat to have sparkling water available! There’s also Grind coffee available in The Atrium, but the coffee machine decides when it wants to work! There’s also plenty of games in The Atrium to keep you entertained. The room itself was packed with cool features. There was a vinyl player, a beer fridge, a guitar, and a mini bar stocked with plenty of snacks and drinks. It felt like a home away from home, but with an awesome BrewDog vibe. The staff were incredibly friendly and always greeted us with a smile, which made us feel very welcome. The biggest highlight, though, was the fact that you’re staying right at a BrewDog, and you can even get room service. The 24/7 hotdogs were surprisingly delicious and definitely had no right being so tasty at that hour! Thank you for also keeping the pins & postcard topped up. As someone who is purposely visiting BrewDog’s to get the BrewDog Visa stamped, I really appreciate it when pins & postcards are topped up. Overall, this hotel offers an experience that’s fun, unique, and packed with great little details. I’ll definitely be staying here again next time I’m in Edinburgh! Highly recommend it!
