Top Scottish Mining Museum Hotel Reviews

Best Western Kings Manor Hotel

8/10 Good

"Shower tray was blocked , staff were helpful lovely location"

Point A Edinburgh Haymarket

10/10 Excellent

"It was a brand of hotel I'm not used to, but the place was fantastic. Rooms were small, but cozy. Staff was excellent. For an additional 15 pounds I was able to check into my room at noon, which was great since my flight arrived in the morning. Easy walk to the Tram or Airport Bus. Would definitely stay here again. Wish the room had a kettle or microwave. That's the only thing I thought was lacking."

Premier Inn Edinburgh A1 - Newcraighall

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and nice. Close to public transportation."

The Abbey Residence

10/10 Excellent

"This small very unique hotel was a very unexpected surprise … don’t know why I didn’t know it existed Owners very pleasant professional Still cannot believe / understand why they charge so little - should be a ‘minimum’ of £20 more Definitely recommend and visit if in the area or just visiting Edinburgh"

Ravelston House

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were brilliant and very helpful with everything we asked for. However, whilst in the bar there was a long wait to be served and guests were having to locate the bar assistant from other parts of the hotel. It may be advantageous to instruct a staff member to be present permamntly, especially when busy. On the Saturday it was busy and the restaurant ran out of eight basic foods items' resulting in two options available. This was at 7.30pm. Please note we did very much enjoy our stay, but these things would refrain us from recommending you to our friends. Thank you for a relaxing stay."

Melville Castle

10/10 Excellent

"What a beautiful place to stay, my Partner and I were visiting Edinburgh for the Military Tattoo and to take in some of the Fringe. Our room was beautiful and the staff very helpful. A little bit of paradise"

Harvieston Hall Estate Rooms

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms was spotless, its a very old building but modern and decorated beautifully, the bathroom was so clean and the shower was nice and powerful. The man was really friendly and the building its self is just amazing, all 5 of us (3 kids ) were impressed. The beds are the comfiest weve ever slept on. 100% would recommend this place . The view is beautiful, the atmosphere is friendly theres fields with cows surrounding it and friendly chickens running around. Nice stay if u love the peace, the shop is walking distance too."

Premier Inn Edinburgh A1 - Musselburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and convenient. A little strange that I had to give my license plate number as they have a private park ing ticketing company given parking tickets out. I guess it's a way to make money off guest if they forget to punch in. Stayed in Hotels all over the world, but never seen this tourist trap before."
