One Of The Best Hotels We Have Stayed At

A lovely hotel with excellent staff who were super attentive. The facilities are first class and we particularly appreciated the complimentary mini bar in the room and glass of champagne with breakfast. The view from the bar and restaurant on the 7th floor has a real wow factor and the location couldn't have been more convenient - the Royal mile and the main shopping areas are both just short walk away. We will definitely revisit.

Market Street Hotel = Fantastic

What a fantastic weekend was had in Edinburgh and at the Market Street Hotel. The location was great, the staff were great, it was clean, with great amenities and nice and quiet. I would thoroughly recommend Edinburgh and especially this hotel, they do Christmas very well.
