Perfect location, and closer to the next all the nice well-known buildings, shops, bars and places to eat and bus/train/transport, if you are also thinking of traveling a little out of town. The people who work there are incredibly nice and helpful. Good food and drinks. Clean beds - very nice and pleasant place. Big enough locker for a carry-on suitcase, perfect size. Many bathrooms, so always available to shower and go to the toilet if your first bathroom is full. If it's your first time or you're afraid of hostels, this is the perfect place to go, nice people who also stay overnight, kind workers and cool events, very safe, easy place and easy good help.

The place was entirely remote with only cleaning staff on-site. Despite so, there was immediate customer service when needed via WhatsApp or UK phone call. The beds were clean and rooms were kept well.

No11 Boutique Hotel & Brasserie

Hotel in Edinburgh

Due to historic nature of building there is no lift and all rooms are unique Some rooms are on the lower ground floor with restricted views and our double rooms can feel small to those used to chain...

Stunning boutique hotel, great location - just a couple of minutes walk from the tram station. The staff were so friendly and welcoming and went above and beyond to help us celebrate a special trip away, even brought us complimentary fizz. The room was so gorgeous, full of character and the decor was luxurious.

The flat was spacious, very clean, super quiet, yet very central. The location close to Haymarket was ideal for public tranport including all busses and tram to the airport. The bathroom and the kitchen looked like recently refurbished.

Great location, beautiful decor, and all very clean. Fab to have parking. Bus link to Edinburgh centre so handy, big shopping centre across the road. Paid for early access, which was ideal for us. Lots of storage if needed, sofa bed easy to use.

The room was beautiful, spotless and the view of the castle was amazing! We loved the location, it was ideal and everything was on our doorstep. I would absolutely love to return one day and the communication with the staff was brilliant. They left some lovely little surprises for our mum as it was her birthday and even wrote a lovely little card! We loved our stay in Edinburgh! Thank you to the Righ Team!

Extremely convenient for the John McIntyre conference centre, and very close to a bus stop with regular buses into town. Breakfast delicious, and delivered promptly by the very friendly Richard. Comfortable bed, nice hot shower, quiet location. Fantastic to have the option of a single room (with the associated very reasonable price) given that I was travelling alone - much cheaper than any other option, including the 'budget' hotels.
