Good match for:

  • History Buffs: Step outside to the Royal Mile and reach Edinburgh Castle, St Giles’ Cathedral, and historic closes within minutes.
  • Business Travelers: Access a fully equipped business center, secretarial services, and 24-hour front desk in a central location.

Things to keep in mind:

  • Wellness Seekers: No on-site pool or spa; consider booking a day spa off-site for swimming or treatments.
  • Budget Travelers: Rooms start at around $264 nightly; not ideal for tight budgets.

Perfect location in Edinburgh. Lovely spacious and comfortable rooms. Expensive, but it is central Edinburgh. The lounge and bar wasn't good, kind of feels like a train station waiting area. Bright lights, premier Inn style seats, no music... etc. Terrible food from the lounge. Reception staff lovely and helpful

This is the best spot to stay in Edinburgh. I’ve stayed on 3 separate occasions in the last 10 years. Admittedly, it’s a slightly different experience with the renovations, but the staff and service remain exceptional. Location-wise it can’t be beat. Edinburgh is a city of many hills and steps. The Hilton is in a more middle ground spot, close to everything, so at the end of the day when you’ve cl...

I stayed at the Hilton Edinburgh Carlton and had an excellent experience. The hotel is perfectly located right on the Royal Mile, making it easy to explore the city’s main attractions on foot. Check-in was smooth and efficient, and the staff were welcoming and professional throughout my stay. My room was clean, comfortable, and well-appointed, with a lovely view and all the amenities I needed. B...

We stayed for four nights in a hotel housed within a 600+ year old building, and while renovations are understandably necessary, we never once heard any construction noise. It was incredibly quiet—we didn’t hear our neighbors or even hallway traffic. The room itself was beautiful: luxurious, comfortable, and very well-appointed. Yes, there’s some street noise, but that’s to be expected in a livel...

Excellent hotel; the only reason I put four stars is because the ongoing renovations do detract from the experience a bit. I have stayed here in the past and would again in the future. The freshly renovated room was fantastic and is air conditioned; something not all hotels have here. The breakfast is first rate. The elevators get jammed up during busy periods, but when the third elevators becom...
