(from 3,350 reviews)

Good match for:

  • Culture Enthusiasts: A 5-min walk to Edinburgh Castle and under 10 min to the National Museum for history buffs.
  • Wellness Travelers: Free access to indoor pool, sauna, and gym to unwind solo.
  • Business Travelers: 24-hour business centre and free Wi-Fi support remote work and meetings.

Things to keep in mind:

  • Budget Backpackers: Mid-range rates around USD 166 may exceed tight budgets.
  • Boutique Hotel Seekers: Chain-style design lacks the unique character of boutique properties.

Good location within walking distance of Royal Mile. When we got to our room sheets were not clean. Very low rainfall shower, at 1.88 I had to crouch. On several occations water from shower would overflow to the next room. Bathroom and toilet doors and walls are "oneway" mirrors, so if you leave the lights in the room off, you can see straight through them. Restaurant menu excites noone, hotel re...

We stayed there at the end of September. Our first time in Edinburgh and it was fantastic. The hotel was a walking distance to the castle, museums and restaurants. The hotel staff were welcoming, friendly and very professional. Yesica and Magda were awesome at the bar and at breakfast. Kudos to them and the rest of the awesome staff of the Novotel Edinburgh Center!

Hotel is well located around 10-15 min from the royal mile. The family room felt quite small and it felt quite warm. Air con was not working at this time of year and even with windows open it was too warm. Breakfast was nice with plenty of options and space and staff was friendly. The pool was nice and not too crowded when we were there.

Great location for exploring Edinburgh. Close to all major attractions. The breakfast buffet had plenty of choices. Restaurant staff was attentive. We ate dinner one night in the hotel. Inviting atmosphere in the bar and restaurant and great choices on the dinner menu, Check in/out was easy My room was definitely spacious with great bathroom.

Nothing too bad, probably just needs a refresh. Showers were amazing, and the bed was super comfortable. Staff were all really friendly and helpful. It's about a 5/10 min walk to Victoria Street, so about 10/15 to the Roy...
