Joseph Bevan
You can never go wrong with a Premier Inn! Really enjoyed our stay here for a short get-away with our friends to Edinburgh for the Christmas Market. Rooms excellent as always with friendly, helpful staff. We didn't have food in the hotel restaurant, there's obviously lots of options nearby. Uber Eats / Just Eat have lots of delivery options to the hotel too. Slightly 'out of it' in terms of loc...

I had a really great stay at Premier Inn Edinburgh City Centre (Lauriston Place) and would happily come back again. From the moment I arrived, the staff were incredibly friendly — the kind of people who smile, chat a bit, and actually seem to enjoy helping you out. It gave the whole hotel a really warm vibe. The location couldn’t be better. You’re right in the centre of Edinburgh, so it’s super e...

There was no refrigerator in the room, so we had no place to...

Over all I was happy for the price and would reco...

It is what it is with a premier inn, rooms are all the same our room was fine and served its purpose the bathroom did have a constant damp smell to it but we overlooked that as we kept the door closed and it was fine. If you get room 122 you back onto where the hotel next door have there bins and they don’t like to keep quiet in the mornings you’ll be woken to loud smashing and banging The bigges...
