Great hotel and has an amazing bar over looking city. The hair dryer and straightener in room! So amazing !!! The bed is very very cozy! Sate place ! Coffee shop next door and the restaurant to the left is very good and great drinks! Everything is great except: beds are SMALL (full at best. Here is the main negative... the stairs!!! Anytime you go to the main areas at all to eat or tour it is a LONG LONG staircase up every time! Seriously it is a deal breaker! Inwould stay in a hotel up higher much higher. We are in shape but geez these are the most stairs ever! BE WARNED the stairs are a lot!!!!! Brings my review done from 5 star to 3 star LOCATION!

The accommodations are lovely. First and foremost is the staff. We were greeted with attentiveness, friendliness, and champagne! The location is very central, near Waverly Train Station which separates Old Town from New Town. We took a train to Pitlochry for a couple of days, and the hotel was even kind enough to hold our luggage for us while we were gone. This may well be our new favorite place to stay in Edinburgh in the future. Highly recommend it.

I absolutely loved my stay at the Market Street Hotel! The staff were very friendly and incredibly helpful. When I left something very important back at the room, they did everything they could and figured a way to get it back to me before I headed back home to the states. Phenomenal experience and perfect location. I highly recommend Market Street Hotel for your next stay in Edinburgh.

This was the perfect location if you want to be in the center of it all! it was very walkable to dining and shopping and to popular landmarks. The staff was very friendly and changed our room after we realized that their standard king isn’t actually a king by USA standards. So since I went with my sister they moved us to a very large room with two Twin comfortable beds. I also enjoyed the little perks like complementary snacks, beverages (even alcohol) and coffee and tea. Overall I would recommend 10/10 if you’re staying in Edinburgh!

Location is ideal, close to everything. Breakfast is very good with a daily cup of champagne, with an amazing view on the city. Room is very comfortable with free mini-bar refiles everyday. First time I see a Dyson hair dryer and ghd in a hotel! You are welcomed with a class if champagne, and you can also enjoy another one on the terrasse once per stay. Lovely stay!
