Top Tollcross Hotel Reviews

Moxy Edinburgh Airport

8/10 Good

"Very convenient location for our early morning flight, only a short walk to terminal building 😊"

Apex Grassmarket Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Location location location. This is the best location for old town. You get lovely views of the castle each day and night when you book those rooms. I loved my stay here. Breakfast each morning was the BEST! The staff were very helpful and incredible as well. Loved my stay here. Only downside is the heating in the room is not individually controlled and can run very hot if you aren’t used to sleeping warm. But that is absolutely nothing to worry about because everything else here makes that unimportant."

Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection

10/10 Excellent

"The Mountain Royal Hotel has an amazing location and was the home base of our travels in the lowlands. Breakfast was very good for a buffet/continental style offering. The only criticism I have would be the ridiculous showers. There was literally no way to shower with our soaking the entire bathroom. Very strange design decision."
