Thistle Hotel

The hotel is in a wonderful, quiet, clean and friendly location. It was an easy walk from central Edinburgh. The room was changed to a lower floor with access to a large bath , to allow for increased comfort and accessibility whilst I managed a broken leg and back. The suit was clean and the bed was comfortable. The window let in a wonderful amount of light and the flag billowing on the balcony made my stay all-the-more cheerful !!! The staff were extremely friendly and helpful.

From the moment we stepped into this hotel, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome - Andrew you are a STAR! Their warmth and hospitality set the tone for a wonderful stay. The building itself is over 300 years old, which adds a unique and charming vibe to the experience. You can feel the history in every corner, and it truly enhances the ambiance. The location is excellent, making it easy to explore the surrounding area. As for the room, it was nothing short of fabulous. Spacious, well-appointed, and with a perfect blend of modern amenities and historic charm. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a memorable and enjoyable stay!

The hotel is lovely, very cute old fashioned but super clean. The room is big and the beds are very comfortable, also the shower very hot. Staff was very kind and location is great, walkable 30min to bus station and close to other bus stops. There was nice breakfast for $9, I didn't opt because I didn't know before, so brought my stuff and there was tea/coffee appliances in the room.

The staff were so friendly, especially Andrew who worked the morning shift. He was so helpful, suggesting different things to do and see in Edinburgh. Breakfast was a continental buffet breakfast but so filling and replenished regularly. The room was stunning, huge ceilings and antique, beautiful furniture. We loved our stay here.

Room was very nice sized for the 4 of us. Pullout couch was more comfortable than I thought it would be. Great location with a lot of restaurants nearby.
