I was on holiday in Edinburgh for the first time. My trip was for eight days and I was staying at Hotel Indigo (York Place) for most of my trip. The hotel staff was very polite, professional and helpful. The hotel was very clean and was located in an are with access to many local restaurants. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Great hotel in a great central location
Hotel Indigo is a 10 minute walk from Waverley Station. The staff were very accomodating. The hotel has a cosy bar, serving good local whisky. The beakfast was very good. The hotel is situated in a perfect location for the theatre and shops. The Connan Doyle pub is 50 yards away and serves good food and cask ales.

Room was tired and needed some maintenance, simple things, wobbly coffee table, loose toilet seat etc. room was otherwise very nice. All the staff were polite and very helpful. Breakfast was good, plenty of choice. They do not provide evening meals but plenty of choice locally. The only downside is a rumbling noise from passing trams which was slightly annoying. Otherwise, we enjoyed a lovely stay.

Please check your noise level in every room
Most noisy room I’ve ever stayed at. They definitely need to check the noise level in every room. Terrible sound kept coming from the air conditioner even when I turned it off, and even though the window was shut, the noise from various machines outside on the roof came coming in, causing me to hardly fall asleep.

Great little hotel
Lovely hotel with really friendly staff. Every member of staff we came into contact with was really welcoming and helpful. This hotel is a 2 minute walk from Picardy tram stop and a short walk to Princes Street and the Royal Mile. Also very close to the theatre and Edinburgh Street Food. So perfectly situated for us. The good sized room was clean, the bed super comfy and had the most fabulous shower. Would definitely recommend this hotel and will be back.

This ”hotel” has no restaurant which makes it less of a hotel and more of an overpriced BnB. If you are going to charge >£200/night then those very basic amenities need to be included. The staff was friendly and the room was clean (if a bit disorganized) but I can’t rate it higher than 2/5.

Nice hotel in great location. Lovely room facing the road so do expect some noise from the trams and cars but didn’t bother us and earplugs are provided complimentary. We had issue with our tv but thus was promptly rectified. Staff were all lovely and friendly and breakfast was very good. Would definitely return to this hotel.
