My new go to place in Edinburgh
Our stay at Virgin Hotel Edinburgh far exceeded expectations. The staff truly made it a five-star experience. It was our first time staying at a Virgin property, and I had some concerns that, like many luxury hotel chains, it might feel generic or cookie-cutter—but I was pleasantly surprised. The decor was fun, tasteful, and had a youthful vibe that set it apart. Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted, assisted with our luggage, and offered a glass of champagne. Thanks to our Hotels.com membership, we received a generous room upgrade. The room was spacious, incredibly comfortable, and featured stunning views of the Old Town. Also, very accommodating and dog friendly. Overall, it was a 10/10 experience. Not only would I stay here again, but I would actively seek out Virgin Hotels at other destinations. A big thank you to the Virgin Hotel Edinburgh team for making our stay so memorable!

Expensive room was not as described
We booked a very expensive room with a terrace and what was supposed to be city view. We were not told however that the terraces were adjoining to 3 others and offered zero privacy nor was there a view unless we wanted to view the side of a building with scaffolding.

Fantastic Hotel in Edinburgh
We loved our stay at the Virgin Hotel in Edinburgh. The staff was very friendly and super helpful with recommendations. It was a pleasant change coming from London. Our room was comfortable and enough had space for our two night stay. I liked the way the bathroom was arranged and it wasn’t awkward that you walked through it to get to the bedroom. The location is absolutely perfect for seeing the sights of Old Edinburgh. Everything is walkable. We even walked from the train station although if we knew it was all uphill we may not have attempted it because it is exhausting pulling a suitcase. Unfortunately our visit was short so we didn’t utilize the restaurant or bar on site but the bar looked fun and there were other areas that were perfect for hanging out. There is also a surprising decent gym which I didn’t expect. Can’t recommend this hotel enough. I’m a lifetime titanium member at Marriott but this made me want to check out other Virgin hotels and we’ll definitely return to this hotel next trip to Edinburgh.

Happy camper!
Fabulous hotel in a great location. Our room had a dressing room with separate rooms for toilet and shower and the most closet space I have ever seen in a hotel room! Wonderful breakfast that is worth the additional cost as it keeps you off the busy streets of the Royal Mile until later in the morning and includes a buffet and or menu items. Highly recommend.
