Allan, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It's mad to stay anywhere else!

The Inn in the Mile is the perfect location, next to a taxi hub, and located at the half point on the Mile. Very clean, the food was great, all was comfortable, and our every need was met by friendly and professional staff. Highly recommend the breakfast package to start your day with no fuss and delicious a la carte menu to order from. Stephen was especially kind and accommodating, and made our stay an absolute pleasure, along with the rest of the staff. If I visit Edinburgh again, and I will as it is a beautiful city, I will absolutely stay here again! Superb!

Great place to walk around and see the sights. We were heading to the whisky experience and it was an easy walk on the mile. Great cafes and pubs everywhere you look. Very busy with pedestrians so don’t drive of you don’t have to.

Real nice hotel, bar, and restaurant. Even though there isn’t an elevator the staff is very helpful in getting your luggage up the stairs. A very pleasant stay.

Great hotel, in a great location. I actually booked at The Inn on the Mile but was changed to this hotel for some reason. I have no complaints though, it is a beautiful property.
Brant, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great boutique hotel that is within a 10-minute walk from the bus station and located on the Royal Mile. Centrally located to all of the sites. Our room was spacious and loved the large bathroom. Great breakfast selection and staff were very friendly. Highly recommend this hotel yet you need to be able to do stairs as there are no elevators at this location.

Inn on the mile

This is a unique hotel in a fabulous location. However it is three rooms to a floor and has nine floors but NO elevator!!! We were assigned a room on the 9th floor! However the bar staff assisted us with all our luggage.
Lyn, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great Inn and location.

Great location and extremely accessible to the whole area. Coupled with the hop-on Hop-off system was great to explore. The Inn was very helpful with relocating to the first floor above the restaurant after the first night. A knee replacement was prohibitive above that. Staff was great! And, breakfast was the best. Akso, best lattes in town.

Great location, friendly staff

Lovely staff. Hotel is in a great location. Breakfast was delicious. We stayed in room 8 which is on the top floor. The room was small but well equipped. The bed was very comfortable.
Tasty breakfast - started to eat before taking the photo :)
