    Best Hotel I’ve Stayed In

     

    I don’t think I’ve ever written a review for a hotel before but I have to for this one as it was the most positive experience I’ve ever had in a hotel!  I have to say how exceptional the staff at this hotel are- from the weeks leading up to the trip, to the days leading up and then the whole 4 days of the trip, the staff could not do enough for us all. I have no doubt they’d have arranged almost anything for us!
    An all round wonderful experience in the Resident Edinburgh and in Edinburgh and I am definitely returning to both Edinburgh and to this hotel!

    Highly Recommend

     

    Very beautiful newly opened Hotel in a perfect location. The check-in was easy and uncomplicated. The staff was very friendly. Super clean room with a stunning city view. From the hotel you could walk everywhere by foot. Caffès and restaurants are super close. In some spots, you get a discount on the menu due to the stay in the accommodation.

    A fabulous stay at The Resident Edinburgh

    A thoroughly enjoyable stay at the Resident Edinburgh. All the team were welcoming and super helpful. The location couldn’t be better. The atmosphere in the hotel was relaxed and friendly. Our room was just right, with a great view of the castle. Housekeeping kept it smart and well stocked. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay at The Resident again.
