Stunning interiors, fantastic staff, walkable to the city or 2 minutes walk to the tram/train stations. Overall at a glance everything was fantastic, however I do feel the hotel itself is very much style over substance. On arrival there was no hot water in our room, this was ‘fixed’ promptly however due to the old building the water never stayed hot. There was a large wet patch which kept forming into the carpet in the dressing area (no idea where this came from since there was no visible leak) and the bathroom stank of mildew/mould. As well as this the lighting was incredibly dim, the lights flickered constantly and the natural light was lacking due to tiny windows.

Room was superb, bed nice and cosy and facilities were to a high standard. Would have liked more 'wardrobe' space but other than that it was excellent. All the staff from the reception, bar and housekeeping were super friendly and helpful

Room was very tired, had mold in the bathroom, chips in the shower tile, stains on the carpet in the room, general dust as if it hadn’t been cleaned in a while. Also there were several fruit flies for some reason, and both the bathroom and shower door didn’t close fully. Was overly disappointed given the brand and cost of the room.

I was a solo traveler visiting Edinburgh for the first time- I had originally booked a hotel on Victoria street but switched to the Horton for a more price convienent option. I’m very happy I did- I was only about a 10 minute walk from Victoria street and it was nice to not wake up right in the middle of all the tourists. I called the hotel ahead of time and explained I was a solo traveler so requested not to put me on a ground floor. They were very accommodating putting me on a second floor in a very quiet location. the staff were friendly, and accomodating, the food was great, the hotel was clean and well kept. I just booked my second stay at the Hoxton Edinburgh and I can’t wait to return :)

My flight from Dublin to Edinburgh was cancelled due to weather, so I was not able to stay at the Hoxton. I prepaid $691.78 for a three night stay there. I let the Hoxton know before check-in time on the first day that I would not be coming. While I would have been wise to have trip insurance for my whole trip, I still find it unreasonable that the Hoxton would not refund ANY of my money.

Brilliant stay in a great city. One of the reasons we chose this hotel is that it’s dog friendly, and they were amazing with him. The staff on the front desk (sorry we didn’t get names!) were lovely and gave him lots of fuss, and a bed, bowls and treats were all waiting for us. The room was really great and a level up from other chain hotels. 10/10.

Loved this hotel. The breakfast was amazing and the overall vibe was hip and cozy. We stayed down the street from the main hotel in the hotel's other property and didn't feel it was safe and secure with the main door that didn't close fully. I also heard other guests complain about the main door not being safe
