I stayed here for 5 nights and I got to say that Yotel Edinburgh has it all. The room is beautiful, stylish, and very modern. The location is perfect , everything was walking distance. The breakfast was delicious and the cleaning staff did an amazing job. The greeting staff was also very kind, I had a staff member switch my room because my original room did not have good connection and it was by the staff room. The switch was quick and precise , with no additional fee. You can also check in early for just 20£. I would definitely come back.
