Fantastic stay only 2 minutes walk from the royal mile and the train station. Perfect location and spotlessly clean hotel. The staff couldn't have been nicer , everything you need for a comfortable stay and the bar was fantastic aswell. Great value , especially with the military tattoo and the fringe going on highly recommended.

The NYX was renovated a week prior to checking in. Very clean, lively atmosphere with excellent helpful staff. Katryna at the front desk was extremely nice to deal with. Hotel location is central with walking distance to everything. Bedroom although a lil small was comfortable with rainfall shower facilities. Overall a great stay!

Excellent experience overall. The property is well-maintained and conveniently located near all amenities. The breakfast area is impressive, with high-quality food options. Rooms feature very comfortable beds, and the staff provided consistently helpful and friendly service. I would stay in this hotel when next I visit Edinburgh. Thank you to all the beautiful staff.

We visited the hotel on its opening day, so everything was brand new, clean and well-functioning. (One could maybe have hoped for an interior decorator with a different taste in style). The staff was very serviceminded. Absolutely recommendable hotel.

Starting off this hotel has amazing staff. I truly felt so safe and cared for during our stay. Prem and Kate were absolutely the best, they gave us some welcome sweets when we checked in which my brothers really enjoyed and asked if we needed any recommendations. They were so nice and as someone traveling with my two younger siblings it was nice to know we were taken care of. The hotel is beautiful, I was reluctant at first because of all the reviews but this hotel was nothing like the reviews I saw. It was super clean and close to the royal mile and sights while still having a sense of peace and calm. The Waverly train station is about 5 min down the road and the airlink is also right there as well. Super convenient location to arrive from the airport. Amazing stay. Thank you Nyx hotel!

We didn’t end up staying at the nyx as the hotel was still under construction, but we were automatically moved to the Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh, which was a lovely hotel. The hotel staff was very helpful in booking a transfer to the hotel for an early flight out and the hotel was close to many sights in Edinburgh.

I did not in fact stay at Nyx, but the Leonardo next door. Nyx had not yet opened and no one told me or notified me I would in fact be staying at a different hotel. We came earlier, but had we arrived later on I would probably not have accidentally met some of the future staff at Nyx to find out the situation. They didn’t seem to care at all about this and just nonchalantly said sorry. The Leonardo however was lovely and I really recommend! Friendly and helpful staff, clean, safe and modern.

Hotel isn't open as it is still under construction, money was taken, got to the hotel late on Friday night to find that the hotel was closed. Had no hotel and no refund. It has been extremely upsetting and hassle to try and get a refund.

We were booked for the NYX having stayed in the one at London Holborn and loving it.,We were disappointed to learn the NYX in Edinburgh was not open and we would be accommodated in the Leonardo Royal next door. The hotel was ok but not what we were expecting having booked a new modern hotel. The rooms were extremely warm with one of our rooms aircon not working resulting in poor sleep. We were advised drinks vouchers would be provided however there was no sign of these. While the staff were very pleasant sadly our stay was a disappointing experience compared to what we had booked and expected.
