Excellent hotel

This was our first stay at The Resident but have visited Edinburgh many times. We really thought the property and room provided everything for our stay. For the size of room a lot of attention to maximising the space and inclusion of mini kitchen, mini dresser table, seat by the door for taking shoes off and the window seat etc without it feeling cluttered. The Resident location is close enough to Princes Street and the main bars/ restaurants of Queen St but in a quiet area. Very convenient. We love visiting Stockbridge and it was only 15 mins from the hotel. The daily free drink between 5-6pm is a really nice touch which we enjoyed on one evening and the staff member was very professional and many other guests were enjoying the gesture and evening.

This is one of the best hotels I've stayed in the UK (and I've been staying at quite a few 5 star hotels). The staff was professional, friendly, and accomodating. They def pay attention to details and ensure we have the best experience. Even provided me some of the best local recs and I was quite impressed (and this is coming from a foodie like me)

We had an excellent stay at The Resident in Edinburgh. The staff were absolutely fantastic! Friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Our room was spotless and had a fresh, clean scent, which we really appreciated. We even had a lovely view of Edinburgh Castle right from our window! The hotel is located in New Town, which gave us a peaceful retreat away from the heavier tourist crowds but still within easy walking distance to everything. Highly recommend and would absolutely stay again!
