Everything from the moment we walked in before checking in to the moment we walked out a few days later when we left was absolutely excellent. It's a gem of a hotel right in the centre, great amenities within seconds, yet so quiet while in the room it's just lovely after a day out.

The Resident Edinburgh is top notch! They’re located in a quieter neighborhood, but still close to everything. Their staff is outstanding, from check in to check out they went above and beyond. The room was very comfortable, nice bed and a big bathroom.
