Leith hotels

Short bus ride from city centre (or long walk which we did once) Apartments very well furnished and well stocked with everything you could possibly need - including tea bags ! Would definately stay there again and no hesitation in recomending them

Firstly, Malmaison Leith is a great hotel. I've stayed in a couple of Malmaison hotels and I guess they're really targeting label-disciples who do things to impress. The decor is dark and mysterious and the lighting is intentionally low - think "branch of Abercrombie and Fitch". Even the slogans on the toiletries are intended to be "down with the kids", although it appears more to be the efforts of someone with a Disney tie and pony-tail who's is trying too hard... Anyway, the hotel comes highly recommended, but mostly because of the location. The Shore area of Leith is superb if you want to be away from the touristy bustle of the city. And if you're a foodie, it's unmissable! Fantastic restaurants, nice bars, great real ale pubs. If you're in Edinburgh on business and just want a quiet place for a bite to eat and a few drinks all within a few hundred yards, Malmaison Leith is a great place to base yourself.

Great location, convenient bus service to centre of Edinburgh. Leave the car at the hotel and travel easily by bus. Best way to see Edinburgh. Clean, spacious flat with great views over the Firth of Forth and if you are lucky, Britannia over at Ocean terminal. We've been several times now and it's been great every time. Great base even if you want to cross over to Fife across the Forth Road Bridge.

Two nights' stay. Quiet enough for a good sleep. Will come again next time.

The owners remind me somebody in the movies. Possibly Wallace and Grommet (well the men ARE baldish) but more like the one about the double-barrelled shotgun. They are sweet. Rooms too. And cheap.

staff at this guest house are excellent , rooms are well decorated and clean , breakfast is excellent on par with London hotels we've stayed at .

Hotel is good friendly helpfully staff free parking a great bonus the room was a good size huge comfy bed and a huge bath with loads of hot water cleanliness was good breakfast excellent, all though we ate out the menu in hotel looked good. Nice bar area and outside seating, overall great value and we would defiantly use again, good walk into town but achievable and pleasant. Leith shore line easy walk.

We were extremely disappointed. All began with impolite phone manner, then we were asked to pay before we checked in but they made a mistake with our booking. We were in a building next to the hotel not in it. Only two towels given, not even a hand towel. Television same size as a kindle. You can hear outside. No room for anything to sit. No keyring on key.no space for us at breakfast. Staff didn't speak English. should not be called a hotel. Never again.

Fantastic place, nothing at all to complain about. It was great to have room to move around in after hotels and also a washer and dryer. It is very hard getting washing done while travelling. There is a bus to take you into city just up the road which we used, also a huge supermarket close by which sell everything you could need and cheap
