Top Arniston Hotel Reviews

Delta Hotels by Marriott Edinburgh

8/10 Good

"I didn’t realize that the hotel was a great distance outside of Edinburgh. On the other hand, it was much closer to the airport. It had a very nice pool, which was the main reason I chose it."

Village Hotel Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Really clean room, staff very friendly"

Leonardo Hotel Edinburgh Haymarket

8/10 Good

"The hotel is about a 15-20 minute walk to Edinburgh downtown. The staff were friendly and the room was modern and clean. The restaurant is very over priced with disappointing food. I would recommend not to eat there, there are plenty of breakfast/coffee shops and restaurants in the neighborhood that are a better value."

Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location in Edinburgh! And the best helpful staff! Definitely would stay here again!"

Holiday Inn Edinburgh Zoo by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"A Wonderful Four-Night Stay – Excellent Staff and Service We stayed at the Holiday Inn Edinburgh for four nights and had a very enjoyable and comfortable stay. Our room was clean, spacious and had a great view towards the Edinburgh hills. The location was perfect for us. Several bus stops nearby offer frequent services into Edinburgh city centre, and the airport link bus also stops on the main road in front of the hotel. Despite the convenient location and nearby roads, we didn't find the room noisy at all and slept well throughout our stay. We also made good use of the hotel's facilities. The swimming pool was clean and, although not particularly large, was more than enough to keep us active while travelling. We especially appreciated that the pool stayed open until quite late, which suited us very well compared with some other hotels we have visited. The gym was also good. We had a pub meal at the hotel. The food was straightforward, good-quality pub food, but it was very well prepared and enjoyable. Most importantly, the staff throughout the hotel were very friendly and helpful, and the whole atmosphere felt relaxed and welcoming. I would particularly like to praise the hotel team for their help after our stay. Unfortunately, I left my business phone at the hotel, which caused me quite a panic when I realised. A big thank you to the whole team, especially for the excellent help in getting my phone back!"

Moxy Edinburgh Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean room with lots of amenities. Friendly staff and large downstairs seating area with a full bar"

Apex Waterloo Place Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The location was perfect with their being a hop-on, hop-off bus stop directly across the streets, the royal mile within close walking distance, and a major car rental close by as well. Everything was nice overall at the hotel as well and the food/drinks served are of good quality though a bit pricey."

Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"The gym was good. Staff helpful & room was comfortable with nice bedding. Very close to the castle since we were attending the Royal Tattoo & was walking distance."

CODE - The Court, Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was great! They were very hospitable and helpful. They made your stay wonderful. They also may many events having at the CODE. The C.O.D.E is convenient to everything..museums, shopping, Mary Kings Close, the Lost Close and many restaurants and pubs. The location is next to St Giles cathedral on the Royal Mile...I would diffently stay there again."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Arniston?

The best area to stay in Arniston is directly within the village itself, particularly near the harbor and the Arniston House Estate.Arniston village is a small, picturesque fishing community known for its whitewashed, thatched-roof cottages and its historic harbor. The village is compact and easily walkable, with many accommodations offering views of the sea or the charming village streets. The Arniston House Estate, a historic country house, is located just outside the main village and offers a more secluded experience.For couples looking for a quiet, scenic getaway, staying in the heart of Arniston village is ideal. You'll be within easy walking distance of the harbor, the beautiful Arniston Caves, and the sandy beach. The village offers a few local eateries, providing a relaxed and intimate setting for your stay.Families will also find the village a good fit, especially with its proximity to the beach and coastal walks.

When is the best time to go to Arniston?

The sea breezes keep things fresh without being too cold.Couples looking for a relaxing getaway will find these months great for enjoying the scenic beauty and outdoor dining options. The warmer weather allows for leisurely strolls along the Arniston Bay beach and exploring the nearby caves without the chill of other seasons.
