Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Ardmillan Hotel is conveniently located for access to Edinburgh City, with bus stops right outside and Haymarket station a 15-minute walk away, making it easy to reach the historic centre. Guests appreciate the clean and tidy rooms, which come equipped with coffee making facilities, smart TVs, and even safes, and some have found the rooms to be large and spacious. While some guests have noted noise from other rooms or the street, many enjoy the hotel's proximity to restaurants, pubs, and a Lidl supermarket, as well as its location being perfect for gigs at Murrayfield. The hotel offers nice touches like thistle wallpaper and tartan curtains and provides a continental breakfast, including hot croissants and toast.

useful recommendationsfrayed carpetnoisy bar
The staff made room for my bike and gave useful recommendations on local places.
The bar downstairs WAS noisy. Other guests and outside traffic added to the noise. My room had frayed carpet, which really annoyed me. NO food service at the hotel was available. I HAD to find someplace to order in or visit the local shops.
