    Breakfast for a couple - 42 GBP !!!! Too much. Rooms don't have windows (at least in our case)

    Location is awesome. Right next to the station and all the popular places are nearby. Complimentary Minibar. That's unusual these days.

    Beautiful City Views from a Modern Hotel

    The room was a touch small, and, were we staying more than 2 nights, we would have started to feel that. Even taking the location into account, it's not a cheap stay.

    Tucked in an excellent location next to Waverly Station, Market Street Hotel offers modern lodging with spectacular views of Calton Hill and the Scott Monumnet, in easy reach of the Royal Mile. Extremely comfortable beds (great pillows), well-appointed, and comfortable, our room was lovely. The shower had excellent water pressure.

    Loved it all

    Absolutely everything! From the glass of champagne on arrival to the gorgeous room with amazing view. The free mini bar and most comfortable beds. Everything was thought of, and we were so comfortable. Love the location and the champagne bar, too. Staff were incredible.

    A bit hard to find the reception, had to take elevator to top floor.

    Very friendly and helpful staff. Modern and clean rooms. Nice breakfast with glass of champagne included, a bit pricey though, but worth trying at least one day. Reservation needed.

    Nothing not to like but they could include breakfast within the room price. No reason not to.

    The Location is amazing, literally opposite Edinburgh waverly station. Beautiful room with fantastic amenities, a very helpful space for changing and keeping the luggage, wonderful bed and a functional TV. Loved everything about the room in this hotel. Even their rooftop space was fantastic with splendid views and the coffee machine/capsules in the room were a bonus too.

    The only small negative was the cooked breakfast...unfortunately the sausage and bacon were overcooked. I have to say this was the only minor disappointment.

    All staff were pleasant and very helpful. The room was spotless and had all that we required. A great experience!

    The view was negligible. The room was on the 2nd floor (3rd floor for Americans) but the view could only be seen by looking up. There was also some garbage that had been thrown down in the area of the view. Also, many of the offered TV channels were not in fact available.

    The room was sleek and clean. The bed was very comfortable, the mini-bar was free (!!), the rain shower was fantastic. The room also contained a refrigerator, coffee maker, hot water maker, and a few sweets. The tech was also very good (casting to tv, wifi) and a very cute Roberts radio with bluetooth.

    Nice modern hotel, perfect location for a train traveller.

    The room was generally great, not that big but given that the location smack in the centre it was fine. Bigger than a budget hotel. The only gripe was that the bathroom had underfloor heating which was set far too hot and there was no way of turning it off. We normally love underfloor heating but it was too much, and we somewhat ridiculously needed the aircon on in the room to counteract it. We informed reception but there didn't seem to be anything they could do about it, no settings they could alter either. Fix that one thing, and all good.

    Fabulous location for those (like us) travelling by train. I think 25m from the entrance to Waverley station? And unlike other cities, the station is in the nice historic part. Walk out the door of the hotel and head straight up to the stairs (there are lots in Edinburgh!) to the Royal Mile and castle above you. Really great.

    the complmentary snake and drink in the room is also a good experience of Scotland culture. That is very sweet. People are su nice. I would recommmend friends to stay at this hotel while in Edinburgh or other hotel in the Carlton group.

    Nothing

    We travelled by train, and when we came out of the station, the hotel was standing right in front of us. Such a convenient place! When we checked in, we were offered a glass of champagne at the reception! After a long journey, this was so welcoming. The room was spacious, comfortable and stylish. We chose this hotel because of the convenient location for the train station, but there is certainly more than that.

    Great location, and a reception that offers glorious views on Edinburgh. The rooms are well decorated and large with « zen » style. Bed a really comfortable for the category. Feels more like a business 5 star than a plain 4 star. The personal was really kind as well
