This hotel is on a bus route straight into city and was definitely a great value for money option. It has a new owner who is working hard to make it a great destination. He was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good too - small buffet but fresh and tasty. I’d definitely stay again.

The Abbey Residence experience

I very much enjoyed my stay at the Abbey Residence. The highlight of it all is of course the people. Hosts insisted on doing anything in their power to make your stay exceptional. All the advice on how to plan the stay and sightseeing in Edinburgh or in other areas made the experience much more easier and relaxed and very comfortable. It's not like it's ideal place on Earth, it's close to one of the main streets in the area so if you're sensitive to noise just remember your earplugs. I very much hope to be back sooner than later. Thanks for the lovely time!

Friendly staff and good location with free parking

If you are looking for somewhere to stay on a budget just out of central Edinburgh this property is in a good location with buses every 15-20 mins to edinburgh. It typically took us 45 mins door to door to anywhere we were going in the centre and parking was free which was really helpful. I wanted to make a special shout out to the host that we dealt with throughout our stay, I’m so sorry but I don’t believe we exchanged names, but I know that he is originally from India. He was very respectful and friendly and told us interesting stories about his journey. He also let me use the bathroom at 8pm before driving back home - a small thing but greatly appreciated thank you!

For what i have paid should sleep lite a quern but unfortunaly doesnot meet any how shows on website bed dirty and more absolutily dissapointed
Tranquillo, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

So-

The room was good. Clean and comfortable BUT it was very noisy late at night and early in the morning with people walking about on VERY noisy floorboards in the room above ours. Couldn't get to sleep for ages and then was woken at the crack of dawn. NOT GOOD!! The hotel manager was super helpful and very courteous, nothing was too much trouble. The building itself could do with improvements making as first impressions aren't good 😕.
