We stayed 8 nights for a \"locals\" visit to our old haunts in Edinburgh and to meet up with friends. Did do some touristy things but mostly soaked in the beauty and vibes of a great northern city. The hotel was very central, convenient for rail travel, and surprisingly quiet.

Check in is on 7th floor. Only one entery. No place to stop to unload car, no luggage cart or staff at entery for directions.
Overall 5 stars. An exuberant good morning from housekeeping team members in hall way is a great start to the day. Hotel pre booked ride to airport and he was waiting 15 mins early! Was last stop on 3 country 14 night trip. Felt well taken care of.

Edinburgh is a city that if your visited it once , you'll be coming back many times. And this hotel catches the spirit of Edinburgh completely.
Location can't possibly be better. We walked everywhere, the best food is there, the best attractions are steps away.
Because we stayed there two times, one before Glosgow and the second after, we sampled two different rooms and were very happy with both.
The views from the windows were stunning. The beds were very comfortable.
These people really understand the meanning of hospitality.
The breakfast room is a work of art. Super cozy with increadible views, comfy armchairs and super delicious food . Their service is the next demention.
When we walked out of Waverly Station and saw our hotel, we felt so home!!!
There are million little things that made our stay so wonderful. Sweets, full free minibar, quiet pleasant music...
Although everyone in this hotel was increadibly wonderful and this is our greatest thank you to them all, we have to say very very special thank you to the most wonderful ladies in the breakfast room
And huge thank you to David. Professionalismat the highest level!
In today's world when hotels demand that you do everything yourself, having an old world ambiance and care is extremely valuable.
Thank you!!! Can't wait to see you all again!

Loved this hotel! Very convenient to everything in Edinburgh. If you’re coming from Waverley station, it’s directly across the street with no stairs.

We were promptly greeted with champagne and our room had everything we needed. I think if you upgrade your room, you also get upgraded amenities like a Dyson hairdryer per our friends. The bar upstairs has a great view and a lovely list of drinks.

The bed was super soft and by far our favorite of the trip. We had no complaints about this hotel! It was everything we needed to end our 2 week Scotland trip.

Here’s a polished review that keeps your positive experience front and center while offering constructive feedback.

I included your criticism in a way that’s fair and credible, which tends to resonate well with readers.

Highly Recommended – Fantastic Location in the Heart of Edinburgh

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at 6 Market Street and would happily recommend it to anyone visiting Edinburgh.

The location is hard to beat—directly opposite Waverley Station and right in the heart of the city. Edinburgh Castle, the Royal Mile, Princes Street, excellent restaurants, and many of the city’s major attractions are all within easy walking distance.

Our first room wasn’t ideal, but the team handled the situation exceptionally well and promptly moved us to a much quieter room without any fuss. The room was spotlessly clean, and the bed was one of the most comfortable we’ve slept in during our travels.

A unique bonus was the complimentary in-room minibar, which is replenished daily with drinks and snacks—a thoughtful touch that we really appreciated.

The staff were always friendly, professional, and eager to help. My only suggestion for improvement would be to ensure the front-of-house team has a deeper knowledge of Edinburgh’s attractions, restaurants, and local amenities. In a city with so much history and character, knowledgeable hotel staff can add enormous value to a guest’s experience.

Overall, an excellent hotel in a superb location, and we would stay again.

The location is wonderful, with easy walks to many of the sights. I really wanted to love this place, but at $550/night for the lowest grade room, my expectations weren't met. Check-in on the 7th floor was easy & my room was ready on arrival at 2:30. I found a glass at the sink, with toothpaste residue at the bottom, leaving the cleanliness of the other dishes, suspect. My cozy room had limited natural light. The bed was comfortable. Complimentary drinks & snacks were appreciated, except for the decaf coffee which came in a packet that had to be steeped for 4 minutes & which left so many grounds, it was undrinkable. I was able to buy pods at a local Tesco. Neither washcloth nor paper/pen were provided. Kettle, Nespresso, milk frother, hair dryer & small clothes steamer are provided.

The Nespresso machine leaked, & after 2 mornings of cleaning up that mess, I requested & received a replacement. It, too, leaked; the machines may need servicing/descaling. The rainfall shower put out more water than the drain could handle, leading to flooding; I reported this & after a day, it was serviced. The Laura Thomas & Co. toiletries have a very strong scent; glad I brought my own. There are no towel bars, only a couple of hooks. The hotel wants to be green, but there was no place to hang towels to hygienically dry them for reuse. The sink & mirror are in the entry vestibule, outside the bathroom. The lighting is very dim there.

Staff was very helpful.

If you are a boutique hotel person, you will love this place! It is directly across the street from the Waverly Train station so no cab/Uber needed. You walk in the door and are directed to the 7th floor (us by the ever helpful Andre-Thank-you!) to check in and are greeted with champagne on your arrival by the super nice and helpful staff. This also allows you to see where the optional included breakfast will be (with all wonderful servers, but a special thank-you to Jakub for his extra time and attention!) and the afternoon/evening small plates and bar are located. There is a nice terrace overlooking the city for evening drinks with a beautiful view (open to the public so you may need reservations on really nice evenings). We stayed in a single handicap room, which could use a mirror near an outlet for hair styling but was otherwise good. We also stayed 4 nights in the larger suite room, which had everything we needed. There are complementary beverages and snacks in the room and nice shower products. The hotel is in easy walking distance to both the old and new town areas and the Princess Street Park. We really enjoyed our stay here and actually cancelled our airport hotel to stay here again before we left. Thank-you to all of you, we really enjoyed our stay-and we are still rooting for Scotland in the cup!!!!!

We recently stayed at the Market Street Hotel and had a mixed experience. The staff throughout the hotel were consistently friendly, welcoming, and helpful, which was very much appreciated. The facilities themselves are lovely, and the hotel has a beautiful overall atmosphere and location.

Unfortunately, the housekeeping and maintenance standards did not match the quality the hotel presents. The shower contained visible black mold, which was disappointing in an otherwise upscale property.

In addition, a sharp metal piece of trim had fallen off in the bathroom. Each day it was stood back up by housekeeping, but maintenance was never contacted to properly reattach or repair it, despite it being an obvious safety concern.

While the room was tidied daily, the garbage bins were often not emptied.

Overall, the hotel has great potential because of its excellent staff and beautiful property, but greater attention to cleanliness and maintenance details is needed to fully meet expectations.

There was not enough information provided to the customer at check in regarding the amenities of the room. Also, one of the attendants at the champagne/breakfast bar was a little rude concerning eating breakfast there. I did not make a reservation there for breakfast the next day because I did not know you had too! If anyone had told me that I needed to make a reservation I would have done so. Maybe someone should talk to the short (maybe French) guy who works there about giving more information about reservations before chastising customers about not making a reservation! Overall, good service and good breakfast selections.

The hotel has an excellent location, just minutes from Waverley Station, which was very convenient as we arrived via train. At the end of our stay, we walked 5 minutes to the Airlink 100 bus stop on Waverley Bridge, so it was close to airport transportation as well. We were minutes from the Royal Mile and close to New Town too. The hot breakfast offerings were great and the breakfast buffet was well stocked with a good variety of fruit, cereal, yogurt, baked goods, meats and cheeses. I especially enjoyed the included champagne at breakfast. We also enjoyed the in-room snacks with Scottish brands, which were also included. The Artist Vista room was small but adequate and had creative space solutions, such as the sliding wood panel that functioned as a curtain. I highly recommend this hotel and would stay here again!

The room was clean, and the bed was reasonably comfortable. They use a memory foam-style mattress topper, so as a side sleeper who moves around a lot, it took a while for it to adjust and reshape. Aside from that, the bed was firm but acceptable.

The room itself was clean, but the view between the hotel rooms really needs attention—especially since there are two windows facing it. Unfortunately, it looked more like a back alley filled with garbage than a pleasant view.
