The air con wasn’t working in our room when we arrived. The front desk person was very helpful and sent a manager to us right away. However the manager said when we asked why would they give us the room if aircon wasn’t working?…”some people don’t mind!” That didn’t make sense and wasn’t a good response. We were given a different room, aircon worked! Breakfast was just okay, but server was nice.

This was the perfect place for us. A bit of a walk to the Royal Mile but worth it. We stayed there twice while in Edinburgh. They stored our luggage while we took a couple days to visit Isle of Skye and checking us back in when we arrive back was easy. I will definitely stay there again the next time I’m in Edinburgh

Boutique hotel or so called. It means the rooms look a bit different. High ceilings and a spacious room and bathroom. Obvious damage and repair work to ceiling. Bed was a King but was really two mattresses pushed together so the middle of the bed had an uncomfortable rib running around both mattresses.

Only requested room service one time on my 4 night stay and they replaced every towel accept the most important towel the bath towel. They took two away and put back one. Upon request for additional towel (2 person occupancy) I was told \"No, because I had the \"Do not service\" door tag on display. However this was the following day, not the day of service.

A visit to reception was required where upon they repeated the same odd reason why only one towel was replaced if two were taken. But alas, I got my towel. (However this should not have been the case the answer to customer paying premium for a 3 star room is \"Yes, we will bring a towel to your room as soon as possible.\".

Shower has great water pressure, and the quality of said towels was very good.

In house breakfast was average at best. Many Cafes within walking distance much better and less expensive.

The area where the hotel is is excellent and walkable. Tram stop 400 ft away takes you to the shore or the airport. VERY convenient. Great location.

Overall a good hotel. But no surprise that improvements should be made considering this establishments price point.

3.5 out of 5 stars

Reception staff like Chelsea and Vincent barely had most basic hospitality ethos
They were not welcoming, and had an attitude
Breakfast staff did a slightly better job but at times were not comparative
My room was very noisy right above reception and all night was hearing delivery staff and people walking on street
Entrance to Hotel has no ramp and taxis can’t stop right opposite
We had to be dropped at next side road and walk 150m with bags and had to carry our bags up the stairs
Hotels interior was beautiful but staff def need proper training
I ain’t stay there again

Great location in Edinburgh centre. Staff were super nice and helpful. Building a bit quirky with cool decor and lots of twisty corridors. We liked breakfast - not the most extensive continental but what there was was excellent plus we had booked breakfast in advance so got eggs Benedict anyway (with eggs poached perfectly). Only mark off is for the room - very cute but very small so it was difficult to navigate around the bed and the TV at the end of the bed acted like a room partitian. But you will have had worse bigger rooms in city centre hotels. Bed was comfy and the bathroom was done up nice so it was still a good experience.

Needing a hotel room in the early hours of the morning following a family emergency, I was very fortunate that my random choice led me to Indigo on York Place.

Not expecting to be spending the night away from home, I arrived with only mouthwash, a toothbrush, and a can of deodorant that I had bought from a 24 hour corner shop, and no spare clothes so I was pleased to change straight into the slippers and towelling robe provided. I also hadn't eaten for quite some time so the complimentary shortbread and decaf tea were greatly appreciated.

The bed is was really comfortable. My own preference is for a heavier duvet but I was shattered and quickly fell asleep. I didn't even notice the linens - always a good sign - but remember being pleased with the pillows.

The shower was refreshing and easy to use, the provided toiletries smelt good and did what I needed, the breakfast was delicious, and the staff were both welcoming and efficient.

Tiny tweaks that would improve the continental breakfast bar relate to the toaster: the bread for toasting is larger than the toaster slots preventing even browning, both slots share a cancel button, and there was ketchup and brown sauce between the toaster/bread and the spreads/preserves which was too confusing for that time of day.

Being lactose intolerant, I was pleased to see dairy-free milks and spreads. There is no good dairy-free cheese substitute in the world, but a lactose free Greek \"yoghurt\" could be added.

My new favourite hotel.

Staff were pleasant. We either missed or didn't know elevators were not available for all rooms. Made it very difficult for my wife to climb stairs. The staff offered to help with luggage, but that wasn't going to resolve everything.

Air conditioning didn't work from the first day, they brought a portable heater which meant going from hot to cold.

The TV had to be reset, but still didn't work the best.

The safe malfunctioned which required trying to get staff to open it as we were trying to leave to catch our train

We loved all of the staff at the hotel. They were so nice and helpful and kind to us. We enjoyed the bar - it was well stocked and had a nice variety of liquors. Breakfast was also great. The location was great - near a major tram stop. The only negative was the squeaky doors that were so loud we could hear it up and down the hall when someone was coming and going that it would wake us up at night and early morning.

Room was okay but starting to look tired. Staff at reception was slow and didn't connect at all with us. Couldn't find our reservation and just left us standing there for minutes without telling us what they were doing, asked to see my confirmation three times at which point I started to lose patience. We ended up in the disabled room without any explanation. Room was okay. Breakfast buffet was okay, cooked breakfast average. Porridge flavourless, poached eggs were dry. All of it was okay. Checkout was a disgrace. I checked out in the IHG app, handed the guy the roomkeys and mentioned that and the only thing he did was asking for our room number. Nothing like how was your stay, would love to see you back, what are your plans for the day. Just average, the whole thing. Shame really.

This hotel is very well placed for the Edinburgh Playhouse & other tourist attractions.
Staff are really friendly and helpful. Hotel is a lovely old building but so warm & cosy. Our room was at the back & was nice and quiet. Complimentary tea, coffee, soft drinks and water plus biscuits, tray replenished each day. Fridge in the room for the water and soft drinks.
Bed extremely comfy and bathrobes and slippers were provided.
Lovely smelling toiletries and a very powerful rain shower, didn't want to get out.
So much choice at breakfast all prepared with the best ingredients.
The hotel doesn't have a carpark but you do get a 40% discount when using the one behind the hotel.
Man on the reception, sorry can't remember his name recommended any Italian restaurant nearby. The food was so good that we ate there both nights.
I would highly recommend this hotel & will definitely stay here when we visit Edinburgh again.

The staff and amenities were exceptional I joined email to keep intouch. The local was excellent. The staff again was so helpful and the hotel itself was clean comfortable . The food service was also excellent. Either breakfast was worth the convenience and price.

I will definitely book here again.

Room 214 had loud mechanical/whirring noises coming out or aircon vent all night. Very patchy sleep. Recordings taken & being submitted with formal complaint. Staff need to acknowledge there's an issue & fix it. Not good enough for hefty price being charged.

Room was a good size. Well appointed and great facilities. The only downside was a bit of damp damage on the window wall. Did not affect our stay at all but was a bit unsightly. Breakfast was very good.

Room was clean and the lobby and dining area were nice. We were on the top floor, 4th and they had slanted ceilings that were cracking other than that it was good. Just the slopping ceilings made the room smaller. Overall it was a good stay. Close enough to everything without as expensive of prices.

The breakfasts were very good and the staff was courteous. The room was very cold through the entire stay and the portable heater that was brought in stopped working the last night

Clean , well presented hotel in a great location for visits to The Edinburgh Playhouse and the St James Quarter Shopping Centre. Fabulous breakfast and friendly, polite staff. Lovely touches in our room (premium king) included a fridge containing soft drinks, bottles of water and biscuits. My husband even received a birthday card and a whisky minature to mark his 60th birthday. Just lovely! We would definitely return.

Front desk staff were very helpful and kind. Only flaw was the property manager that came to look at our tv (that didn’t work properly also it says it has Netflix on it however it does not) he was quite rude, dismissive and short with us when I asked about the tv. Breakfast staff were very kind and helpful there was lots of options for everyone. I wouldn’t hesitant to return to this hotel however the manager we dealt with could use an attitude adjustment

We had a lovely stay, the bed was very comfy and the contents of the fridge were free and replaced daily (including Irn Bru and caramel wafers).

The location is excellent, walking distance from all the main sites and right by a shopping centre.

Our one complaint is the tv wasn't a smart tv so if you need to catch up on the latest episode of the traitors, you're in trouble!

The location of the hotel was ideal for us with everything we did within walking distance.The tram stop down the road handy for visiting the Royal yacht and back and for to the airport. Plenty of places to eat,and drink around too.
We thoroughly enjoyed breakfast at the hotel and had something different every day. All staff were always pleasant and helpful. My husband asked on reception if it was possible to have another hole put in his belt, reception contacted the maintenance man and he did it, no problem. We had quite a laugh with him about it. After checking out we were able to leave our luggage at the hotel and enjoy another day out before our flight home. On returning to collect our luggage we sat and waited for an hour or so before leaving and enjoyed a cup of tea which was very welcome. Staff were brilliant and so friendly.
The room was great, some nice little touches like earplugs and the fridge topped up daily. I would say the bedding wasn't as soft as I would've liked but thats a minor issue.
We did find the air freshener as soon as we walked into the hotel quite overpowering but again a minor issue.
Overall we enjoyed our stay at the hotel and would be more than happy to stay again. We would definitely recommend it. 🌟

We booked Hotel Indigo lass than an hour from check in, Andrew and the rest of the staff were scoping and accommodating, they turned our Edinburgh experience around so fast. Rooms were very comfortable and cozy, great location for our needs. Can not say enough good things about this establishment.

Reception was friendly and helpful. Room was lovely, warm and spacious. Even though on street level with tram passing was so quiet. Great nights sleep. Breakfast was of very good quality and lovely gentleman serving. So helpful. Hotel is in an amazing position if going to the playhouse for a concert. Tram stop literally 40 paces from hotel. Variety of restaurants within few minutes walk. Secure parking 3 mins away. Can’t wait to revisit and stay here.

Parking was a couple of blocks away and cost us $75 for two days. They said we were getting a discount but I think that's a ridiculous price. Wasn't really walkable to old town so we had to take a cab. Nice hotel but I don't think I would stay here again.
