Abbey Hotel Edinburgh

Location is handy, near the theatres and walking distance to the train station. Avoid the basement rooms, which are gloomy and noisy. Upstairs rooms are much nicer and larger. Breakfast service was quick and quite good.

a very nice hotel, although very basic.

All staff were very friendly and helpful.

Very friendly and helpful staff. I really enjoyed my stay

A pleasant change from the hotel chains - friendly, attentive and you are really made to feel like a guest. A brisk walk up a hill to find it, but a hidden gem. Highly recommended!

Very friendly and helpful staff. Easy walk into city centre. Quiet hotel.

Excellent breakfast, lots of choice, staff were very helpful and friendly. Hotel is old, but very cosy. Very good location, parking if fine too.

Great location with very efficient and friendly staff. The only downside was the room I was upgraded to which was in the basement. The window was open when I checked in and smelt a bit musty due to the damp on the arches. The smell became very overpowering during the night and I transferred to the single bed at the other end of the room ...so if offered room 2 request another! A real shame as this was the only thing that let it down.

The room was great for the price, the location was close to everything and if we went to Edinburgh again I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again. Breakfast was included and was cooked fresh daily and quite good.

Only on street meter parking available, free at night. Room small if you luggage and Wi Fi is available free.

The new management in this hotel has made a great start. The hotel was clean, nicely appointed and the service was friendly and helpful. I recommend visitors to Edinbough give it a go.

would come back again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Greenside. The managers were extremely helpful and pleasant, the room was huge, breakfast was tasty and generous and the hotel was a short walk to Princes Street. We would stay there again and recommend it.

The managers were very welcoming but they are about to leave to take over their own hotel on the west coast. Less than ten minutes walk from Waverley station makes this an excellent base, with a variety of restaurants close by. I'll probably return.

The room offered through the [website] was right at the top (good views) but for a double room was tiny. (It would even have been small for a single). You couldn't get round the bed as it was against a wall. However, the manager/manageress were very good and sorted a better room for the 2nd night. Breakfast OK

A lovely little B&B, nicely located within a short walk of Edinburgh city centre. Recommended!

I managed to get a single room there for 33 pounds. Reasonable value for money at this price, but not at the advertised rates. The room was small and breakfast average, but the hotel is okay if you can get a good deal. Distance to the centre is its greatest asset.

The Greenside Hotel Edinburgh was is a beautifull setting with trees and open spaces to the front and rear, it is within walking distance of the city but we used the taxi on most occasions, only because we are lazy. The room was clean and confortable, the shower room looked new and sylish. Our room ( no 10) looked over beautifull terranced garden to the rear and uo to Calton Hill. Because Greenside Hotel is situated away from the city there is absolutely no traffic sound at night , in fact we didn't even hear a sound from our fellow guests. The Scottish breakfast was to die for, with constant refills of toast and coffee. Everyone in the hotel was helpful and courteous and in "our" rating for the hotel we will give it a 10 out of 10

The managers of the Greenside, Mark and Jackie, were lovely - very helpful and friendly. The hotel is only a short walk from Princes Street. Would recommend it to friends.

Very friendly and well priced. Breakfast was fabulous!! The stairs were a bit tough for carrying up suitcases - we were on the second floor, and parking was a problem - we almost got a parking ticket! But a car isn't needed as it is a short sstroll to the centre of town and there seemed to be a good network of buses. I would definately stay there again.
