There are at least 3 Ibis hotels in Edinburgh. Two of them are in very close proximity. That made it difficult to remember the exact name used for our hotel vs the other ones. Just something to be aware of. Room is small. Bathroom is even smaller, but nothing that is unexpected. The front desk staff can call for a taxi and there is an Uber kiosk in the lobby. Both are handy. There is a cafe right next door to get a quick croissant and coffee. The hotel is centrally located in the old section of town, close to the train station, shopping and dining.

Louise L. Business - Confirmed reviews ALL

Well located hotel and friendly staff. Unfortunately the floorboards were loose/creaky outside my room and were incredibly loud every time someone walked past (which was often as it was a room near the lifts) and this kept me awake. There was also further intermittent noise (a cistern maybe?) that was loud so I did not sleep well on the two nights I stayed. Could also have done with another plug socket in the room. Otherwise the room itself was fine.

Eva R. V. D. M. Business - Confirmed reviews ALL

First, I was charged the entirety of my stay (5 nights) the night before my arrival at 3am, which led my bank to suspect I was being hacked and they refused the payment and blocked my card. Whilst Ibis is naturally not responsible for my bank being cautious, I had not been informed that this amount would be withdrawn then - given i booked weeks earlier - and perhaps working hours would have been more appropriate for such a big transaction? The staff were very friendly and helpful about it upon arrival though, especially since i could not then pay for my stay with a blocked card but had to wait for it to get unblocked. Second, thr walls are paper thin and shake every time someone else in the corridor closes their door, and the rooms are generally noisy. Worst however was the bed: it had two big dips in it from usage and I slept terribly all week. I have read more negative reviews about the mattresses and suggest you start replacing them with something a little more sturdy. Finally, the sink was almost blocked - water went through very slowly - and the bathroom could have been a little cleaner, given the price of the room. Otherwise, breakfast was not bad and the staff were lovely.

Dear Eva, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your recent stay at ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge - Royal Mile. We sincerely appreciate your insights, as they are essential in helping us improve our services and facilities. It is encouraging to know that you enjoyed our breakfast and found our staff to be friendly and helpful, as we pride ourselves in our excellent customer service and delicious food offerings. It is our standard policy to secure the payment method prior to arrival, and we apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused with your bank. We are, however, pleased to hear that our staff were able to assist you upon your arrival. Regarding your concerns about the noise levels and mattress comfort, we regret to learn that your experience did not meet your expectations. Did you by any chance address any of these issues to our friendly 24/7h reception team? We are always happy to assist with any concerns that may arise. We strive to provide a peaceful environment for all our guests, and your feedback regarding the walls and the mattress has been noted. We regularly assess our facilities, including our mattresses, in order to ensure guest comfort, and your comments will be taken into consideration as we continue to enhance our offerings. We also appreciate your remarks about the bathroom cleanliness and the drainage. Our housekeeping team is dedicated to maintaining high standards, and we will ensure that your observations are shared with them for further review. Thank you once again for your valuable feedback. We hope that you will consider staying with us again in the future, allowing us the opportunity to provide you with a more satisfactory experience.

Siiri T. Solo - Confirmed reviews ALL

I stayed at the hotel for five nights. The room was a good size and comfortable. It was easy to adjust the room temperature using the air conditioning. The only downside was the presence of black spots on the wall below the window and on the bathroom door (possibly mold?). However, there was no unpleasant odor in the room, so I didn’t pay much attention to it. Although the hotel was located in a busy area, the soundproofing was excellent, so noise from outside did not disturb my sleep at all. The hotel is in a great location, within walking distance of good restaurants, shops, and attractions. Bus stops are less than a minute’s walk away. The staff were very friendly and made me feel welcome. The only thing that lowers my rating is the black spots I mentioned, which affect my impression of the room's cleanliness.

Dear Siiri T., Thank you for taking the time to share your experience at ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge - Royal Mile.

Your kind words about their friendliness will certainly be shared with the team, as they strive to ensure every guest feels at home.

Cleanliness is of utmost importance to us, and we are committed to maintaining high standards throughout the hotel. While we are pleased that you did not experience any unpleasant odors, please be assured that your comments will be forwarded to our maintenance team for further investigation. We recognize how such details can impact your overall impression, and we are grateful for your understanding. Thank you once again for your review.

Very courteous reception- able to get in room early and kept luggage in storage on the last day. Room had open wardrobe and some shelves which were fine. Be aware no shelving in bathroom by sink - very cramped area- my daughter said it reminded her of a cruise ship one but they at least use clever storage. Seating in bed area- plastic chair/ bench- quite basic Bed very comfortable though. Quite noisy first night? Nightclub nearby? Breakfast good but beware it finishes at 10 on the dot- noted needed to get coffee by 9:55 or the machines were set to cleaning. I suppose you get what you pay for. It does what it says on the tin and reception very good.

Traci M. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

Staff helpful. Outside the location drug deals and drunk folks. Scary at times. No security

Dear Traci, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your recent stay with us. I am pleased to hear that you found our lively location convenient and our staff helpful. However, we are deeply concerned to learn about your experience outside the property. Please know that the safety of our guests is a priority, and we often have security on during busy times to ensure a comfortable experience for our guests. Our reception is open 24/7 if you ever have any concerns during your visit, we are more than happy to help. We hope to welcome you back in the future. Kind Regards, Louise ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge - Royal Mile
