This is a relaxing and friendly hotel in the ideal location for exploring all parts of the city.

Jan L. G. M. L. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

The location is excellent in the new town district just a throw away from old town and shopping district. However, the rooms is like a shoebox. 14 sqm probably. It was impossible to open your luggage unless you slide them under your bed and do puzzle solving gymnastics. Even during breakfast when it gets busy the dining area fills suffocating. The service was kind and helpful, we requested some of the furniture to be moved out just so that we can open our luggage. There is a reason why they don't advertise the awkward floor space.

Rebecca L. Friends - Confirmed reviews ALL

Visited overnight for my birthday weekend, as staff were aware of this I was treated to complimentary chocolates and a birthday card and the better room of the group booking. Luggage was stored securely for free before and after check in/out which is exactly what we needed for our trip. The location is excellent for reaching all points of interest and in a lovely spot in St Andrews Square away from the hustle and bustle. All staff we encountered were lovely, nothing was too much trouble. The continental breakfast exceeded expectations and we cannot recommend the cocktails enough. The complimentary toiletries in the rooms smell amazing and can purchased at Reception. Our room was overlooking the square and was modern, bright and roomy, the other room in our booking despite being the same price was much smaller and had no view, this would be my only criticism of our otherwise perfect stay……… I simply pulled the ‘it’s my big birthday weekend’ card and assumed I’d had some king of upgrade, fortunately Edinburgh has so much to offer you don’t spend much time in your room!

Dear Rebecca, Thank you for writing a review. We are delighted that you chose to spend your birthday weekend with us and that our team could help make it feel special with a few extra touches. Knowing you felt warmly welcomed and well looked after means a lot to us. We are equally pleased that you made the most of our breakfast, cocktails, and the Arran toiletries. That said, we are sorry that the other room in your group felt less impressive in terms of size and outlook. Our historic building was once a bank, which was converted into a hotel in 2014, meaning rooms within the same category can vary in shape and dimensions. Nonetheless, we are thrilled that your own room overlooking St Andrew Square felt modern, bright, and spacious. The view across the square is something we never tire of, and it is wonderful that you were able to enjoy it. Finally, we love that our location gave you easy access to everything Edinburgh has to offer while still providing a peaceful base away from the crowds.

Katrina H. Friends - Confirmed reviews ALL

I stayed in 5 different hotels during my recent visit to the UK, and the Ibis Styles Edinburgh on St Andrews Square was definitely one of the best. First, the location couldn't have been better. It was only steps away from many interesting New Town historical sites, our food tour's meeting spot, and the tram to the airport. Our room was comfortable and surprisingly spacious in comparison to most European hotels. We loved the breakfast buffet that was included in the price of the room. It offered a large variety of delicious breakfast items, including several options for vegan diets. But what really stands out is the unique and attractive way that the lobby and rooms are decorated. We looked forward to returning to the lobby for a drink at the end of each busy day of sightseeing. I highly recommend staying at this hotel!

Dear Katrina, It was a pleasure to receive this great review. It is wonderful to receive such kind feedback from a recent guest, and we are delighted to have made your list of top hotels during your holiday in the UK. We are thrilled that our central location made your Edinburgh visit so special, with many sights and easy access to tours and public transport on the doorstep. It is equally lovely to hear that our team made a favourable impression and that you looked forward to unwinding in the lobby each evening. We are also pleased you found your room comfortable and spacious, and that our breakfast buffet impressed you with its variety, including the vegan options.

Very happy with our short stay at Ibis Styles St. Andrews Sq. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Excellent breakfast which sets you up for the day. Our room was slightly small but comfortable, good bed and tea, coffee facilities. The bathroom was generous with very good shower and supplied with quality toiletries.

Dear Douglas, Thank you for reviewing your visit. We are delighted that you found our staff so helpful throughout your stay. Our team takes great pride in making every guest feel welcome, and we are pleased that you also enjoyed our hearty continental breakfast.

Nick S. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

We liked the small but well-designed and comfortable room. The breakfast offered an excellent variety of choice. The staff were friendly and helpful. The internet connection seemed insecure however. The position of the hotel was ideal: very central, within walking distance of the station, places of interest and good restaurants

Dear Nick, We appreciate you sharing your comments with us. We are delighted that you appreciated the design and comfort in your room. It is also great to hear you enjoyed the hearty Continental breakfast, with its wide selection of croissants, porridge, muesli, and endless tea and coffee. That said, we are sorry our internet connection fell short. We offer complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi, and our team is always on hand to assist with any connectivity concerns. Nonetheless, our central location clearly made your stay easier. We are glad you appreciated being within walking distance of Waverley Station, Edinburgh’s finest attractions, and some excellent restaurants.

Stephanie C. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

Our twin bedroom was very comfortable and clean. We also loved the shower with its high-end fixtures. The breakfast buffet was excellent and catered for a wide range of dietary preferences. Also very convenient location.

Dear Stephanie, Thank you for writing a review. We are delighted that you found your twin bedroom so comfortable and spotlessly clean. It is also great to know that the high-end shower fixtures added a touch of luxury to your stay. However, we are sorry the internet speed did not meet your expectations. Our complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi is available throughout the hotel, and our front desk team is always happy to help troubleshoot any connectivity issues during your visit. Nonetheless, we are thrilled that our breakfast buffet hit the mark for you and that you appreciated our sustainability efforts and central location.
