Hotel Brooks
Nestled in the beautiful Victorian district of Edinburgh, this charming hotel is just over a 10-minute walk from the city centre and the main entertainment areas. Its guests will be a short 15-minute stroll away from the old town, the Royal Mile and the famous castle, and there are convenient links to the public transport in the immediate vicinity. The small, friendly and independent hotel hides a modern interior behind its Victorian façade. The designer furniture, modern bathrooms with Parisien Metro tiles and Hansgrohe power showers are just part of the comforts which make it the perfect place for relaxing. Those who need to escape from the noise of the city can enjoy a beautiful courtyard garden, while the modern lounge is a great place where to sip a chilled drink at the end of the day. For its perfect start guests can savour the cooked-to-order daily full Scottish breakfast.

Perfect location for all of our activities, the comfort of the bed was poor to say the least, needs to be changed and I'm not a light sleeper! Bathroom definitely needs attention as some parts were obviously repaired but not to a good standard and other parts of the bedroom just need upgrading, enjoyed our visit to the Tattoo and Edinburgh so our holiday was still enjoyable.

Hotel was perfect for our three night stay in Edinburgh apart from.the very uncomfortable beds and breakfast was quite poor - room was great size though and newly decorated - staff in the hotel were very helpful. Would stay there again if new mattresses were provided!

On arriving we were told parking wasnt free and as we hadnt booked parking we had to go to a multi storey car park elsewhere at a discount. Which was disappointing. Accommodationwas fine clean. Location was ok too.You get what you pay for budget hotel.
