Had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The service was outstanding, especially during breakfast. Elinor and Ramseyer truly made the experience memorable—they’re absolute gems! Their warm, attentive service added a personal touch that set each morning off to a great start. I’d highly recommend getting the breakfast just to experience their exceptional hospitality.

My husband and I had a great time at The Courtyard Edinburgh. The staff was informative and helpful. We found that the location made it pretty easy to go around Edinburgh as it's quite central. It's also close to a major parking lot and we were able to get a discount courtesy of the hotel, which was helpful! Rooms were clean and spacious enough for us as we were out of the room most of the day. Would definitely stay here again!

We stayed here for 2 nights coming up from England. It was easy to find with parking underneath nearby. The hotel itself is in a great location for exploring Edinburgh, and it is stylishly decorated. …

Despite the hotel claim, room was not particularly spacious and my City view was of the delivery yard out back. Lots of trucks, delivery vans and workmen in and out of the yard all day. …

The Edinburgh courtyard was conveniently located - close to the train from the airport. Nice rooms. No frills on the service - I think that's standard on courtyard brand. Good breakfast but did not come with the room. …

Reception staff were awful. Tried 2 cards and blamed me for not having enough funds out loud with a queue behind me. Then.... realised their machine was faulty. Forgot to book me in for breakfast. For the price I paid for the room I expected better service. Hotel and room was immaculate but reception staff need more training.

Great location, good breakfast, really small rooms, and poor service. Room was hot and we asked for air conditioning to be turned on. They took 2.5 hours to come to the room and fix it.
