We recently stayed at Novotel Edinburgh for our first wedding anniversary, and it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel so special, going above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. The room was spacious, modern, and impeccably clean, with a stunning view of the city. The hotel even surprised us with a lovely anniversary treat, which was such a thoughtful touch. The breakfast buffet was excellent, offering a wide variety of fresh and delicious options. The location was ideal—close to all the main attractions, yet peaceful enough for a relaxing stay. We also enjoyed the hotel’s facilities, especially the pool and bar area, which added to the overall luxury of our trip. We couldn’t have asked for a better way to celebrate our anniversary. Thank you, Novotel Edinburgh, for making our special occasion truly memorable. We’ll definitely be back!

Excellent room, superb location and fantastic cleanliness. One of the better Novotels we have visited. The room was spacious, the bed was great and the little gym was great.

Check-in was fast and pleasant. The room looked newly refurbished, always a nice thing when travelling in a popular destination like Edinburgh. The location is excellent, within walking distance to the Castle and other places of interest. Many cafes, pubs, restaurants around. Also close to secondhand bookshops and other interesting shops.
