"Very good hotel in an ideal location."

This is the second time we have stayed at the Premier Inn at Lauriston Place, and it still suits us very well. It is a 20 minute walk with luggage from Waverley station and although there is a nearer branch, we like this one for its location. It is close enough to everything that the city centre has to offer, yet is in a quiet area. It is also just up from Grassmarket, which is one of our favourite areas. Service throughout was friendly and efficient and the breakfast, although not the full buffet selection we are used to, was good enough. The dining restrictions are due to Covid rules and these extend to shutting the seating areas as well as the restaurant so, for now, the hotel has a rather somber air about it. But everywhere else is in the same boat - and we accept it. Our room was clean and spacious and the only downside was that there was no drawer space for clothes. Other than that, we spent a comfortable and pleasant three nights here and would certainly use this hotel again on future visits.

"Very peaceful stay"

We booked this hotel as our daughter is in student accommodation in Haymarket. We wanted somewhere that was not too far from her, but not too far from Princess Street either. This hotel was perfect. Located on a not too busy road. We has room 207 which was not facing on to the road at all and was very quiet. I thought the room was very clean, some wear and tear on some of the furniture but not a problem at all.

"Max has the best customer service!"

Nice clean room, affordable rates, great location. What is super amazing is the excellent customer service we received throughout our stay from Max. He went out of his way to answer our questions and meet all our needs. Sometimes a knowledgeable and helpful person makes all the difference in how a trip goes. Thank you for an excellent experience, Max!

"Lovely Staff!!"

Lovely hotel, very clean with polite helpful staff. I would like to espeically say thank you to Calum as he was very helpful particularly as the parking at NCP Castle Terrace car park was quite confusing but he explained it very clearly to me, very friendly and welcoming young man!

"100% customer service"

I went there for a weekend with my girlfriend and from the moment we have entered there to the very last moment we left, the service has been immaculate. This has left a deep impression to us as we’ve never been to Edinburgh as were from London. A big shout out to Machi (sorry if spelt wrong) for making us feel at home we appreciate it.

Hotel description Premier Inn Hotel Edinburgh Central (Lauriston Place) is the perfect place to stay if you're coming to visit Edinburgh or Edinburgh Castle. You'll be within easy reach of all the tourist attractions, plus great transport links to the whole region. Spend the morning doing some window-shopping along the Royal Mile. For lunch, why not venture out to Leith, Edinburgh's 'port', and discover some glorious restaurants. If you're visiting during the Edinburgh Festival or the International Film Festival, there's plenty to distract during the afternoon. Then it's time to come back to the hotel for a meal in our tasty restaurant, and a well-earned rest in our new, modern rooms with extra-comfy kingsize Hypnos beds.
