If you want a central room with the barest of essentials then this is it. No toiletries or phone. Very sparse but it is a very clean and very central room. I wouldn't eat at the restaurant though. The food was dismal, undercooked and some had gone off. Just go find food on the Royal Mile. Great location, I would... More

This is a very typical Travelodge offering good value accommodation in a very central area. The bedrooms are OK, if a bit tired, and the public areas could do with a spruce up. But it has a bar/cafe and there are plenty of eating and drinking options nearby. Thed staff we met were pleasant and helpful, and we would certainly... More

For the price of a hostel you get a private ensuite room. A bit run-down, not really spotless, but good and more than affordable. Excellent location directly off the Royal Mile - could hardly be better. Nice and helpful staff, breakfast fine. Perfect for a night´s stay if you´re not overly fussy and know what to expect from a Travelodge.

Plenty of shops, Bars and restaurants. Rooms are basic but comfortable and clean, hotel could do with updating it is looking a tired and out of date. Staff were... More

My wife and I are going over to Scotland in August/September to celebrate her 60th birthday with family as she is originally from Edinburgh. My daughter who is unfamiliar with Edinburgh booked at Travelodge Edinburgh Central believing that the word "central" would be ideal but later heard from family that the Cameron Toll hotel is just minutes away from where...

Standard travelodge, fine room which was big enough, although stained mattress. Breakfast was average with plenty of everything although fairly limited choice, but for the price definitely can't complain! Very friendly service.

I stayed in this hotel for one night last September. The hotel service and breakfast were okay, just what you would expect of your average Travelodge. The room was adequate but in need of an update (peeling paint, etc) and it was hard to sleep with noisy traffic outside. However, the location was good, very close to the Royal Mile... More

I agree with Goatherder and Yolk! This is a perfectly acceptable Travellodge, offering budget accomodation in a great location. This is the second year that I have stayed for two nights in March. I must say the staff are brilliant! We arrived as a group with the arrangements made for us - allegedly. In about ten minutes the receptionist had... More

Shabby, poorly maintained, rusty bathroom fittings, peeling paint, loose poorly functioning sink tap, dirty (blood??) bathroom wall tiles, filthy carpet. Requested a room move which thankfully was granted. Holiday Inn Express up the road is a better bet.
