In a location that is quiet but within walking distance of Haymarket and the City Centre. The hotel is clean & comfortable and the staff are friendly and helpful. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. Really enjoyed the Scottish breakfast and loved the character of the building. Would definitely stay there again More

A lovely bar area downstairs with a fine selection of whiskies and ales was an added bonus! The bedroom was spacious and clean and the shower hot. The continental breakfast the next day was adequate. Greg on reception was... More

I spent six nights at the Thistle hotel and was upgraded to a double room on my arrival, which was a pleasant surprise after a particularly long journey. The room was clean, comfortable, stylish and spacious, and the hotel itself is very homely and pleasant; the downstairs lounge bar was always a warm and welcoming place with a mix of... More
