I stayed at the Adelphi Hotel on a recent trip to Edinburgh. It's definitely a budget-friendly option, which was perfect for me. The room itself was clean and functional. The bed was comfy, there was a flat-screen TV to unwind with, and the shower had great pressure with plenty of hot water. Heads up, there's no breakfast offered at the hotel. I grabbed food at a nearby cafe each morning, which wasn't a problem, but be sure to factor that extra cost into your budget. The room was a little on the small side, and I heard some noise from outside at times. It's not a fancy hotel, and there aren't any amenities beyond free Wi-Fi. The location, however, was fantastic. It's just a short walk from the tram stop, and most of Edinburgh's attractions were within a 10-15 minute drive. There's even free parking on-site, which is a major plus in the city. Overall, the Adelphi Hotel was a decent choice for my short stay. It's perfect if you're on a budget and don't mind a basic room without frills. Just be prepared to find breakfast elsewhere and manage your expectations.

I already had an idea of this hotel before booking so I was not that negatively surprised. I just wanted to pay as less as possible that is why I went for this hotel. We arrived before check in time so we left our bags in a deposit room. The same key that opens the main door opens your own room...I hope that still the other guests cannot open all rooms, but it was creepy. There was a woman at the ” reception” who was nice enough and gave us the main information after that we have not seen anyone else anymore. The room is very old fashion styled. Not only is has and old charme but it is also old and it looks like is has been renovated on a budget from the owner on his spare time as it seems from the carpet and from the bathroom. The worst thing is that the room was very dark and far too small. The bed was all in all not unconfortable. The window looked at a backyard with tonnes of garbage bags. Positive thins: there were tea and coffee facilities in the room, the location is very good you can reach for example the bus station on foot and there are plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. The location was quite, but....on our second of 3 nights our upstairs guests started turning on some speaker out loud at 12 in the night which lasted until 3 in the morning. We informed the reception the day after who said they have no 24 7 reception so they could not stop the noise during the night. However we did not have the same problem the night after. The shower was good.

The house is situated about 40 minutes walk from Princes Street. There are plenty of buses(£2) to catch and the bus stop is just opposite. We had one of the smaller rooms in the house - the room size was fine but not well laid out. There was only about 2 inches to get round the double bed to get to the other side, the sash window was very heavy and impossible to open. There was a very small couch - supposed to be a 2 seater, but really only sat 1 person. The other person then had to sit on the bed but couldn’t really see the TV and the TV was fixed. Our biggest gripe was that our room was billed with an en suite bathroom … but it was in fact down the passage way. Having not realised I would need a dressing gown this was problematic. Also there was at least one occasion when somebody else had used it. We knew before going that there was no breakfast provided so took Belvita breakfast biscuits and Scot’s porridge oats satchels that you just add water to. This worked well. Normal tea and coffee satchels are provided but not decaf or herbal teas. There is a small fridge downstairs which you can put a few bits in. The main house was decorated well and clean. We loved Edinburgh and did so many different things - a walking tour, afternoon tea at the Balmoral, a Highlands tour, Holyrood House, the castle, a whisky and gin experience, walk up Arthur’s Seat…. and one of our favourites- HMY Britannia at Leith - you can catch the team there.

To start, the athstices of this hotel are beautiful, not only did the human poo add a beautiful display to the bed sheets but the smell had a beautiful aroma that made me feel like I was back at home. The people in this area are fantastic, a good example of this is the man at leith links who offered me (a hit) on his pipe (I did not ask what was in it), another great example of the kindness is the leith academy pupil who offered to give me a “bat” because “it sounds like your asking for it ya fenien” I was unsure weather he meant a pet bat or a bat to hit balls with like in rugby, so I kindly rejected his offer. Back to the hotel, the hotel assistant who offered to “give me hands” was very nice, I asked if he knew what a “chav” was and he gave me the offer, he never got back to me with the information I was looking for. On my way out back to the airport a young adult asked me if he could borrow my phone sp he could phone his mum, as soon as I pulled it out to give it to him and he snatched it and ran away, I hope his mum is ok.

The building is beautiful and it's far enough out of the centre to be quiet but close enough to walk in. When I arrived there was no one there to check in, so I had to call someone, that won't be great for people traveling from abroad who might not have access to their phones. Room was beautiful, light are airy, if not a little small

The trick for this small boutique type hotel is to be prepared 1) to take the stairs (no elevator), 2) no front desk and 3) you won't see any hotel staff under normal circumstances. Check out is also a bit tricky, you leave your key in a cell of a lock box that opens with the proper code. Pay close attention to emails the day of your arrival from the hotel, otherwise you won't be able to enter the building.

We stayed over the weekend for a little get-a-way. First the bad. The beds are hard- could use a mattress topper. And the king is two beds pushed together so a bit of a crevice. Again, a mattress topper would help. There was a bit of an odor when we arrived in our room. But it dissipated. The breakfast is mediocre. Not horrible, not great. There is a hot tap and cold tap in bathroom which makes washing your face a pain. Having said that. The good. The location is excellent. Quick bus into the Royal Mile or a short walk. The bus stop is right across the street. The room was clean and well equipped. The hostess was lovely. I would stay again for the price point and quick access to the main attractions.

The staff was very nice, polite and helpful. Our room was very clean and comfortable. Every day they cleaned and refilled the water and replaced the coffee, sugar and tea.
