We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Indigo in Edinburgh. It is in a quiet and nice area and very central. It was great that we could store our bags before check in and after check out so we could explore without them. We felt very welcome and our room was lovely. Would definitely stay here again.

The stay was great, the staff fantastic, especially the lady on reception. The room was great however it lacks cleanliness in some areas, eg: the extractor fan in the shower was clogged with dust .The headboard on the bed was very dusty too as were the pictures, minor issues that can be easily rectified. Myself and my husband would definately stay again and will be recommending to others 🙂

The hotel is about a 10 minute steady walk to The Royal Mile and the Old town but we preferred to be a little bit out of the way. The reception staff were super friendly and greeted us warmly after a long journey. They even upgraded our room free of charge which was really lovely of them. The room was spacious and clean. The bed and pillows were really comfortable and the breakfast each morning was incredible. All in all we had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend to others.
