Perfect location for an Edinburgh getaway
Great location, nice and comfortable rooms. The restaurant and bar gets very busy and loud at night, but as soon as you go upstairs to the rooms you can't hear anything

Very good hosts, friendly and welcoming. Best parties the actual restaurant which is amazing. The 15£ meal deal is great value and tasty. The property is a large bed with modern amenities - rooms really comfortable and enjoyable. Recommend.

The atmosphere of the hotel was excellent, the restaurant and bar had very good food options. There was no lift and there was no extractor in the bathroom, so the room felt quite humid.

Hotel was ace, very comfortable, friendly and great service. Highly recommend to stay as close to centre and the bar/restaurant is quirky!!
Paddy, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

We spent five nights at the Hotel Rabble. Basically, the background noise (especially the filling and emptying of glass and garbage containers late at night and early in the morning) on the side street to which all windows face was very loud, so it was not possible to sleep well. Unfortunately, this is also due to the fact that the windows were not well isolated. The cleaning of the rooms was also only average, even though the rooms were modern and generously furnished. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the à la carte-breakfast was also delicious. The location of the hotel is absolutely great and all the sights were within walking distance and easily accessible by public transportation.

The restaurant in the hotel was phenomenal! Every meal I ate here was delicious. It is walking distance from shopping, historical sites, and I loved the overall vibe. I will definitely stay here again and recommend to anyone coming to Edinburgh.

Colm, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely boutique hotel, clean fresh rooms, the staff were wonderful, great breakfast and a lovely relaxed vibe in the evening for cocktails. Very central. The only reason I’ve given them a 4 for facilities and not 5 is that our room was on the third floor, 6 flights of steps with no lift. Difficult at 65 with a bad hip. The room overlooked the back alley, and you heard the loud noise of empty bottles being emptied into the skip. But that aside I would stay here again….but would ask for a lower floor. The manager and staff were great

Annual Xmas visit with the girls.
An amazing experience staying at this very friendly hotel, in a prime location. Food outstanding. Staff go above and beyond to meet your needs. We enjoyed it that much already booked for same time next year.
Linda, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Wonderful location for first time visitors. Staff is so lovely and check in and out fast. Very convenient to have the restaurant and bar downstairs! Tip - avoid first floor by cleaner closet or you’ll hear the door frequently in the early morning.

Fantastic helpful staff, amazing cocktail menu, beautiful decor, comfy bed and well appointed room. Not for anyone with mobility issues due to steps and no lift.
Patricia, 2-night trip

Really friendly staff who could not do enough for you. Only slight downside is the bed was not that comfortable. The mattress was uncomfortable. Sorry.
Diana, 1-night trip

Nice quirky hotel. The rooms were really good with a lot of amenities. The only thing that let us down was the music in the bar area. Was to loud to have a proper conversation with someone.
