We had a really lovely stay at no 24. Such a great location and the hotel was quirky and fun, and the staff were all lovely. The room (superior double) felt luxurious with a large roll top bath and comfy super king size bed.

Hidden gem in Edinburgh
This is an amazing property, with very unique features. We felt as we are staying in private apartment, with amazing art, whisky tasting room and host that possessed encyclopedic knowledge and charm. Location is excellent with close proximity to center of the town and all the tourist attractions, but at the same time very quiet and relaxed.

What a cute boutique hotel! The room is very lovely with beautiful artwork throughout the hotel and room. Bed is very comfortable and bathroom large with plenty of hot water. We didn't eat in the restaurant or use the bar, but they look lovely. Front desk is very helpful. Highly recommend and would stay again.

Utterly brilliant!
This hotel is a true gem! In fact it’s not a hotel it’s a home away from home really. It has a real personable feel which you just don’t get from chains. Staff are super friendly and I got the warmest welcome I’ve ever had when checking in. Really can’t fault it.

Great stay
My 3 might stay at 24 Royal Terrace was a trip highlight. The room was very comfortable, spacious and (most importantly) exceptionally clean. The property as a whole had a lovely character, with unique artworks on all of the walls. Staff were very welcoming and helpful providing good directions and suggestions. Wouldn't consider staying elsewhere on any future trips to Edinburgh.
