Room condition was good. Bed was comfortable. Amenities were clean and new. Its not in the city center as you have to walk some distance. If you like quiet area, this is a good place.
Spacious well appointed room with spectacular view of the Castle and other scenic points. Excellent staff, big bathroom, comfy bed. Would return in a heartbeat.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Very clean , quiet and comfortable , high quality . All staff engaged freely and pleasantly . Very close to Princes Street ….
No restaurant so you are given local recommendations for breakfast etc and they will serve drinks to you in the lobby which is well furnished but not a bar !
Absolutely perfect stay at The Resident Edinburgh.
A few highlights of trip:
Staff went above and beyond, writing an anniversary card and greeting guests every time they enter.
The room was perfectly equipped with extra large towels, a kitchenette and a ghd hairdryer. Nespresso pods were refilled every day.
Location was close to the center of town.
They provide a list of discounts at local restaurants to support the community.
They have a daily drinks event to build community with the guests.
All in all 10/10
