Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Staff all extremely helpful with tips and advice on excursions. Edinburgh has a fantastic transport system very easy to use and very good value, so the fact that this hotel is not smack bang in the middle is not a problem, in fact it is a positive as it is very peaceful especially in the beautiful... more

I spent 5 nights at the Salisbury with my 16 year old and her friend, during an extended visit to |Scottish universities..... The staff were excellent, and went out of their way to fulfill our requests....we moved rooms after the first night for a cooler room (imagine, we were there in a heatwave!) in the basement, with access to a... more

The hotel is really nice. We had the family room in the lower floor which has an access to a really nice garden where the kids would have stayed for the whole day instead of visiting the city centre. Location is really good, 20 minutes walking distance from the Castle and just 5 from a really nice public garden (which... more

Wonderful property that apparently used to be a residence. Great, attentive service, breakfast was great also. We ate dinner at the onsite restaurant our second night, foord was delicious. It's about a 20 min walk to Old Town, but they have parking and the room tariffs(rates) are reasonable so for the value, it's better than paying high prices for Old... more

We stayed at the Salisbury for 3 nights. The staff was great, the restaurant very good, and the room clean--but the hotel is not well located and the room was small and the bathroom very small. The Salisbury was $40/night more than a nicer hotel we found 2 weeks later on our return to Edinurgh-- that hotel had better rooms... more

Came with my wife for five nights and can say we were very happy with our choice. The Hotel is neat and clean. Staff was great. And it was relatively close to many parks and downtown. If you are not a walker, buses are available and close to the hotel. I highly recommend and Italian restaurant (Il Positano) with his... more

I, a somewhat frugal traveller who takes one European trip every two or three years, initially stayed at the Salisbury Hotel because it was very close to the residence halls where my son Danny was finishing up his semester abroad at the University of Edinburgh. I liked the room, bed, bath, free wi-fi, breakfasts, location, overall coziness and especially my... more

I booked the Salisbury based on good reviews on TripAdvisor. The reviews were accurate. The location is not central but very easily accessible to Old Town and New Town either by walking (about 20 minutes) or bus (multiple lines). I welcomed the slightly less central location because it was very quiet and beautiful. The restaurant is really great. I arrived... more
