Very Poor
Good location
AVOID IN NO WAY 4* stayed in this property in December 2024 so planned a return visit in December 2025 wish we hadn’t of bothered.
Acknowledged by staff the hotel is dated and just about to undergo a 60 room refurbishment. Not fit for purpose in the current guise.
So to summarise the 4* facilities.
*either freezing cold or boiling hot room no in between or ability to control the AC as it didn’t work. Or open a window as this didn’t work.
*detrimental TV which switched itself off after 5 minutes of use.
*Sellotape holding up damaged wall paper
*missing shower screen in bathroom no attempt to fix or rectify resulting in soaking wet bathroom upon using shower.
*damage to lamination on shelving unit likely due to water damage from previous guests not having a shower door.
*extremely noisy room due to location next to staff cleaning office and kitchen. Slamming doors disrupting sleep from 6am
*light right outside of the basement window which could have been turned off in later hours. Noticeable even once the curtains were closed.
*shoddy repair work on the tiles and generally throughout the room.
*damage to walls around the room and strange mirror being installed to cover damage right above the bed which again left an easy feeling as this stuck out like a sore thumb on the blue wall papered walls.
All of which has been shown in the photos attached. Addressed all issues with staff during stay and was simply told to email concerns as this will help in facilitating the refurbishments.

Excellent location, generous room although A/C not working, quiet, cosy bar, luggage services were free
The A/C wasn't working so no heat or cool, but they did loan us a fan heater. In room fridge turned out to be a cooler

Very nice hotel, conveniently located, clean, up to date, functional, quiet.
There are two Hotel Indigos in Edinburgh and the two could be better distinguished from one another, especially on navigation apps.

Ideal location for all amenities & attractions in city centre. Great size room.
Staff not as welcoming or accommodating as experienced in other IHG hotels

Disappointing
After enjoying the boutique style decor in Bath we chose Hotel Indigo in Edinburgh. Loved the decor in the main part of hotel and lovely scent as you walk like Bath. The staff were lovely on the whole and helpful when we raised issues. Breakfast was fabulous and a lot of quality food to choose from. The hotel helped store our bags after check out so that we could be bag free for the day as we had a late flight
Unfortunately the room did not meet expectations like the rest of the hotel and other Hotel Indigos we have stayed in. We stayed in room 102 and it was probably one of the dirtiest rooms we have stayed in taking into account the price of the room and how the rest of the hotel is presented. The shower tray contained shower scum in the corners containing hair from a previous occupant. This was sorted by reception staff when raised and cleaned whilst we were out. It was also very dusty and there was hair from previous occupants on the mats placed at the side of the bed which I could not bear to look at and chose to ignore by pushing it under the bed. It was thick with dust on each level of the bed board above our heads. I don’t think any member of the cleaning team has thought to wipe those down in a very long time. Also dust around the lampshades.The bed was really hard and uncomfortable and the pillows were pretty gutless. I have slept on better mattresses in a 3 star. However when I asked for extra pillows these were promptly provided by staff, which helped. It just did not provide that boutique luxury feel like the rest of the hotel does which was a huge shame.

Hotel was very clean well maintained and welcoming. Staff very attentive polite and friendly. Room had a very comfy bed and the shower was powerful with very hot water and plenty of it. Breakfast was excellent with a good selection of hot food. The food was cooked and presented beautifully. Will definitely stay here again as we couldn't fault anything.

Clean, quiet, centrally located, near attractions, transit, shopping. Easy to access from the airport.
A little over my budget.
Thank you for your information!
