The Spotlight on Haymarket Hotel

Victorian Charm in Edinburgh's West End

Nestled down a cobbled street in the historic Haymarket district, the Haymarket Hotel combines classic elegance with modern comfort. Spread across six beautifully preserved Victorian townhouses, this stylish hotel offers a warm, heritage-rich stay just a short stroll from Edinburgh’s vibrant cultural and music scene. With individually decorated rooms, free WiFi, and a central location only 250 yards from Haymarket Railway Station, it’s a perfect city escape for concert-goers visiting Scotland's capital.

Why Concert-goers love it

The Haymarket Hotel is just 15 minutes on foot to central Edinburgh venues, and even closer to Murrayfield Stadium. With the Haymarket Railway Station and tram stops just around the corner, getting to and from gigs—even late at night—is super convenient. Despite its central location, the quiet cobbled street keeps things peaceful for that much-needed post-show unwind. Bonus: check-in starts at 15:00 and you'll have until 11:00 to sleep in after a big night.

Who this Hotel is great for

- Groups of friends looking for a central but chill home base
- Solo travelers chasing a legendary live performance
- Couples making a musical weekend of it
- Fans wanting quiet recovery in a charming setting
- Budget-conscious music lovers seeking value in the city center

Food and Drink Options

Logan’s, the hotel’s stylish café-bar, serves up all-day coffee, drinks, and a full Scottish breakfast every morning—a definite perk after a late night out. While there’s no 24-hour room service, the area is packed with bistros, pubs, and restaurants within a 5-minute walk. Whether you're fueling up before the show or grabbing a bite after, you'll find plenty of options nearby.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself is more about cozy comfort than late-night partying, you’re just a short walk or tram ride from Edinburgh’s buzzing nightlife. Enjoy bars and lounges in the West End or head towards the city center for live music spots and after-hours drinks. Logan’s bar is a relaxed place to start your evening with a local whisky or craft beer.

What People Say

Guests love the atmospheric setting in historic townhouses, the friendly staff, and the spot-on location for exploring Edinburgh and getting to events. Many mention the comfortable beds and appreciated the upscale touches in the deluxe rooms like bathrobes and Nespresso machines. Reviewers also praise the breakfast quality and the ease of public transport access.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that rooms at the front can pick up a bit of street noise, especially on weekends. Also, due to the building’s historic nature, there’s no elevator—so pack light or request a lower floor if stairs are a concern.

The Bottom Line

The Haymarket Hotel offers a blend of heritage charm and city convenience—perfect for concert-goers seeking comfort, culture, and easy access to Edinburgh’s live music venues.

Cathy, Linlithgow Fri, 15 March 2024

Comfy bed; good breakfast; very nice staff. I came to town for a concert. The hotel was well located to the concert venue as well as the train station. I'd stay here again.

Disliked: Just wish face cloths had been in the room.

Great experience and really enjoyed...

Liked: Lovely refurbished apartments in an older part of Edinburgh-great location
Disliked: Parking is a big problem in Edinburgh generally, and even street parking with meters is expensive (about $US8 an hour in some locations). We found an app called JustPark where people let you park in their private parking space - it was great

Nice staff

Liked: Super nice staff and immediately supportive to fix an issue with my room's lock. Also, they borrowed me an adapter so that I didn't have to buy a new one when mine stopped working.
Disliked: Although I appreciate there were big events running during my stay, I don't think it was worth the cost.

Poor - 1.5 out of 5

Sharon Wed, 20 August 2025

Poor

Liked: Location was good
Disliked: Room wasn't ready for check in at 3pm. Had to wait another 35 minutes. Then taken to a basement room where there was no fresh air. Windows wouldn't open and no fan in bathroom. Could hear every noise above you day and night. Bed wasn't very comfortable and room smelt quite musty. At checkout wasn't asked how stay was so didn't have the opportunity to say anything!

I enjoyed my stay and...

Liked: The location of this hotel is excellent for the tram from the airport. The rooms are beautifully appointed, with good floors, ceilings and furniture. The staff are friendly.
Disliked: I was in a lower ground floor room and found that my window was wide open, which seemed a little insecure. But it was ok; I shut it.
