Cairn Hotel & Apartments Review

The 3-star Cairn Aparthotel is nestled close to the lively district of Edinburgh. Featuring storage for belongings and a lobby area, this Edinburgh hotel is located within 650 metres of Dugald Stewart Monument.

This Edinburgh property serves a continental breakfast every morning. Guests at the accommodation can enjoy different dining options available at the lounge bar. You may walk 5 minutes to Joseph Pearce or eat by The Gardener's Cottage, located only 200 metres away.

Impressions

Oh, hello there, fellow foodie traveler! Let me paint a picture of the Cairn Hotel & Apartments in Edinburgh for you, but with a gastronomic twist! As you step into this charming abode, the aroma of warm hospitality envelops you, much like the comforting scent of a hearty Scottish stew simmering in a kitchen. First off, let's talk Wi-Fi - because, let's face it, Instagramming those delectable haggis bites is a must. And the 24-hour reception and security? Well, that means you can roam the cobbled streets of Edinburgh, sampling Scotch whiskies and artisanal chocolates, without a care in the world.

Now, picture this: after a day of exploring Edinburgh's culinary wonders, you return to the hotel. A welcome drink awaits at the bar/lounge area – a wee dram of whisky, perhaps? And here's the kicker – the apartment comes equipped with a flat-screen TV and an electric kettle. Why? Well, imagine snuggling up with a cup of steaming Scottish breakfast tea while watching a cooking show featuring the very dishes you've indulged in throughout the day. Oh, and did I mention the kitchen utensils and cookware? It's like having your own little culinary kingdom right there in your apartment. All this, and a strict no-pets-allowed policy ensure that your gastronomic adventures are not to be interrupted by any paws or purrs, and definitely no smoking on site means your sense of taste and smell won’t be compromised. Cheers to that, my fellow epicurean explorer!

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The bed was incredibly comfy, providing a restful night's sleep. The room and hotel were impeccably clean, fresh, and modern. I appreciated the extras in the basket, like crisps and chocolate, which added a nice touch. The location was perfect, just a short 10-minute walk from the train station. This made it easy to explore the city center and visit local attractions. The staff was incredibly helpful and accommodating, even allowing me to leave my luggage after checking out. a wonderful experience!
Nothing that I didn't like.
