“Residence Inn stands out for its practical suites, complete with kitchenettes and free laundry-ideal for longer Edinburgh stays or family trips. I appreciate the central location near the University and Old Town attractions; it balances convenience with a degree of self-sufficiency, given the limited on-site dining. The breakfast setup can get a bit hectic, but the consistently helpful staff smooth things over.”
