We recently stayed at The Links for three nights during a trip to Scotland. To begin with, I can say that for the price, we had a big room with a nice view over the park. The staff was also very helpful in making dinner and touring suggestions and providing any help we needed. However, the room was not in... more

Arrived to find a large clean room with three single beds. There were only two of us so we were spoilt for choice! Beds very comfortable, which is what you need after long days walking, and enjoying all Edinburgh has to offer. Be warned that you may have to tackle the stairs. We were on the 3rd floor and it... more

Nice little hotel, room was big and clean, the breakfast was lovely and the bar (which was next door, but residents could enter via hotel) was also good, friendly staff and a mixed bag of locals, students,(both local and from abroad) as well as having sky sports and a good selection of beers plus a good menu that served till... more

We stayed at the Links hotel this past weekend, and it was not at all what we expected from a 3 star hotel. First of all, I think the primary business of the Links is a pub, so attention is clearly not on the hotel, which is apparent in the decor and upkeep. Our heater wasn't working and no one... more

Warning, you may find yourself either sleeping over a very noisy pub or next to the very noisy pub. We were unlucky enough to stay in the room right above the pub on Karoke night. The following evening we were serenaded by a group of very happy college boys singing "The Gangs All Here" at the table outside. If you... more

This hotel is a good choice for groups of young people in particular (Stags, Hens etc) due to its decent bar, which has a 24 hour licence for residents and plasma screens and pool tables, and the reasonable room rates which can be obtained from some sites. We booked two twin rooms but both rooms had three single beds and... more

I needed to stay in Edinburgh on a weekend when some 6 Nations rugby was going on in town. You may find that the city is quite booked up during this period. I called the Links first but they told me they were full. I checked on-line though, and it said there was a room and made the reservation for... more

The Links provides good accomodation at affordable prices - something which is becoming more and more rare these days, especially in Edinburgh, where most accomodation is double or quadruple the price we paid. We stayed here because it was a convenient location for visiting our student daughter just around the corner. We were aware that it's pub is a student... more

My husband and I stayed at the Links during the last week in November. We thought the room we stayed in was great. It overlooked a park that we could see through this enormous window. The people who worked there were so nice to us. In the pub, there is food and that was delicous. A full breakfast came with... more
