Moxy Edinburgh Fountainbridge

Lovely atmosphere, we got a welcome cocktail, food, games etc. Really comfy bed.

The hotel was in a great location and the bus stop outside was extremely useful.the decoration was great and the employees were kind and helpful.

Good location - further from the centre so it was quiet but good connections via public transport. Lovely rooftop bar, with two very dedicated bartenders who were really devoted to their craft. We didn't catch their names but a young man and a young woman served us and were wonderful. We only had breakfast on our last morning but it was delicious, as always. Bed was comfy and soft. There were useful motion sensitive lights under the bed so you could see to the toilet without waking yourself up too much. Good noise cancelling, didn't hear any neighbours. Lovely reception/bar with lots of games to play. I saw a variety of people of all ages enjoying this area (children, young couples and older groups). Really nicely decorated. Free cocktail on arrival, a punch mix drink. There is a gym but we didn't use it.

Overall a good value for the price. Walkable to both the Royal Mile and the Haymarket station, and good bus connections to the whole city. The staff were consistently very helpful and friendly and took very good care of us, had excellent recommendations for restaurants and things to do, and generally went above and beyond in making our stay comfortable and enjoyable. The breakfast was of quite good quality with a large variety of foods on offer, but it's a better value for the money if you book it with your room instead of paying separately. The room overlooked a closed courtyard, and the linens, beds, pillows, gym, and other amenities were adequate and serviceable, if unremarkable. They provided a computer and printer for guest use, which ended up being very helpful in dealing with a cancelled flight. The decor is corny as can be, and the fake graffiti is just embarrassing, but it doesn't detract from the overall experience.

The atmosphere of the hotel is really nice, relaxed and energetic. An early check-in was arranged without any hick-ups. Room was spacious and the bed veeeeery comfortable. We were a bit worried about the fact that our room was on the road-facing-side, but the windows are well insulated and none of the road noise could be heard in the room. Breakfast is a bit pricey but very good and provides lots of options to choose from. Also the evening menu at the bar was good and sufficient for those "just a bit of something"-cravings.
