8/10 Very good

Great place to stay but very poor wifi
Great location and good access to public transportation. The bedrooms in the accommodation we had were comfortable and well decorated with ample storage space. The kitchen was well stocked with all kitchen items you could possibility need with the added benefit of a washing machine and dishwasher. Only issues were the wifi being very poor and that there was no info on how to use the digital thermostat. The wifi would connect but keep dropping/disconnecting to the point we gave up trying to use it. This also affected the digital tv.
Lana, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Wonderful apartment. Very cosy, very clean. Decoration is beautiful and everything you might need is ready for you. We had a studio without view (which means there are no windows at all), but it was perfectly ventilated and that didn’t bother us at all (except checking the weather in the morning maybe). Our only complaint is that the bed was a bit small (1m40) for 2 people. We also didn’t receive the correct room number and our code to enter the building was wrong. It would have been tricky if we did arrive as planned late at night.

Really good property for families, great location, access to private garden and park. Kitchen kitted out with all the necessities. There is road noise but didn’t bother us.

Great apartment stay in Edinburgh
Staff was very helpful and friendly. Clean and well appointed rooms. Easy walk to major tourist stops but with a more neighborhood feel.

Lovely apartment/ hotel
The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The building is in a great location and it was a very enjoyable stay!
Ellie, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property was clean, aesthetically pleasing, in a great location for walking the city, close to shops and restaurants. Even though you do have a code, there is someone on property for a number of hours during the day. Only downsides, communication was difficult and lacking, and the twin bed in the twin room was uncomfortable for an adult.
Candace, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great stay
A very comfortable, centrally located apartment. Everything we needed. Friendly staff. Well positioned to walk to most of the key sites.
Peter, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

The staff was amazing and checking in was very easy and pleasant The property was really lovely and located in best area of Edinburgh. The apartment was very spacious, well equipped and comfortable. The only negative was that there were no windows and because it was in the basement, the apartment required to be equipped with air vents and circulation which was very noisy and it could not be turned down and the sleep was disturbed. Overall it was very nice and large apartment in great location.
V, 3-night trip

I really enjoyed my stay at Sonder Royal Garden. Quiet, safe and within walking distance to restaurants, shops, Old Town Edinburgh, and Waverley Train Station. Staff were also super friendly. I would definitely stay here again.

It had everything we needed in the kitchen and was comfortable and clean. Front desk were super helpful and friendly. Fantastic location for visiting the city centre and transport links.

Great location and very close to the train station. Friendly staff and were very attentive when the sink broke to help to solve the problem. The rooms are really big and have great amenities and quiet! Would recommend staying if we went to Edinburgh again
Katie, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Sonder apartment is very well placed and was really comfortable. Has all you need. My only negative impression were the excessive charges for checking in between one and three hours before 4pm. I believe is not a good detail charging extra if the apartment is ready as it is already quite costly. They did not reply messages via Hotels.com
Cesar, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed at a two bedroom apartment. The kitchen had everything we needed to get started for our stay. Place was clean and comfortable. It was within walking distance of old town and new town. There were tram and bus stations everywhere. We did not need a rental car. The only complaint our beds were very stiff. There was a front desk with a manager when we arrived in the afternoon. The office is closed in the evening. Make sure your reservation is complete before arriving. Uploading ID documentation is very important. Great stay, beautiful gardens behind the hotel. Would stay again.
Tammy, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

On a 2 week Euro-trip, this was my fav stay. The staff was friendly, the place was easy to navigate. No issues with any outlets or appliances. Shopping & food was closeby - we didn't use transit once just because it was THAT walkable. Will def be coming back the next time I come to Edinburgh. Will also look into other Sonder properties when traveling!
SAMANTHA, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great value, unbeatable location, amazing comfort
The whole process was seamless - from leaving our bags in the lockers and checking in, to the stay itself. Central being an understatement - with walkable distance to every single thing you would want to visit in Edinburgh, comfortable and more than spacious for a three night stay and a fair price to boot - I’d highly recommend it.
