Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Angels Share Hotel enjoys a fantastic location, placing guests within easy reach of Princes Street and a short walk to Dean Village, with convenient access to the airport express bus. Many guests appreciate the spaciousness of the rooms, some themed around Scottish celebrities like Sean Connery and Brian Cox, complete with comfortable king-size beds, tea cakes, and proper coffee. The modern bathrooms often feature large showers with excellent water pressure; however, a few guests have noted that rooms on the third floor can get warm, even with the provided fan. Guests enjoy the restaurant food selection and cocktails.
