About
Adelphi Hotel
Adelphi Hotel sits in a residential part of Edinburgh, barely 5 minutes’ walk from the open grassy expanse of Leith Links. Rooms are straightforward but comfortable, with tea and coffee facilities, flat-screen TVs, and heating. The location is practical rather than fancy: buses into the city centre stop nearby, and the seaside with its restaurants and bars is a short walk away.
The hotel keeps things simple, with no smoking on site, no pets allowed, and optional breakfast that guests often rate highly. It’s a three-star property that focuses on value, and reviewers repeatedly mention the helpful staff and the comfortable beds. For travellers who want a no-frills base in Leith without paying central Edinburgh prices, this fits the bill.

Worth weighing
4 to weigh- No pets allowed — If you’re travelling with a dog or cat, this hotel won’t work—pets are simply not permitted on site.
- Check-in only between 15:00 and 23:59 — Arrivals after midnight aren’t possible, so plan your travel to reach the hotel before the window closes.
- No on-site parking mentioned — If you’re driving, there’s no parking listed, so you’ll need to rely on street parking or public transport.
- Some reviewers didn’t get to stay — At least one guest reported a booking mix-up that led to relocation to another nearby hotel, so it’s worth confirming your reservation in advance.
