The rooms were clean and staff helpful. It could get noisy at night as this seemed to be a location close to universities.

Woof...
We stayed at quite a few amazing hotels during our two weeks in the UK...this was not one of them. Twice as expensive and half the size of any of the other 5 hotels we stayed at (Islay, Glasgow, Edinburgh, London and Belfast). Comically small. So small only one person could be out of bed navigating the floor at a time and a ceiling dormer right next to the bed that I had to duck under when I got out of bed (see photo). The shower wouldn't drain and we both had to stop mid shower before the water flowed over the curb. A mattress that felt that it was made out of concrete. This would be a perfect room for a hobbit, but not for a man and certainly not for a couple. Broom closet maybe? Did I mention the all-night revelry taking place right outside our window? In all seriousness, unless you have some reason for staying right on the Royal Mile, head into New Town (walking distance) and you'll find a quieter, larger room for less money. We'll definitely be back to Edinburgh, but won't be staying here.

The Ibis is in a great location by the Royal Mile. We were happy that it has an elevator! The bar was an unexpected bonus. What we didn’t care for was late night noise from the bottles that were being dumped after 10 pm, but we realize that it could’ve been the bar next door. Also - a fan in the room would’ve helped! All in all a good experience and price point.

Hotel is ideally located near major attractions, easy to walk to wherever you want to go, safe, clean and great staff. It is very noisy during the school year, the university kids were loud until about 5 am and I had a hard time sleeping through the noise.

The hotel is centrally located, just off the Royal Mile, so there were many restaurants and great sight-seeing attractions close by. If you have trouble sleeping with a noisy environment, there was a fair bit of activity from people partying & road cleaning equipment late into the night…over-all, I enjoyed my stay and rate it a 4/5

The staff was courteous and helpful. I requested a quieter room and it was indeed quiet.The room was better than expected, but twin beds seemed more narrow than average twin bed. Also, pillows were too thick for neck comfort. Otherwise I thought it was a great stay.

This was a fabulous hotel! Right off the Royal Mile, easy walk to the main train station. Comedy club around the corner, lots of dining options within walking distance. The hotel staff were fantastic, it was clean and well appointed. highly recommend.
