This hotel couldn’t be more conveniently located. It’s literally within walking distance of everything… restaurants, shopping, sight seeing, Edinburgh castle, buses, etc. it was clean and quiet. We had a great view of the whole city from our room. The bar/restaurant is very nice with good views, and the staff was friendly. The only issue was that the water barely came out in the shower, and didn’t get very hot. However, I would definitely stay there again.

Lobby and lounge is lovely but the actual rooms you stay in are very small and run down. They obviously do not put any priority to the condition of the hotel room. Very disappointing. Would not recommend this hotel to friends.

Great place to stay In Edinburgh. Close to the theater, new shopping center, and North Bridge to Royal Mile. Easy access to public transportation. We have stayed in multiple places in Edinburgh and this was by far the most convenient and reasonably priced option we have found.

All the reviews about this hotel are right on. As with all hotels, depending where you normally stay and what you are used to, you might find it perfect - it’s clean, the staff are all amazing, the bed is good, great sheets and pillows, nice new towels, the location is unbeatable…. But for me, travelling alone, the room simply felt like a basement somehow, cold and uninviting. It would be OK if it wasn’t so expensive, but not at the price they charge.
