Our initial room on 3rd floor, was VERY cold due to the draft coming from the window, it was also very noisy and you could hear every conversation from outside on the road. Thankfully the next morning, the lady at reception moved us up to the 4th floor, this was great, no noise, no draft and nice dark room to sleep in. The staff were really friendly. It’s about 7min walk from the royal mile with lots of shops along the way.

Lovely stay!

I really enjoyed staying here for the Fringe fest! It's super close to George Square (Assembly) but still very quiet and peaceful. The room was very comfortable. It had two shower heads and a big bed. Check in was quick and easy. Would definitely stay again!

Lovely stay, staff were very accommodating and friendly. Rooms could do with a little refurb but can’t really complain given the price we paid to be in Edinburgh so was really good value for money. Breakfast was spot on too.

Small but with everything you would need for a weekend break. 24/7 reception friendly and helpful. No lift but stairs to floors not overly steep. Breakfast buffet with hot m cold food in adjoining building was great! Rooms quiet but surrounding streets busy and noisy at times. Easy access to pubs and restaurants! Definitely recommend as not too costly

Great stay

Lovely room, ideal location. Breakfast was lovley and staff are very friendly. The room was clean and in very good condition. The radiator was on when we arrived however and it was so incredibly hot! Luckily it was easy to switch off and the window and fan helped cool the room down.

The hotel is located 12 mins walk from Edinburgh Waverley train station, good location. Everything is expensive in the area including the hotel this is Edinburgh and tourist trap almost license to make money. The rooms are quite noisy but probably more inconsiderate guests talking past 11pm. The window didn’t open as handle broken. The staff were excellent and complimentary gym pass 2 mins away.
