Nice hotel. Food in restaurant is good and decent selection. Bed was comfortable but could use a couple more pillows. Washroom was ok, but could use hand towels and face cloths. Overall good value for the money and quite comfortable. There was no fridge in the room, but the bar was quite happy to give a large wine cooler bucket filled with ice to keep your drinks cold. There’s a Sainsbury almost right next door where you can purchase just about anything you want to eat or drink. Overall. We would stay there again.

The staff was young, friendly and incredibly helpful. The room was OK but it is sparse - one towel a piece and you have to ask for a bath mat. Serviceable is what I would call it. I always like having a hot water kettle. Wonderful proximity to the National Museum of Scotland and other places to visit. Just 10 minutes to the castle.

Overnight stay

Overnight stay to see Edinburg tattoo. Room clean comfy and staff friendly and helpful can’t fault. However the room was very noisy through the night with noise from water pipe work and adjacent shop being restocked through night. Advise ask for quiet room or high floor as this would probably reduce risk of overnight noise

We stayed here 7/15-17, breakfast was not included. After our 3 day tour, we came back to the same hotel and stayed 7/19-22. We paid the same amount of $$ ave. per night for the two stays but breakfast was included during our 2nd stay, not sure why. We chose this hotel mainly because their web says there is laundry facilities, but there is NO, which was disappointing.

great location, right in the middle of Old Town. Close to Edinburgh Waverley train station and Bright Bus Shuttle (that goes to the airport, 5GBP single) station (10 minute walk), a couple of minutes further is tram station that goes to the airport. From train or bus station to the hotel, it's uphill though. The hotel front desk staff were friendly and helpful, room was clean, but there is no desk, our bathroom door either stayed wide open or had to shut really hard with a big noise. Very good breakfast. There is NO laundry facilities (their web says yes and it's wrong). No hand lotion in the bathroom. It was a pleasant stay.

Good enough. Clean. Good location for accessing Edinburgh. Missing some simple amenities like tissues, conditioner for your (conditioning shampoo just doesn't cut it for someone with long thick hair), and hand towels. The breakfast was good. I was able to find things to eat there, even with my complex food allergies. But I really couldn't eat any other meals there. Not much of a problem. There's tons of restaurants around.

Good spot near Cowgate

Loved the hotel and room. Only thing I would note is that an option for outside air exchange would be nice. No openings at all. No windows or vents at all. It made it quiet but also somewhat stifling.

Seems that all the rooms are small cookie-cutter replicas with washroom "pods" that include sink, toilet and shower all crammed in. The room was light and airy and had a nice counter under the window to make up for lack of space. Staff were very friendly and helpful. You pay a lot to stay on the Royal Mile in a small room so enjoy getting out and about!

Room was simple but had everything we needed. Staff were very helpful, allowing us to check in early and looked after our luggage before a later flight. Really great service.
