Our stay was good. We had a few issues with our room but Emma the manager was fantastic! Super attentive and caring and sorted out our room issue super quickly. A bottle of Prosecco and ice bucket was left for us when we returned which was fabulous. The other staff were so friendly, I believe his name is Keith, (sorry if it’s not!!) Was so funny, informative about the local area and super helpful which was fab. My only real complaint is that the windows are super thin so the room can get quite cold at night and it’s very noisey on the front side of the building due to the local businesses, but that’s no fault of the hotel. Other than that, the location was amazing and the bed was super comfy. Thanks again Emma!

Edinburgh short stay.
The hotel had a very studenty vibe as I believe it is run by Edinburgh university and was once student accommodation. The rooms are small but perfect for a short stay in Edinburgh. The rooms are clean and have been recently decorated. The breakfast was an absolute bargain, nothing fancy but really nice and a good quality coffee machine included. Overall the value for money was amazing and had a great stay.

Some good and not-so-good things. The best thing about the KM hotel was the invariably cheerful and helpful service desk staff. If there were two of them talking, they immediately stopped and asked how to help me. They also had a very good "Scottish breakfast," with varied foods on the buffet - and they were willing to cook eggs to order in the kitchen. From the web site, I thought I'd be paying extra for breakfast, but it turned out to be included in my total price. The location was wonderful if you're interested in seeing attractions at the heart of Edinburgh. There are a lot of things within easy walking distance. It was also a quiet neighborhood, which was good, because the windows were far from soundproof - I could easily hear normal street conversations. The room itself was a mixed bag. It was clean, well-organized, but the very very small and narrow size meant that the (comfortable!) king-size bed was only accessible from one side; the other was jammed up against the wall! Even the "accessible" side only had one foot clearance from the wall, and the location of coat hangers meant that you had to hit your head or duck even on your way to the bed. There were good wall lights for reading in bed, but they were not centered because of the window position, so the side of the bed NOT next to the wall got shortchanged. There was no door on the shower, so it was hard to avoid getting the bathroom floor wet. The sink was microscopic.

Clean and comfortable hotel in a central location
Comfortable and clean hotel in a central location in Edinburgh. A bit pricey for a basic room, but there may just be high demand in Edinburgh which inflates the prices. The complimentary breakfast was excellent.
