Clean, aesthetic and central for a weekend break.
Staff couldn't be friendlier on check in and check out. Room and hotel as a whole was kept to a high finish, minimal wear and tear and very clean. It felt very luxurious, nice places to sit in the evening, super comfy bed. Cant comment on food but I would recommend The Place/ stay there again

Excellent Location - That's about it!
Excellent location. Standard room on top floor, in eaves. Low ceiling, claustrophobic. Check in unwelcoming. Checkout and request to leave luggage excellent, staff polite and enthusiastic. Arrived back at 10.30pm on Sat, bar staff advised bar was closed. Poor! Edinburgh accommodation is expensive and the least one would expect is enthusiastic service. Other than location and cleanliness I couldn't recommend this hotel. Definitely NVfM.

Weekend stay in Edinburgh
Very friendly staff on reception, the room was clean, quiet and the hotel itself is perfectly located to see all the sites of Edinburgh. The room was a bit hot but thats more of a personal preference. Would definitely stay again.
