Hotel was in a great location. Walkable to Royal Mile, food and souvenir shops. The staff is very nice and helpful. Only negative is the place can get sketchy with people asking for money. Also the hotel rooms need to be updated. Clean and everything works well, but you can see the old stains on curtains and dust in vents. Would still come back again.

we paid for a premium room with robes and an espresso machine. espresso machine leaked a lot, but we managed. yet refills for it were a chore to get. room service did not provide refills and one capsule of nespresso yields 20 ml of coffee. but we were greatful even for that, because the coffee in the city was atrocious. the robes never showed up... despite me asking. the people at the lobby were friendly. a ukrainian girl was super polite and welcoming. she tries really hard. hospitality is her thing. the breakfast was ok, we ate it once. what we liked the most is location and that our room had large windows that faced the road. the room was clean. it would be nice to have a tinest fridge. i like milk with my coffee and since refills were scarse, i bought the smallest jug and poured it out every day, since there is no way to store it. if i were to return to edinburgh, i would book again.

Booked this hotel as it stated they had parking. However when I pulled up they didn't have any parking, but had a discounted rate at a parking garage over 10 mins away, so was not as advertised and added too much extra time, with leaving early the next day. The room we had was through the restaurant, so awkward to access. It faced the street at the back and with having terrible windows, we got no sleep, as the street noise kept us up till about 3am with drinkers outside the pubs. The entrance door to our corridor banged every time someone came in, and with paper thin doors and walls, it was very loud all night. The bed and pillows were poor quality, the bathroom was very loud when anyone in floors above used their bathroom, with the noise transferring to our room.

Poor Room Conditions and Questionable Cleanliness

I was really disappointed by the overall condition of the hotel, especially given the cost of the room. The room itself was extremely stuffy, with visible mould around the walls and window. The bathroom was not clean, and I even found hair on the walls and towels, which was quite unpleasant. The kettle in the room was also dirty, with orange and black residue inside, making it unusable. The furniture and room in general felt very worn out, which only added to the negative impression. I’ve stayed in several hotels before, and it was clear that the attention to detail when it came to cleanliness was lacking here. Unfortunately, I wouldn’t recommend this hotel or choose to stay here again. That said, the front desk staff were very friendly and helpful when approached, which I did appreciate.

It was good but…

I was disappointed that I could not close the window in the room, I really had to slam the outer window, but the inner window would not close, the street below could be noisy and I was woken up by a Man shouting at around 4am one morning. Also no telephone in the room to call reception, I found this odd for a hotel.

Can really located near the royal Mile was very convenient but the hotel Was closer to a hostel. Staff was great — but the room Was Like an office that had been co veered with a fiberglass small bathroom Plopped into the room, sitting six I chew above the floor. The breakfast was mediocre And they had only one coffee machine working which meant waiting in line for 15 Minutes To get a cup of Coffee.

Wonderful location and good for the price. The room itself was older and likely should be renovated in the future. The shower was quite small, but again it did get the job done. Minimal amenities- not unexpected for the price point.
