An overnight stay near the Airport Bus Terminal

The young man in reception, Bogdan, was extremely helpful and I congratulate him on how he deals with customers. He has a likeable personality and i thank him for his help. I was disappointed at one aspect, and that was only one lift operating in one part of the hotel. My friend had to carry his suitcase and hand luggage up 2 flights of stairs. However, I would have no hesitation on returning on the understanding that I had a room near the restaurant which didn't involve hiking up stairs with suitcases.

Nice place to sleep in Old Town Edinburgh

It's pretty basic, but clean, nice, and with very friendly and helpful staff. The location is perfect if you want to see the sights of the Old Town. Nice shower, which is important to us. Has an elevator, which is always a good thing. Hotel staff was great, very responsive, and arranged a taxi to the airport very early the morning, which was on time and reasonably priced. Only thing I'd say is the mattress was not the newest, but still we did sleep well.

Brilliant 10/10

I really cannot fault this place! The building is part of a superb conversion of the former offices of The Scotsman newspaper, and the conversion itself is brilliant - all the style and atmosphere of the magnificent old building, but a modern, comfortable and easy-access boutique hotel. Staff are excellent (if a little inexperienced in a few cases), always helpful and caring. Breakfast is high-standard and freshly served. Room was well equipped and spacious, well furnished, and with a decent shower bathroom. The hotel is within a few minutes walk of Princes St and Edinburgh Waverley Station - I would suggest they make more use of the designation "The Scotsman old buidling" in describing the location as my taxi driver had difficulty identifying the destination. All in all a very pleasant experience

Great location just off Royal Mile and 10mins walk to castle. Also close to Waverly station and Princess St. Nice rooms and bathrooms - staff very friendly and speak many languages. The bar could be better stocked and some mood lighting and music would not go amiss. Have stayed here three times since 2016 and can highly recommend - must visit to the small Italian restaurant across the road - family run with great food and staff - also lots of other restaurants around and some nice coffee shops and bars.
