Nothing to complain about here , the room , location , breakfast and the staff was all very good . Would happily stay here again .
Easy check in and the receptionist gave us some ideas of where to go which we did (thank you). Rooms were large and well decorated and cleaned. Ideal location as we’d arrived by train. Would definitely come again.

The location is very good, between the old town and the new town, almost in front of Waverley Station. The room was very clean, and silent. The only minor inconvenience was that the room was too hot, but we turned on the A/C and problem solved. The view from our room was great.
Great hotel in great location just off the Royal Mile in Old Town Edinburgh. Rooms were clean and updated. Restaurant/bar is great and staff are very helpful all around.
Enjoyed my stay here. The only thing I didn’t like was the smell of the lobby and the entry way to the rooms. It was very strong. Gave me a headache every time I walked to/from my room. Tone the air freshener down. Other than that, everything was good.
Really good location and staff were very attentive and availaible. Toiletries and available services in the room were also very good and the room was spotless.

There was a really helpful member of staff (male, Scottish, Newcastle fan - I’m a Sunderland fan so that should show how good he was! ) who gave us advice about where to go and helped with our bags and check in
