Lovely clean rooms. Good location with nice views over nearby river. Staff are courteous and helpful. Stayed here twice and will definitely stay again.
The location in the Port of Leith is peerless, with a host of excellent restaurants, coffee shops, and pubs within walking distance, and the hotel offers great comfort, sleek style, and lovely views. We were delighted with a complimentary upgrade to

Lovely, clean, warm, comfortable room. Friendly staff. Would stay again.
Reception staff were excellent. We arrived very early and wasn’t expecting to get a room, but the girl on reception said our room was ready and even gave us a free upgrade!
We love the location of this hotel, very easy to get about thanks to the great trams.
