Very central, close to everything, rooms were a decent size and beds comfy..plenty of tv channels to browse! Had an issue with my room on check in,this was cleared up swiftly and my credit card was reimbursed within the hour!! Had one little issue, I discovered a baby rat/mouse curled on my floor, not sure how he got in as I didnt open the window during my stay, anyhow my sister who was in the room next door removed him and he was released outside by staff member. .I wasnt too bothered as not afraid of mice,though a lot of people are!! And its not great for hygiene... The hotel manager assured us pest control were arriving the following morning....i was upgraded to big roomy family suite for my last night...this wouldnt put me off staying here again if I return to the city as its a decent hotel in a very good location!!!

It was not far from the station, I could reach it easily in the early morning.The room was very comfortable, the staff was kind and helpful.The price of the room was ok. My room was in the basement , I had to go through a kind of labyrint and was a bit difficult for me to find the room, as well as the way out.

The bath room is clean and there is a bath tab, not only shower. The room is not large but clean and comfortable. I stayed in a single room. It was not large, but still acceptable.

Good location. For £48, it was good value, but I would not have paid the full room price. Clean modern en-suite and good bed, though the hotel itself is a little thread-bare. No noise-proofing whatsoever. I was kept up by rowdy people on the street and could hear my next door neighbour snoring. The curtains were very thin as well, so no chance of sleeping past sunrise.

Price was low for a single room. The hotel was 5 minutes walk from main shopping area. Free use of WiFi. I was able to find the Hotel easily. I could hear everything in the room next to mine and the hallway outside my room.

The location was fantastic. I had been impressed with reviews I had read on TripAdvisor and knew that the Cairn Hotel would be nice. My room was spotlessly clean, the bathroom was brand new. The shortbread biscuits on the tea and coffee tray in the room were a lovely touch. The beds were perfectly comfortable. I had a ground floor room and was not woken by any loud noise or traffic. Despite its central location, it is in a very quiet side street which makes it perfect for being in the heart of the city yet far from the madding crowd. I will definitely stay there again. No hairdryer in the room, although one could be borrowed from reception if required. Having said that, you can pick up a cheap travel one for 8 quid these days, so I just did that and now have a spare hairdryer for next time I come up to Edinburgh!

Room is big, staff is kindly and useful. Near city center about 10min walk. Maybe because the window can not be opend, there is some strange smell in the room.
