Excellent location and breakfast was amazing room and bathroom great

Magssy United Kingdom

The staff was absolutely brilliant, a special mention to Virginia from reception who went on the extra mile with my family especially with my elderly grandmother who got lost a couple of times. She was so attentive and helpful during all the stay. The Bulgarian girl who was attending the rooms on the sixth floor on Monday (sorry I didn't take your name) was lovely and so helpful as well. The breakfast was brilliant!

C United Kingdom

Great location, staff worked so hard, pleasant stay

Brian United Kingdom

Location was fantastic. Beds were small, but comfortable. No breakfast at this location. The bathrooms were quite small. Overall, it was a fine stay.

Joseph United States of America

The location made everything very walkable and their breakfast was very good!

Antoinette United States of America

Property was in ideal position for sightseeing. Staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. On arrival they had organised Prosecco and little celebration biscuits in our room, which was unexpected and very thoughtful.

Elaine United Kingdom

Great location for a great price. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Room was clean and comfortable.

Abbie United Kingdom

Very clean everything you need staff helpful and friendly excellent situation right in Royal Mile easy to get to all attractions

Yvonne United Kingdom

The location is great, 5 minutes from Edinburgh Waverley and the Royal mile and on a street that has everything you could need in terms of restaurants, cafes, pubs, supermarkets. We were lucky to have a great view of Edinburgh as well, while the room was comfortable, with everything you need for a pleasant stay (free Wifi, toiletries) and very clean.

Fabio United Kingdom

The hotel location was perfect. Right on the main road and less than a 5 minute walk to the main market street, everything was great in terms of that. Also the Castle is only a 10 minute walk away and it is easy to find all landmarks and locations.
