Everything apart from the pillows , great location for a hotel, friendly staff , clean , quiet hotel

Matthew United Kingdom

Fantastic location on Princes Street, comfortable bed, good shower, friendly staff. They were not serving food because of the restrictions but allowed us to bring in take away and eat in the beautiful lounge and bar area which has fantastic views over Princes Street.

Susan United Kingdom

Excellent location 2 minutes from Main Railway Station. Hotel is within a beautifully restored Art Deco building and fixtures and fittings throughout are of the highest quality. The staff are exceptional - welcoming, charming and knowledgable! For £9.00 we had a good breakfast (Cereals, croissants, pain aux chocolat, boiled egg, cold meat etc. choice of juices etc) This was served to us on the table and makes a nice change from the usual 'grab bag' which is now offered.

Petronella United Kingdom

The staff were lovely, really friendly and welcoming. The room was spotless, comfy and perfect for what we needed. The location is also fab with everything you need on the doorstep.
