Deanne United States of America

Location couldn't be better. Stone's throw from Waverley Train Station. 10-15 minutes walk to the Old Town. Staff were all friendly and the receptionist allowed me early-check in. Room is a good size for solo traveller but you may find it a bit small if you're a couple. Can't comment on breakfast as I didn't avail of it. Would definitely stay again.

A brilliant hotel in the perfect location. The hotel is opposite Waverley Station on Princes Street and is the perfect location for exploring the city. Room size was much bigger than expected and a lovely view onto Princes Street. We would definitely return!
