Although the room was clean, the size was quite small and a bit cramped, for what we paid we would have expected more room. However the view was gorgous and the location was perfect.

Jade United Kingdom

Location was really good except that it was behing Apple store.

Socrates United States of America

Overall excellent, with great location. Room was comfortable and generally clean; bathroom sink was maybe stained but probably dirty, otherwise room was quite good. Staff was unfailingly friendly and helpful!

Sharon United States of America

The location is exceptional! on the Main Street of the city center. The staff was very nice and helpful and the room was very modern, clean and comfortable. The breakfast was excellent too.

Ariel Israel

This location is just off the street noise of Princes St actually which is good for me, a light sleeper. Room was big, nice ensure too. There's a nice area near reception to just hang out which we did as we prepared to take the tram back to EDI.
