Nice quiet hotel reasonably priced Beds too narrow
Gerry, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A great location in New Town, close to the action but just far enough away to be restful. The front desk staff were friendly, and the room was well equipped and comfortable.
Beth, 3-night trip

The room was small but comfortable. Really nice shower. Breakfast in the restaurant across the street was not worth the long wait.

Great service and location.
Maria, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Great location but generally unimpressed with the room for the cost. Beds moderately comfortable, bathroom very small with kids sized toilet. Just didn't compare to the hotel we had earlier in the trip in London for about the same cost. They do a nice job with what they have but again for the $$ I will probably look elsewhere. Reception staff very nice and accommodating. Offered to hold our bags at check out if we wanted to explore more.
Erik, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Solid place to stay and good location but small very warm rooms.

An excellent location with friendly staff. Great hotel rooms.
Serena, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Lovely, spacious and clean hotel room with friendly, helpful staff. The room we stayed in was VERY noisy on a Friday night as it's across the street from a bar where drunken people partied outside until the wee hours and we had an early morning flight to catch.
Allison, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Excellent location and good price. Room very cosy and clean. Lovely staff.
Linda, 3-night trip

William, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Fabulous location to explore Edinburgh. Breakfast at Rabble was brilliant; we include a family of 3 Ceoliac and lots of options for us. The room was a great size for the 4 of us. Would stay here again
