8/10 Very good

Lovely stay, staff were very accommodating and friendly. Rooms could do with a little refurb but can’t really complain given the price we paid to be in Edinburgh so was really good value for money. Breakfast was spot on too.

Great reception and extremely helpful. Modern very clean and looked after.
John, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

I accept dynamic pricing but in return for high prices comes high expectation. Two night stay, room not serviced , drink tray not replenished, dirty cutlery ignored. fire doors wedged open at night, v noisy service bay at night, even with demand pushing up prices, £300 a night for a small third floor room with no lift and no public space is pushy.
Geoffrey, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Difficult to find parking during the day.
Joe, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Room was really nice, but the fan on the bathroom was really noisy! No air conditioning in the room, so pretty hot in the room.
Kim, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

It wasn’t OK stay. It’s central, and the Room had everything I need. Not giving this five stars, because the cleanliness could’ve been a little bit better. There was a hair on my shower wall and some places where the facilities were clearly weathered. Skip breakfast IMO.
Maria, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The staff was helpful. The breakfast was very good. This is more of a University property. Our window opened to a delivery area so was kind of noisy early in the morning. Our room was also Very small. And do note there is No elevator. We missed that and had to walk up multiple stairs with luggage.
Terri, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Our stay was good. We had a few issues with our room but Emma the manager was fantastic! Super attentive and caring and sorted out our room issue super quickly. A bottle of Prosecco and ice bucket was left for us when we returned which was fabulous. The other staff were so friendly, I believe his name is Keith, (sorry if it’s not!!) Was so funny, informative about the local area and super helpful which was fab. My only real complaint is that the windows are super thin so the room can get quite cold at night and it’s very noisey on the front side of the building due to the local businesses, but that’s no fault of the hotel. Other than that, the location was amazing and the bed was super comfy. Thanks again Emma!
Alanna, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

The staff need leadership and support

Having stayed here before, this should have been a convenient and hassle free stay before an early flight. There was an issue with the room. It was not addressed. After expressly asking for a new room we were moved to another location which was less suitable for our needs. It shouldn't have taken over hours for this to happen.

Lovely stay!

I really enjoyed staying here for the Fringe fest! It's super close to George Square (Assembly) but still very quiet and peaceful. The room was very comfortable. It had two shower heads and a big bed. Check in was quick and easy. Would definitely stay again!

Great little place to stay, the room was warm. But overall for the price very good

4/10 Fair

Extremely loud outside, since there is no AC the window had to be cracked open which made it even worse and tge noise would be horrible
