Great stay
Good location, clean, friendly staff, good-sized rooms. Breakfast in the hotel was not great so only paid for it on the first day (but there are lots of good brunch spots nearby so wasn't an issue)

Verified Expedia guest review

6/10 Good

This was a charming hotel near enough to walk to the main streets in Edinburgh easily, but not so close that it was loud or you couldn’t get rest. The staff was always friendly and accommodating, but the room was older and the walls very thin. Not a bad choice as it’s more economical than other hotels, but not as modern as others either. There’s a Tesco around the corner (to the North) and a good Chinese restaurant down the block (to the East). I would recommend an overnight stay here, but would maybe check out a different location if you’ll be in Edinburgh longer than a weekend.
