Pros +
- The staff was exceptional
- Very handy location being on a side street just off Edinburgh Waverly. I was particularly impressed with how responsive the staff were - when a socket wasn't working they saw to it immediately.
- Great location, staff were lovely
Cons -
- Not as luxe as I expected
- View from room was a wall, no plug socket by kettle, construction work happening in hotel, woken at around 9.30am with drilling sounds, pillows really uncomfortable..just use normal shaped pillows!
- I didn't like the fact that there was only continental breakfast, I expected a cooked breakfast or at least a choice, especially when the continental breakfast was £15, absolutely ridiculous money for cereal, toast and a boiled egg

Location perfect for transport and shopping
The inflated price which I guess was to take advantage of Valentine day and the rugby intwrnational.
Cozy rooms and great location. Staff nice and friendly too. The best check in/out times around and very central to great bars.
No got breakfast options. Lofts had a random tarpaulin cover over the full walls.
Location,interior,staff
The staff on check in were amazing, super friendly. The room was lovely and clean. That evening we got a bit chilly and I asked the receptionist about the heating, she offered me a little space heater and to come up and make sure or heating was switched on properly. The staff on check out/luggage claim were also so lovely! I would totally book again!
Nothing!
Location is excellent. Room modern and bed comfortable. Staff all friendly. Liked the array of different power sockets- European, usb etc.
All good.
Didn’t have breakfast. All staff very friendly, rooms clean and really attractive.
Nothing we disliked.
Excellent location.Friendly staffGood breakfast
Very central, well maintained and provides everything you need for a short stay.
Great location, super staff and clean
The cost was way over priced for the weekend we stayed versus the following weekend - definitely value for money for the other weekend but not worth over €500 for 2 nights room only
Breakfast-Could do with bowl of fresh fruit rather than pieces. It was all fresh.Location- excellent
Room far too hot. Did receive a fan but was too noisey for night.
Friendly staff, nice breakfast
Didn't get the city view we'd been told we had booked, instead a view of other windows around an inner courtyard. The wifi didn't work and the bathroom door didn't close properly.
Staff are wonderful and welcoming. Accommodation comfortable and clean. Excellent location
I felt the breakfast was a little expensive for what it offered. But that's only me. It's a really pleasant hotel.
If you're going to Edinburgh by train this is a great place to stay right opposite the station. Staff were very very good could not be more helpful. Room was clean and comfortable.
No cooked breakfast
Location, decor and size of rooms
