    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.

    7MargaretPosted on: 2-16-2026

    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.

    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.

    Excellent location.Friendly staffGood breakfast

    8JuliePosted on: 2-11-2026

    Very central, well maintained and provides everything you need for a short stay.

    8JulesPosted on: 2-11-2026

    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

    10PaulinePosted on: 2-11-2026

    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.

    7HelenPosted on: 2-9-2026

    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.

    10LadyPosted on: 2-8-2026

    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.

    10PhilipPosted on: 2-7-2026

    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
