The staff was friendly, the food delicious and it was a great location. Even though there is a lively restaurant/bar on the ground floor, there was no noise noticeable in our room. I would absolutely recommend a stay at Rabble while visiting Edinburgh!

6/10 Good

We stayed on a Saturday night. It’s in the heart of Edinburgh so you would expect some noise from outside, however the sound of what seemed to bottles being tipped into glass recycling bins went on until after 1am. People singing and shouting outside went on until after 2am. The sound between rooms wasn’t great either, we could hear the voices of the couple next door to us. It is a lovely hotel and a great location and it was fine for one night, but be aware at weekends!

8/10 Very good

The atmosphere of the hotel was excellent, the restaurant and bar had very good food options. There was no lift and there was no extractor in the bathroom, so the room felt quite humid.
