10/10 Exceptional

Excellent hotel option

Very comfortable, spacious and modern room just a few blocks from restaurants, shops and the train. Easy check in and kind staff. Aside from having no lift (we were on the 3rd floor), it was perfect for our stay.

Lovely weekend in Edinburgh!

The hotel is in a good location within walking distance of Princes Street. It is well decorated, clean and the staff are very helpful. Although a bar is advertised, this is not in service.
Stephen, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

It's not really a hotel, it's more of a room rental in Edinburgh (the hotel has no amenities whatsoever, which is fine, though just a heads up). The price was insane though that clearly just had to do with it being Fringe. The person at the front was always kind. Quiet neighborhood.
Matthew, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent boutique hotel with large rooms, good size bathroom and everything you need. Good location just 10 mins from main train station and close to all the sites, restuarants and bars.
Chris, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Clean room with a comfortable bed. Good tea & coffee facilities though a couple more tea bags would not go amiss.

Poco criterio con sus huéspedes

La ubicación del hotel es excelente, pero en realidad no es hotel sino una casa grande. Mi padre con 86 años le han dado una habitación en la cuarta planta sin ascensor!!!.. es una gran falta de criterio!!!! Y fueron 4 días los que estuvo alojado. Eso de verdad es no tener criterio…..

Sehr zu empfehlen

Gute Lage, sowohl mit Tram oder zu Fuss. Neu renoviert. Sehr grosse Zimmer (bei mir herrliche Aussicht aud den Firth of Forth). Nachteil: kein Lift. Bis 2. Etage 50 Treppenstufen.

Fint hotellrum vilket trots allt är det viktigaste. Mkt enkelt hotell och med priserna som var i edinburgh var det ganska prisvärt i jämnförelse. Helt okej men inte mer

Très jolie chambre victorienne à 2 pas du centre.

L’hôtel est très bien situé et le personnel serviable. Ils nous ont porté notre valise à notre chambre ! Très grande, très confortable, dans le style victorien. Douche super également. L’hôtel a été entièrement refait à neuf très joliment. Dommage que l’espace PDJ n’était pas encore ouvert même si ce n’est pas un gros problème en centre ville. Le parking n’était pas non plus un gros challenge, le St James Quarter étant à 2 pas de là. Nous y avons garé notre voiture et visité tout Édimbourg à pied.
