The location was ideal for exploring. A fast walk to the castle and royal mile and bus stops a few feet from the door for any other exploring you may want to do. There are some great restaurants and a couple of groceries stores within a few hundred feet. The staff and the room itself were wonderful! Everything was very clean and everyone was so kind. We would definitely stay here again in the future!

Lovely place to stay in Edinburgh
I highly recommend this hotel. Location is perfect. Our room on the first floor was spacious, comfortable, clean. (Our family members staying on the top floor had a much smaller room, though.) Had a great view of the back garden and church steeple from the window. Very quiet considering you are in the middle of the city. Self check-in was easy. Staff was friendly and helpful. Wifi works great. No breakfast included.

It was a good walking distance to Olde Town - fine for us. Monica and staff were always helpful. Breakfast was adequate with good timing. Room always clean - down side is it was quite small. But we managed and we enjoyed our stay.
