Fantastic two night stay at this hotel. Large spacious rooms, nicely renovated and well equipped with fridge and oven/microwave. Super convenient location with tons of dining options around. Do note that there are very few parking spots with the hotel for 18 pounds a night.

Place was okay. Not terrible, but easily accessible via walking to Edinburgh’s most popular sites. Staff at check-in was not very helpful and borderline rude. Staff in the morning was much more helpful and nice.

We were in Edinburgh for one night and this was the perfect little spot to stay. It had a cozy feel but was very spacious. We loved the high ceilings! The staff were very nice and helpful. Only complaint would be the shower. It was an odd set up with the half door that allowed water onto the floor. We just laid a towel down to help catch the stray water. Would definitely stay here again.
