Positives Staff very helpful. Evening meal was excellent, as was breakfast. The room had a full sized bath with copious hot water. A TV that I could plug headphones into. Enough workspace on the desk. A mug not a cup with quality tea and coffee (no biscuits). Negatives. The hotel is closing down in 2016. The room needed a little maintenance, i.e. the window would not fully shut, the bathroom light bulb was out, the wardrobe doors did not shut. I would have gone back next year if it was going to remain open. ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Nov 14, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort Disliked: Staff & service Had to wait a while then go looking for a staff member to order at the bar and then had to go looking again to pay for the meal... ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### david, Rochdale Nov 14, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort Disliked: Staff & service #### Basic but good. .. Excellent location for high street choice of eateries. Hotel is now room only - no evening meal or breakfast. . I had room 6 and with the Indian restaurant below and outside the window was noisy, I travel with rear plus so no problem. All in all - you get what you pay for and this was good for what I wanted, would I use again - yes. .. Godots restaurant 2 mins walk up the hill is fantastic. David ##### david ### 8/10 Good #### Joe Nov 10, 2015 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Nice hotel, few minor problems Stayed here for 2 nights and found it very nice at first glance. However, after being there for a few hours I found a few odd bits had not been cleaned from the previous occupants including a dental floss stick. Also, at first glance it seemed like a good sized room but when it came to its functionality (ie getting ready) it was noticeably cramped. Apart from this all was good ##### Joe ### 8/10 Good #### Sara Nov 2, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Room comfort ##### Sara ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Nov 2, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Easy to get to city centre by bus.

Man hat direkt vor der Tür eine Bushaltestellen von dort ist man im Handumdrehen in der Stadt. Supermärkte und Restaurants sind auch gut zu Fuß zu erreichen. Zum Hotel selbst, gut, günstig und nettes Personal. Wer was anderes denkt sollte sich ein Luxushotel suchen. Die Betten sind Top uns jeden Tag bei bezogen es gibt tv und W-Lan . Bei meinem nächsten Besuch in Edinburgh würde ich dies Hotel wieder nehmen. ##### Titus ### 10/10 Excellent #### NIKOLAOS Sep 27, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### NIKOLAOS ### 8/10 Good #### Per Holm, Herlev, DK Sep 26, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Rigtig god valuta for pengene Meget behageligt sted, men ligger i et lidt anonymt område - dog ikke så langt fra centrum ##### Per Holm ### 6/10 Okay #### Rohan Sep 23, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Room comfort ##### Rohan ### 8/10 Good #### CLAUDIA, Cd. de México Sep 21, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Clean hotel a little bit far from downtown Two things I disliked of this hotel: 1.There was no lift available to go up to my room. 2.The "double bed" was in fact two single beds put togheter so it was terribly uncomfortale to sleep in the middle of it therefore I had to sleep in the edge as if in one single bed. ##### CLAUDIA ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Sep 19, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### gut gelegenes Hotel mit guten Zimmern Die Begrüßung im Hotel war freundlich, der Service hervorragend. Vom Hotel aus ist man zu Fuß in ca 15min in der High Street - wer möchte kann auch direkt mit dem Bus fahren. Das Hotelzimmer war klein aber fein. Ein Stuhl, ein kleiner Tisch, ein sehr bequemes Doppelbett, ein Schrank und kleines, aber ausreichendes Bad. Darüber hinaus gibt es eine Bar und ein Restaurant, die ich aber beide nicht probiert habe, da ich in der Stadt gegessen habe. Insgesamt kein Luxushotel, aber für den Abend und Nacht vollkommen ausreichend. Das WLAN im Zimmer war allerdings etwas wackelig. Je nach Position im Raum war der Empfang ok, oder aber nicht vorhanden. Zum Checken von Mails reicht's, aber für mehr wird es wohl nicht reichen. ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Catherine, Montreal Sep 19, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great location, close to attractions.

They were welcoming and so incredibly friendly and helpful with what we needed and how to get around the city. The rooms were cute but on the small side. It was a great location to bus stops and not far from the city centre. I would highly recommend. ##### m ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Travelodge Edinburgh Central Queen Street](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Edinburgh-Central-Queen-Street.h4924301.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Grand Hotel & Spa, Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Sheraton-Grand-Hotel-Spa.h15554.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Edinburgh Carlton](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Hilton-Edinburgh-Carlton.h1648.Hotel-Information) > > [Motel One Edinburgh - Royal](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Motel-One-Edinburgh-Royal.h5333965.Hotel-Information) > > [Apex Waterloo Place Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Apex-Waterloo-Place-Hotel.h2278092.Hotel-Information) > > [Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Apex-City-Of-Edinburgh-Hotel.h800968.Hotel-Information) > > [The Balmoral Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Balmoral-Hotel.h9339.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Edinburgh-Marriott-Hotel.h873944.Hotel-Information) > > [Point A Hotel Edinburgh Haymarket](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Point-A-Hotel-Edinburgh-Haymarket.h37166264.Hotel-Information) > > [Aparthotel Adagio Edinburgh Royal Mile](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Aparthotel-Adagio-Edinburgh-Royal-Mile.h16281979.Hotel-Information) > > [Old Town Chambers, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Cheval-Old-Town-Chambers.h6175181.Hotel-Information) > > [Ten Hill Place](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Ten-Hill-Place.h1535542.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Blu Hotel, Edinburgh City Centre](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Hotel.h4270.Hotel-Information) > > [Market Street Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Market-Street-Hotel.h29507352.Hotel-Information) > > [The Scotsman Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Scotsman-Hotel.h570820.Hotel-Information) > > [Wilde Aparthotels, Edinburgh, Grassmarket](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Wilde-Apartments-By-Staycity-Grassmarket.h39822833.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental Edinburgh The George by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-InterContinental-Edinburgh-The-George.h20436.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis Styles Edinburgh Centre St Andrew Square](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Ibis-Styles-Edinburgh-Centre-St-Andrew-Square.h7841147.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge - Royal Mile](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Ibis-Edinburgh-Centre-South-Bridge-Royal-Mile.h6793484.Hotel-Information) > > [Eden Locke](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Eden-Locke.h17859332.Hotel-Information) > > [The Caledonian Edinburgh, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-The-Caledonian-Edinburgh.h4198.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis Edinburgh Centre Royal Mile – Hunter Square](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Ibis-Edinburgh-Centre-Royal-Mile-Hunter-Square.h200875.Hotel-Information) > > [Holyrood Aparthotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Holyrood-Aparthotel.h561406.Hotel-Information) > > [Fraser Suites Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Fraser-Suites-Edinburgh.h2278102.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel Edinburgh Centre](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Novotel-Edinburgh-Centre.h982662.Hotel-Information) > > [Apex Grassmarket Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Apex-Grassmarket-Hotel.h62750.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Hotel Edinburgh Haymarket](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Leonardo-Royal-Edinburgh-Haymarket.h4035314.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express - Edinburgh City Centre by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Edinburgh-City-Centre.h1088215.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Collection Hotel, Royal Mile Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Radisson-Collection-Hotel.h2775480.Hotel-Information) > > [Kimpton Charlotte Square by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Kimpton-Charlotte-Square-Hotel.h571654.Hotel-Information)
