Staff was very friendly. It is a new hotel so they are still working on improvements to service. Tram to the city and airport is a two minute walk. Ten minute walk to the royal mile. Plenty of Cafe and pubs near by. Next time in Edinburgh we will definitely stay here. ##### Philip Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Richard Sep 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Very good, but NB no lift as it's a listed building ##### Richard Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jul 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 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. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Ricardo Oct 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities . ##### Ricardo Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daugherty Sep 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great old property. Our room had 12ft ceilings and was large and comfortable. Just far enough from Old Town to get away from main crowds. Plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. There’s a private on-site restaurant that was incredible for breakfast! All the sites are in walking distance. They were in the process of doing a remodel (late September) which is looking great. Otherwise they would’ve gotten 5 stars. Staff was available and attentive. I just reserve the 5 for the above and beyond stuff. ##### Daugherty Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael Aug 18, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Large room ##### Michael Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christopher Jul 31, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Other than the shower's water pressure being very low, everything was perfect. Good and clean room, comfortable bed, nice view (from fourth floor in my case), and St Andrew's Square with bus station (and Waverley train station shortly behind that) is right around the corner. ##### Christopher Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary Aug 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Centrally located. Close to both bus and train station. Most Edfringe venues are within a 20min walk. Staff kindly facilitated a move to the sister hotel The Albany as there was a noise issue in the booked room. The staff at the albany were great and many thanks to the gentleman who helped with the move. Would def recommend. ##### Mary Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Dylan Sep 7, 2025 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities Very good location and ideal for getting into town. However there was a bug on the bed which put us off, then found one of the pillows had loads of stains on. Our room was right next to public toilets in the hotel which means you can hear the doors and flushes. The shower did not feel private as there was no blinds in the bathroom and the shower was opposite other buildings. You could also hear staff and guests talking and coming up and down the stairs all night. ##### Dylan Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jirat Sep 11, 2025 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities No elevator. Dont bring heavy luggage at all or you gonna get bad backpain ##### Jirat Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jack Aug 9, 2025 Liked: Staff & service I booked 2 separate consecutive one night’s stays. Night 1 was excellent with a nice room but a long walk up 4 or 5 floors (without an elevator). Night two was a trip down 2 floors underground and I encountered dust and various flying insects … not a pleasing room. The rooms were functional and the entire place had new carpet. I didn’t like being moved from the penthouse to the dungeon, but I did make 2 separate reservations and they must have run out of good rooms for my second night … although I did request (twice) at check in to not be moved … they just smiled and nodded … and then ignored my request. In conclusion, I might stay here again but it would require me knowing what room I’m getting and I don’t think that’s possible to know that in advance. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/e2de0ee4-970d-4ba2-a453-b476367490de-1754749104423.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2cfa93ae-abac-4b63-ad47-2140d4edaca3-1754749099093.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8e5e8ab4-af5b-4b08-9659-09ecc30fe26c-1754749110710.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/32cbee3d-4289-456d-8547-ea243ff79098-1754749103380.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jack Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mikael Olof Oct 4, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Rummet städades varje dag.
