Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Very compact room but had what you needed for your stay. Was only here one evening and relatively close to major attractions as well as the train station - if you are in shape and not too much luggage can easily walk there. The front desk was across the street from our room and we had to walk down stairs to our room. The room was clean and the front doorman was nice. Would recommend, relatively budget friendly and good quality for americans (who tend to be used to larger rooms and more modern).

Stay was ok
The bathroom was not very clean I must say. Still hair from the prior guests and even little small hairs which was gross. No air conditioning and window did not open so in the summer, we were SUPER hot at night. Staff were friendly and helpful and breakfast was average. stay was good overall minus the dirty bathroom

The Cairn Hotel was a pleasant stay for my family and I. We were upgraded to a 3 bedroom apartment which had plenty of space. The staff were friendly and helpful at all times. There was a bit of miscommunication about the wifi at check in, however, it ended up working out just fine. I’d book again and recommend this hotel for a great stay in Edinburgh for all.

Clean, comfy and well located
I chose this hotel purely because of price - Edinburgh is incredibly expensive in the run up to the Summer. The hotel is well located (between 2 tram stops) and the service was more than acceptable. The lobby was a little small and felt cramped when we arrived as one family were occupying the sofas but not a major issue. It has a nice cosy bar also. The room was a little on the small side and only had a single bed but was relatively comfortable and more than adequate for one night.
