Smelly room
Staff were nice and friendly and breakfast was decent with a convenient location. However the room ruined the experience for me. We booked a standard room. At no moment in time it was said that this could be an underground room. Room was dark, noisy and smelled like bathroom pipes. Not at all the quality expected when we pay as much as we did.

If it weren’t for the two workers at reception I would have left immediately. There was no air conditioning in our room and the windows didn’t open so by the time we left there were two small fans in the room. Sadly I believe the condition of the air got me and my travel partner sick with 5 more days of travel to take. I can’t stress enough how incredible and understanding the staff was but the actually living situation was below average.

Amazing stay!
The room was absolutely stunning. Had a vintage feel but yet so cozy. Everyone was so kind especially the person checking us in. She was so informative and so kind to my family and I. We loved the customer service at this location and will highly recommend to anyone. Perfect location as well. We were in the center of it all!

Super for a few nights - great location!
Overall, we were very happy with our three-night stay at this hotel. The location is excellent - central but off the main drag so it was quiet in the evening. Our room was really spacious and had just enough furniture for comfort. The bed was very comfortable; in fact, it was the best night's sleep I've experienced in a hotel for quite some time. The decor was simple, but fine. The bathroom was fully kitted out and big enough. We had a bath with a shower over it, which was fine for us but may be a consideration for those with accessibility issues. Slight grumbles include that the bathroom had some black mould on the ceiling and the mirror was very rusty (not a good look!). Not really a negative, but maybe something that could be improved is the outside areas. Our room was on the lower ground floor and the window looked out onto a very small close with stairs leading up to the terraced gardens. The close is seriously neglected, with a lot of rubbish just lying around. It wouldn't take much to tidy this small area up and stick in a couple of flower pots to cheer it up a bit. There is also huge potential with the larger garden area - it all feels a bit neglected and tired - a real missed opportunity to make the hotel feel like a more boutique/luxury experience.

Stayed for three nights on a weekday visit to Edinburgh. The hotel is fifteen minutes walk from Princes Street and Waverley Station, but on a quiet road overlooking a small park. Very clean and well appointed, friendly staff and good value.

We loved the warm welcome given to our dogs, and the sweet treats for us. The room was pristine and the beds very comfortable. We were very pleased to be able to stroll to the Playhouse in 10 minutes. The location is excellent. Monday parking after 8:30 was £4.00 an hour for up to 4 hours. The other downside was that the room was chilly despite our efforts to turn up the temperature. Otherwise a pleasant guest experience.
