Fantastic hotel very modern and trendy. Breakfast is amazing the best in Edinburgh. I upgraded to the balcony room which is great as the weather was lovely so we sat outside for a few drinks before evening meal which is rare in Edinburgh. Views are great and staff impeccable. Shops around are modern but easy walking distance to the castle and all the history in Edinburgh. Just across the road is the train station so no need for a taxi.

Room Cleanliness poor!
Hotel is a lovely new build, staff were friendly, rooms were really nice… but the cleanliness let it down… There were urine marks on the toilet floor, coffee stain on the bedding, the dust was thick, finger marks on glass and fridge door. The pillows were awful, bad night sleep. Luckily we were only there for one night! This let down the hotel and our experience staying there!

Great location for sights and tourism. Brand new hotel so great condition. Trendy decor and nice rooms. Very close to Waverley mainline station. Quality staff. Was great value for money at the price I got from Expedia, as was quoted considerably more elsewhere. Excellent table service/menu breakfast, but not great if you're in a hurry. But if on a weekend type break, enjoy! Limited charging and desk space if on a busy business break. But if there for tourism or personal visit then great value if you can get a good price.
