Brilliant location
Location couldn’t be better, view of the Castle, within walking distance of the Royal Mile and all attractions. Worth paying for an upgraded room as view from front of the hotel is great. Work does start at 8 in the week at the building next door but not that bad. All staff were lovely and worth paying £12 for breakfast

Fantastic hotel
Stayed here with my daughter and could not fault the place. Rooms compact and clean. The bed was extremely comfortable. Would have liked a small fridge, however pretty minor In the scheme of things. Breakfast was delicious. Every member of staff were polite, helpful and cheerful. Want to give a shout out to the Scottish fella on reception who extremely helpful with recommendations. Didn't catch his name. Finally location was brilliant. 5 mins walk from Waverley station.

Fantastic location
Tucked away above Princes Street, the hotel is in an unassuming building but perfect location. Checking in was easy and the staff were very accommodating. It felt very clean and the bed was very comfortable, soft linen and a good shower. Couldn't ask for any more.

We booked last minute for december 28th. Our room was next to the air con for the building so was pretty noisy. The hotel was full so they couldnt movevus but the staff were really nice and helped out with earplugs etc Breakfast was good with a nice choice
Emily, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Major building works.
The hotel is very clean and the staff very professional and helpful. The breakfast extremely expensive if you pay on the day £19 but £11 if you book the day before ( I never know if I’ll be hungry the day before). I was woken up by heavy drilling from apparently building work being carried out next door. There was no notice on the website about this and I would definitely not recommend this hotel for that reason.
