This hotel is only a 10 minute stroll from the centre, which was perfect, you can walk in and back easily. All Staff were perfect and helpful, we arrived early and they held our case, we were leaving late to fly back to Luton and again held our case, all done with a smile. Rooms were clean and had tea and coffee supplied, what more could you ask. There are leaflets in reception, a bar and an essentials shop too. Great value for money considering it was the start of the fringe.

This hotel is a dump. The carpets in the hallways are worn and dirty. The curtains in the rooms are frayed and dirty. I don’t expect spacious rooms in the middle of a city but these rooms were small. The rooms, although small, were clean-ish, albeit worn. We had to unplug the TV in order to charge two phones (the other plug was used for the fan.) We were on the bottom floor, and the wi-fi didn’t work in our room. The desk’s response: no one else said anything. The breakfast was a rip-off. We bought it two times for convenience. Yogurt, meat, eggs, prepackaged pastries. I wouldn’t have minded any of this had I not paid $400+ per night! The location was good, within a mile of all major Edinburgh sites, but I will never stay here again.

Not too far from city center this was our base point. The room was fairly clean, not too noisy, but we were there in the heat wave with no way to cool off (no A/C) and since the room was below street level opening the windows did not help. Also no lift so all luggage carried up/down stairs. The breakfast buffet offered was just OK. The staff were as helpful as they could be with a few difficulties we had.
