The hotel is comfortable, and right in the middle of the Royal Mile! We had window open, and there was some noise from the alley, but this was expected. It was interesting hearing all the different things going on 😀. Breakfast was good, but no meat. They ran out and apparently never brought more out while we were there...

The shower leaked out of the stall after each shower. The room was too warm, but the fans provided helped a lot!

Walkable to castle and royal mile. Parking not on premises. You have to walk a bit to a parking garage. That was inconvenient.

During Fringe Festival this is a very busy area. At the moment it’s complicated by closed streets and construction. If you are game for the party, this is a great place to start.

Close to everything. Clean. They state that they had air conditioning but it only pushed air around. Small rooms, not much area to move around. Restaurant next door was awesome with good entertainment every night.

Nice place to stay

I stayed at this hotel by myself and felt very safe. It is in the middle of everything, but my room was not loud at night. The hotel is well kept, the staff was friendly and their bar stays open late, which was great!

There were two negatives with our stay. 1. The room I stayed in faced the street entrance and was extremely noisy until late at night. 2. The room was very warm in the afternoon and evening. The windows would not open in the room fan unit was insufficient. To move the air. You either need to provide a large fan or make it possible to open the window for cool fresh air.

This is budget budget accommodation at a steep price in Edinburgh. It’s fine if you like simple but view it mainly as a shoe box simply to sleep in.

Sadly, of all the places we stayed in Scotland, your hotel was the only one that was disappointing. It was a combination of things. No fridge in the room, no airconditioning, and your picture online is receiving. Your photo makes it look much larger, which I suppose is the point. The other thing was, that even with the window closed, the noise from the homeless people below, bellowing constant swear words, and making noise well into the middle of the night, prevented us from getting any proper sleep. I purposely booked your hotel on the strength of your image, and location. Sadly, all it did was disappoint. Marc Sitler E-mail: esitler@rogers.com
