Adequate hotel for those needing proximity to the train station. Plenty of amenities nearby, though can subsequently be quite noisy at night. Room fine, if quite small, but basic.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Don’t stay here. Staff was rude. Especially the Russian. He will double charge your accommodation if there was a problem in the booking. I booked a “King-size bed.” Got less than a Queen-Sze. The universal breakfast is “available.” -Not complimentary. And for what it looked like, the breakfast wasn’t worth the price anyway. I DO NOT recommend this place.

This hotel was perfectly located for our trip. We were able to walk just about everywhere and there were bus stops and a train station right out front for those trips that were too far to walk. Only real down side of the place was the alley out back was hella noisy at night.

The location was fabulous - only a few steps away from Edinburgh Waverley train station. Very convenient. The room was clean and the staff was friendly and helpful. Our room was ready when we arrived a couple of hours early which was great and they were able to hold our suitcases for a couple of hours after we checked out - again very convenient. I would definitely stay there again.

You’re at the heart of it all - very easy to walk everywhere. The staff are very friendly, and the room was clean. Had all the amenities I needed - I was particularly worried about a hair dryer :)

This hotel couldn’t be more conveniently located. It’s literally within walking distance of everything… restaurants, shopping, sight seeing, Edinburgh castle, buses, etc. it was clean and quiet. We had a great view of the whole city from our room. The bar/restaurant is very nice with good views, and the staff was friendly. The only issue was that the water barely came out in the shower, and didn’t get very hot. However, I would definitely stay there again.

Lobby and lounge is lovely but the actual rooms you stay in are very small and run down. They obviously do not put any priority to the condition of the hotel room. Very disappointing. Would not recommend this hotel to friends.
