Hotel was going through some major renovations, but service and room was very nice, as was the quiet bar downstairs.
Mariko, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Excellent hotel on Princes Street, modern and stylish with conveniences and sights close by. Rail station is across the street but our room was surprisingly quiet! Friendly reception staff made us feel very welcome. Highly recommend

Ideal location, great staff
OWAIS, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The location is very convienent for the Royal mile and Edinburgh Waverly. Breakfast was good (continental with more options) but slightly pricey since we added it on. We were lucky that we were able to get right into our room at 9 am (which we didn’t expect but they had one open), It is clean and pretty with a comfortable bed. I would stay again.

8/10 Good

Friendly staff and very clean. Is well located next to necessary amenities and things to see. Very lovely location. Only complaint is that there is no fridge in the rooms. Would have at least loved a ice dispenser on the floors to accommodate that.
Jeni, 4-night trip

6/10 Okay

Staff were so friendly and helpful, location was amazing. Room was very basic (though nicely finished), and there were renovations going on so the floor seemed like a bit of a building site at times. Seemed very expensive for what it was - but I guess that’s Edinburgh in July for you.
John, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Place was very well located, walkable distance from all sightseeing locations. There is no parking at the hotel but there is public parking 5 minutes walking distance with plenty of space. Staff was very friendly and helpful , quick check in. Room was spacious and with air conditioner.
Diana Cecilia, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

Nice place slough, for what you get, even in the location, completely overpriced.
Meredith, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Wonderful location. No soundproofing in walls or windows of our room so stiff bed made for a rougher night.

Jose, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Hotel cutrently umder construction but did not hear any noise while staying there. Quiet, decent sized rooms. Located in a good part of town, a little off the very busy street but still within walking distance to most things. Nice added service of luggage starge for guests.
