The location and the transport into town was great. The breakfast area and the breakfast itself was really good. Our room though was really tired, especially the bathroom. It had mould around the bathtub and the extractor fun wasn't working. Our rubbish wasn't emptied every day although the bin was full. The most important thing was that we booked a double room with a sofa bed for a family of 4 with the children being 16 and 12. The sofa bed wasn't made when we arrived at night and we had to wait for about an hour for someone to come. Also, it was really small and the duvet provided for that was for a single bed which meant that 2 teenage, adult size boys could not fit on this bed. The hotel's system should allow you to book these kind of rooms if you have toddlers and not teenagers. Unfortunately, the clients are not aware of the size of the sofa bed before booking the room.

We had booked for 3 (had to pay extra for the third person) room wasn’t set up for three and they kept taking our 3rd towel away. Of our whole month long trip this was our most expensive accommodation and it didn’t quite live up to the price. Not fully in city centre but the bus system near by was easy to figure out

Easily accessible by public transport so you didn’t have to take your car into the Old City and pay for parking. Staff were very friendly and the breakfast buffet had a great selection.

Stay was good, service in the bar was ok, food was not nice. I had the mussels which was in a nice sauce but the mussels themselves were dry and tough, the ham and cheese toastie was dripping in grease and the pizza had far too much cheese on it so was greasy and soggy

Fantastic Hotel!
Wonderful & friendly service! The location is perfect for easily and quickly traveling by bus to the tourist area of Edinburgh, without having to stay right in the middle of the crowds. Our room was clean and modern. There are plenty of outlets available, but bring your own adapters. The breakfast was amazing, with so many options! We ate dinner there on two evenings. The food was fresh and delicious. We would definitely stay here again!

Good room, paper thin walls
It was a little hard finding it but worth it. Disappointed that cash payment not available for food and bar and very disappointed parking was not included, discount offered though. Clean room but the noise from two rooms was very disappointing. No we didn’t say anything. We just had an extra early morning.

The room was lovely and clean. I had a problem with the parking machine but the staff came over and helped me. Breakfast was plentiful although I only had two slices of toast plus a coffee. Well worth the visit.

This property is situated out of the city but is on a bus route which is very convenient. Rooms very small but that seems to be all of UK & Europe, difficult to open luggage because of lack of space. As a single traveller I managed but not sure how two people would get on.

We were given a disabled room/bathroom, I have no recollection of requesting that when I booked online. The room had a strange smell which was like one of those candles people burn to hide tobacco smoke
