The hotel itself was great. A small hotel in a great location. There is a club/bar underneath the hotel and since the hotel is so small, it was hard to sleep during the weekend. Not the hotel’s fault, but be aware.

The light switches were very difficult to figure out how to use. We had to ask for help from the front desk and even then it was difficult. I also wish that even though we didn’t have the most expensive room, we didn’t have to look over a rooftop directly into other buildings.

High noise level

This small hotel is an ideal location just off Saint Andrews Square and near several five-star restaurants. I have two nits to pick and one huge downside to mention. First, there was seldom anyone at the front desk, which meant if you wanted help you needed to go into the restaurant/bar. Second, the grab bar in the bathroom was on the wrong side of the tub, which meant you had to reach across the tub, almost falling in to grab the grab bar. Finally, on my third night there they had a private event with a live band. I returned to my room about 915 and the room was VIBRATING (not hyperbole). At 9:42 I walked down to the bar to inquire about the live band and was told they would stop at 9:30. I pointed out that it was 942 and she did see to it that the band stopped. But then there was a DJ. And the crowd was having a great time clapping and stomping their feet. I do not begrudge people having a good time I myself like to have a grand time, but the noise was intolerable. For that reason, I do not recommend this hotel overall.

Great place to stay in Edinburgh

Every room has its own individual styling - the Cairo room I was in had a lovely seating area, a desk to work on, a big comfy bed, and an enormous bath. The drinks and beakfast was great, and the location is perfect for exploring.

A lovely hotel. We had dinner there but the nightclub is the dinning room. Not a good place to be if you want a nice quiet place to have dinner. The crowd is young and music is blasting.

Won't go back

The noise from the street below prevented us from getting any sleep whatsoever. I assume this is due to the nightclub below the hotel and its patrons loitering outside until the hours of the early morning .

Lovely stay

Great for an overnight stay in Edinburgh at the weekend. Brilliant location and the room was really nicely done. The only issue to note was noise, although you couldn’t hear the bar music from the room on the third floor, you could hear other bars and people on the street outside well into the morning. Not an issue unless you’re a light sleeper

Maybe best to avoid Friday & Saturday nights

We were upgraded to the New York suite which was fab and much appreciated. The room was spacious, nice decor, excellent location. However, the biggest issue we had was that the basement nightclub music went on until 3am meaning we barely slept. Was not a peaceful night. We also booked a table at the bar as aware it can get really busy; the cocktails were lovely; however the service was very slow, and the drinks price list didn't reflect the actual prices. Cocktails have increased by 50p each it seems
