I only stayed one night for close proximity to Waverley for an early train the next morning. My room was facing an internal courtyard which was very quiet and perfect for sleep. The room and bathroom were both much larger than I expected after reading the reviews. Very conveniently located.

Location is excellent. The facilities are a little tired and could use a face lift. While it’s evident that certain improvements have recently been made to the common areas overall feel is still unwelcoming. Rooms are acceptable. Recommend they include shampoo and conditioner and a trash receptacle in both the bath and bed room.

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.
