10/10

This was the perfect location for a quick visit to Edinburgh. Very easy access to the Waverly train station + perfect location to head up to the high street. (The next-door Advocate's Close stair way brings you directly to St. Giles Cathedral on the Royal Mile.) I'd happily book here again!

8/10

Overall a great location. Cumbersome to maneuver through the twists and turns and stairs with elderly parents to get to the elevator or reception restrooms. Breakfast was OK. Nice reception & bar area to hang out, have a drink or read. But the best part of this hotel is its location.

1-night trip

8/10

This is a really convenient hotel from the train station and the bus that brings you from the airport. It is also easy to get to the site seeing bus. It is an easy walk uphill to The Royal Mile. Near many restaurants and pubs. It is a little tired, but perfect for our one night stay in Edinburgh. The staff are really helpful, they go out of their way to make you feel comfortable and seen.

The hotel location is excellent!! Regarding the hotel room overall is very good; just the area of hang on clothes is too narrow and feel a little bit slippy in the shower area. I would recommend this hotel to my family and friends.
