10/10 Exceptional

Incredible. Clean. Sade. Great location. Not a hotel to lounge in but great for a traveler who is out all day and wants to come back to a clean and well designed hotel.
Selena, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location and value

Very cool décor and great breakfast space. Super conveniently located to both Old Town and New Town. Close to public transit – especially airport tram and bus connections. Close walk to all of the main sights. Rooms were small but quiet with surprisingly thick doors. Breakfast spread was really nice – lots of options. Very clean and like new conditions. Good value for the cost.
Thor, 2-night trip

Two stays on either side of a tour out of Edinburgh. the hotel was in a great location, and really helped me out by holding some of our bags, while we were on the tour.
Amy, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great Location. Comfortable. Helpful Staff

Reception staff were very helpful. Hotel is clean and conveniently located. The room was not very large but was very well-arranged for usability and aesthetically pleasing. This was a good base of operations for our quick and busy visit to Edinburgh
