Particularly good and unbeatable location, it was in front of a bus station. There was café Beetroot Sauvage, that I found within 5 minutes' walk of the hotel.

Quadruple room with diy bathroom. Smart design. Stunning, particularly good location adjacent to local restaurants, Edinburgh's old town, and bus stops.

The hotel's position was good and perfect, near Edinburgh's old town where you could simply walk to. Seafood restaurant The Pacific Fish Bar was located 5 minutes walk away.
We didn't like that there was lift missing.

Fairly clean and the staff was very kind. My room was gorgeous & attractive with a good cupboard, kettle, a full bed. Everything was great, I thoroughly enjoyed that. Magnificent central location near to South bridge and royal milr, and city centre and motorway. There was Jade Palace nearby to grab something to eat.

Accommodating staff and really delicious breakfast. There's a wide array of restaurants to choose from, like The Stables, set within 5 minutes walk or so. The bed was comfy, we greatly enjoyed it.
