The room was what we needed and a great location. It was clean and quiet. Staff at the reception desk were all helpful. We were able to check our bags after check out to take one of our classes we had booked. There was no breakfast/snacks included but there was a restaurant on location (which we did not try).

A lovely hotel located in the heart of Edinburgh! Close to the train, walkable to the hop-on-off tour busses, restaurants, grocery store and shopping. It could be a little noisy outside with emergency vehicle traffic at times but that is not the fault of the hotel at all! The staff were spectacular and very efficient. The only thing I thought was odd was that I had to dry my hair in the bedroom vs. the bathroom. Overall, highly recommend & would stay again!

Fantastic location for us- right off Waverley train station; yet was quiet at night. So much within walking distance. They take your luggage prior/after check out. Friendly staff and delicious toasties/VERY well made drinks at their bar. (Espresso martini & Moscow mule) - Very clean room and comfortable linens. Love the later checkout time. Would recommend Pep & Fodder blocks away for breakfast.
