Amazing service and room, the restock on shortbread biscuits really topped it off. My guy at the reception was great for information and helping us out. The hotel location is perfect, right next to victoria street and when you step outside you have a clear view of the castle. The facilities are good, with a sauna and swimming pool nearby. Only thing I would mention is the shower temperature not being above luke warm but that’s personal preference. Would highly recommend this hotel.

Great location in the heart of the Grassmarket with everything close by. The hotel sits a little low so there is no real view of the castle, but the convenience of the area more than makes up for it. Amenities were good and thoughtfully put together. The little rubber duck for bath time was a charming touch and the room itself was clean, comfortable and well equipped. I really appreciated the hotel’s sustainability approach, especially the way they manage water use. It is encouraging to see a hotel taking practical steps to reduce its environmental impact. Overall, a comfortable stay in a brilliant central spot with some lovely small touches.

Location is superb! Nice service as well but the only downside is that the walls are pretty thin, so when people walk outside, you can hear it clearly. It’s very near to Vennel, and we could see the castle from our room.

I had a great stay in this hotel. The check-in process was fast and staff was helpful. The room is spacious and comfortable. It has a large bed and toilet. I can open 2 luggages at ease with enough space. It’s in old town area and require 15-min walk from the train station. I’d recommend this hotel to all travellers!

Great hotel in a fabulous location. Only a minute's walk to the well photographed picturesque Victoria Street and then a little bit further to the castle. The Grassmarket area is lively with bars and eateries and had a market on while we were there at the weekend. The hotel is very clean and well presented. The breakfast was amazing and had beautiful views out to the castle. The staff are all very helpful. Rooms are comfortable and warm. It didn't have a bar or restaurant, but it's sister hotel just 10 seconds walk away, had both these and a pool which guests could use. I highly recommend the hotel.

The hotel room had a view of Edinburgh Castle, which was amazing! Besides the standard breakfast items, we could also order an additional hot meal every day, which was a nice touch. The hotel's location is also very convenient for getting around. I really enjoyed Edinburgh and would definitely consider staying at this hotel again on my next visit.
