Unbelievably well located just steps from the Haymarket train station and bus stops that take you to and from the airport. It's also walking distance to all the major sights. Rooms are small, but luckily we didn't spend much time there.

The location is top-notch: the city centre is easily reachable on foot, and public transport to the airport (24/7!) and other areas of the city is located just in front of the hotel. The service was outstanding, particularly Marco, who went above and beyond with his professional and friendly attitude. We are really satisfied with our stay and would definitely recommend this hotel to others.

This hotel is in a fantastic location in Haymarket. ScotRail and the tram are both right across the street. Many great restaurants are nearby. My room at the hotel was nice and clean. I was staying by myself so the room size was perfect for me. My particular room would be tight for two people though because the bed was very close to the wall where the tv was and tight to walk around. I could hear the tram outside, but it didn’t bother me and I didn’t hear it while sleeping. Overall, a nice room for a good price.

Elevator is out of service and remaining one is very slow. Rooms are fine (small but clean) but no storage at all in the room or the bathroom. They leave your bath towels on a shelf by the front door. Location is convenient across the street from the station.

Great experience - I see lots of mixed reviews but that wasn't our experience. Rooms are small but that was clearly called out in the description and all you need for a city break. The only minor quibble is the shower ran out of hot water in the morning but that's not uncommon in hotels and I should have just gotten up earlier.

Unfortunately, I had to check out a day early for a family emergency and I found amazing support from the reception staff. Rania and her colleague (didn’t catch his name) helped me quickly and efficiently book an emergency flight to London and made me feel not alone in a very stressful - life and death - situation. This was not part of their “job description” but they were so kind and helpful. I will not forget their kindness. Thank you.

The property had just reopened the day we got in. It was evident the new management team is taking pride in the hotel and making guests feel welcomed and at home. It was easy walking distance to multiple modes of transportation and a straight walk to the city center which made it very easy to access a lot of Edinburgh.

The rooms need to be cleaned and specially the restroom. Also, there were problems with the plumbing system so maintenance had to be called constantly. Also, during the middle of the night alarms were off for no reason. Scary to wake up in the middle of the night thinking something is happening.

The staffs were just in the wrong career. The owner was in the wrong business. If you are looking for poor service you have come to the right place. My room was freezing for 2 nights and 26 c on the 3rd night. No one cares. Worse, I have no way to prove they actually did it on purpose.

An OK, passable property but the rooms are dated and the the poor quality of aircon during a heatwave leaves a lot to be desired. One lift out of service without signs indicates that maybe it happens a lot and for a hotel with 9 floors was frustrating. Good location for Haymarket Station and the staff were pleasant

Was more or less what we expected: a couple affordable nights in Edinburgh in which we just needed a place to crash, with emphasis on location and transit links to the airport. PROS: friendly and responsive staff at every turn. Location. Haymarket stop for bus, tram, train. Comfortable bed. Good free coffee provided at reception. CONS: dirty bathroom, esp. the shower; shower was clogged and would not drain so we had to have maintenance come. NOISE. Construction work in courtyard began, no joke, at 06:00 on a Sunday! There was a weird, loud, erratic hum through the building all night--not any kind of usual heating/cooling system. No idea, but it was maddening.
