We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Indigo in Edinburgh. It is in a quiet and nice area and very central. It was great that we could store our bags before check in and after check out so we could explore without them. We felt very welcome and our room was lovely. Would definitely stay here again.

Location is great, just behind the St James shopping centre and a stones throw away from Calton Hill and also the old town (10 mins walk). The room was nice and spacious. Breakfast was good with a selection of hot food to order and a continental buffet. I would stay again.
