This place worked great for our overnight in Edinburgh. Staff at check in was very helpful. We had a 4am leave to the airport and they set up a taxi for us - no problem. Easy walk to tons of pubs and restaurants. Room we had was small but we were only there for a few hours so no big deal.

The one issue is that a taxi cannot pick you up or drop you off outside the property. But staff are happy to call a taxi and it collects you avout 100 metres away at the corner.

The property Is in a good location and is within walking distance of Waverley Train station and bus station. There are many restaurants and shops for all tastes as expected from any large city. The hotel itself could do with some renovation and building work in certain areas, but it does a great hot breakfast in the mornings and the staff are great and attentive to all your needs.

We used this hotel as our home base, coming and going for three different stays during a two week period when we were not on a Rabbie’s Tour out and about in Scotland. Its location was superb for our purposes, daily breakfast choices were excellent, and staff was quite helpful. The three rooms were consistently terrific: clean, spacious, bright and cheerful, and comfortable.
