A great little hotel, tucked away close to the amenities at the eastern end of Princes Street. Our room and en-suite were spacious and well equipped, bed comfortable, staff were lovely and the cooked breakfast was wonderful. And all this at a price that was lower on Expedia than most of the "budget" hotels in the area.

It was my second stay in this hotel and I certainly will stay again. Quiet and comfortable rooms, friendly stuff and great location. Just one warning: some rooms have no elevator access and you will need to climb narrow spiral staircase with all your suitcases.

Lovely large room and bathroom. Nice but slightly tired decor in room but spotlessly clean. Very quiet despite proximity to transport links. On arrival we were concerned by large hole in reception area ceiling however we didn’t need to be as room was excellent. I would happily stay here if returning to Edinburgh as it is priced really reasonably. Overall great stay
