Very nice location and a good spot. A little loud at night and early morning - you are very close to a heavy traffic area with a lot of people using the transportation system for work. Beds are so firm. If you're a walker like me, the bed made the soreness so much worse. Otherwise a very convenient walk to most things you'd want to explore as a tourist and not too far from some great food off the beaten path.

This was our second stay at Parliament House and we were not disappointed. Excellent location to the train station, downtown and not far from the Royal Mile - it is a great spot with large rooms to explore Edinburgh. Staff is great and very helpful with pouring their whiskey selection in the lobby. Even better than the whiskey is the shortbread provided in the room to enjoy. Highly recommended!

Really super hotel, will stay again. However, some staff at breakfast were not well trained. Rather brusque, no idea how to serve at the table. Banging plates down on the table, collecting plate from the table by leaning over from one corner to another. Also housekeeping excellent on 3 days, poor one one. Will definitely stay again but only had breakfast there on one day due to the poor service

Sightseeing trip

Great location for sightseeing and close to the train station. Its situated just off the main street in the New Town which was perfect for us. The reception staff were friendly and welcoming and the open fire was a lovely touch, especially in February when we visited! Our room was tastefully decorated, very clean and lovely and warm. We will definitely stay here on our future trips to the lovely city of Edinburgh
