Vacations Close To Hermitage Castle

Great Nostalgic hotel, beautifully appointed rooms and the location was perfect to visit the city of Edinburgh.

Great location and helpful staff!

Great hotel, attached to a fun bar/restaurant, The Three Sisters. My only caution is not it is not smack in the middle of the old town, but I would definitely consider heading back.

Great location

The staff were friendly. The location is central, close to the Waverley train station and walking distance to so many things. The kitchen was well equipped. The laundry was convenient, although the machines are a little touchy and take forever to do a load. The apartment was nice and clean. The bed was a little hard however that is a personal preference. Our room had a nice interior view of the gardens and was quiet. Overall a great home base while in Edinburgh.

If 2.5 stars were an option, this is what I'd give it. Check-in was easy except for the fact the code that was provided in the email was incorrect. Fortunately, a kind person let us in and provided us with the code. We had to do the same fo a few others after us. The location is perfect on Young Street as we walked to all locations we visited in the city. The restroom was clean but the shampoo, and conditioner bottles had a strange ring of soap scum around them. We refrained from using them. The towels were clean but had a few stains. The comforter for the sofa bed had two large stains that appeared to be urine. Luckily, there was a second comforter in the closet that we were able to use. The mattress on the sofa bed was stiff but manageable. In the bedroom, the sheets were clean but had some staining. I looked at the mattress and put the sheets back because it looked dingy. This was not an eccomical stay by any means. Its was cheaper than a luxury stay and I would have expected better quality.

It was in a great location but we felt like the room we stayed in was a bit small
