6.6/10

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was great, right beside the reception and with easy access to the bus stop to get into the heart of Edinburgh. The staff were welcoming and tolerant, especially considering we were a group of lads on a stag do. However, the rooms were a bit disappointing, being in the attic meant it was a bit cold even with the provided heater, and the beds were not comfortable at all. Breakfast was hectic, but the best parts were the location and the friendly staff. Decent for the price paid.

7.6/10

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were spacious and offered a good opportunity for relaxation, but there was a lot of loud noise from other guests and even late-night doorbell ringing. Unfortunately, the temperature in the room was too cold for comfort, and the lack of tea and coffee replenishment was disappointing, especially when traveling with kids.

The staff, especially Katerina, were excellent - very helpful, friendly, and accommodating throughout my stay. Their hospitality truly stood out and made my experience memorable.

Location

The hotel's location was just what I was looking for - halfway between the zoo and the castle, making it convenient for exploring both. Additionally, the proximity to a bus stop for easy access to almost anywhere in Edinburgh was a major plus.

Dining

5.0

The dining experience was not the best. It was expensive and of poor quality, especially the bacon, and my morning was partly spoiled by badly behaved children left unsupervised. The overall quality of food left much to be desired.

Facilities

7.0

The hotel offered amenities like free car parking and was convenient for accessing attractions like the zoo, the ice hockey rink, and Princess Street. However, the lack of attention to noise insulation and room temperature affected the overall comfort of my stay.

7.6/10

I had a mix of experiences at this hotel. The rooms were tiny and smelled damp, but they had all the amenities I needed and were outside the main house. The service was friendly, but it could have been more welcoming and talkative, especially during breakfast. The location was excellent, close to public transport and within walking distance of the city center. The dining was nice, but there were limited options for breakfast. Overall, it was a decent stay with some ups and downs.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, just what I needed for a short stay, although they were a bit small with a low ceiling height. The service provided was a highlight with the staff being super helpful and attentive, going the extra mile on a few occasions. The location was perfect for our plans, conveniently close to Haymarket tram and with easy access to the city center. On the downside, the dining experience was subpar, with some disappointing food options, and the noise from staff walking by and being loud at times was a drawback.
