We had a most enjoyable stay.
Pros:

The staff were all wonderful: helpful, friendly, happy & efficient. It is was an ideal location, we walked to everything we wanted to see or do & plents of food options near by.

Cons:

The room was a bit small, nowhere to comfortably open up our big suitcases. The breakfast was rather expensive for what it was.

We did enjoy every minute of the time we spent in Edinburgh such a lovely city would definitely stay again and at the sa
Pros:

The location is excellent, straight opposite Waverley train station. Clean, the staff are very friendly, we were able to check in straight away even though we were early as a room was available.

Cons:

As we only used it for sleeping and we’re out all day into the night, it does seem a little expensive, if booking more than one night maybe a little discount would make it more affordable for people.

Top Lage, leckeres Frühstück, perfekt für erholsame Tage in Edinburgh
Pros:

Die Lage des Hotels ist super. Der Airlink Bus zum Flughafen in 5 Minuten erreichbar. Viele Sehenswürdigkeiten sind vom Hotel aus zu sehen und fußläufig zu erreichen. Frühstück hat gut geschmeckt, allerdings wären regionale Spezialitäten nochmals eine Bereicherung. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und das Zimmer ausreichend groß. Toll sind auch die Steckdosen, selbst wenn man seinen Adapter nicht dabei haben sollte. Ein weiterer kleiner Abzug von uns aufgrund des doch relativ hohen Preises.
Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt, danke für die schöne Zeit.

Perfect
Pros:

Great Location, very central but despite this surprisingly quiet at night. The room was generous in size and well appointed and really clean. The staff were all friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good with lots of locally sourced items.
