Perfect for a quick visit to Edinburgh!
Pros:

Fantastic location in the city. Close to the Royal Mile as well as the shopping on Princes St - but mostly, just steps away from Waverly train station making it really easy with luggage. We booked a city view room and it didn’t disappoint! Everything was comfortable and no complaints for our layover stay.

Pros:

L'emplacement est vraiment optimal. Le petit déjeuner est bien achalandé et bon. Comme nous avions deux grosses valises, le réceptionniste nous a gentiment donné une chambre assez grande (car adaptée PMR).

Cons:

Bien que globalement propre, il y avait quelques cheveux sur le tapis de douche. D'autre part, nous avions une chambre adaptée PMR et le lit était assez dur et le lavabo était très petit et vraiment très bas. Enfin, il y avait un bruit dans le faux plafond un peu gênant la nuit. Le tout n'était pas trop embêtant mais pour le prix on s'attendrait à mieux.
