    inconsistent temperature
    poor storage

    Central location across from Waverley Station, stylish and modern design, high-quality hotel hair dryers

    The room temp is inconsistent, feeling stifling at times!!! Storage space is severely lacking, making longer stays a hassle!!! Soundproofing is minimal, leading to disturbances from the street and hallways!!! Toilets need functionality updates!!!

    pleasant stay with room for improvement

    The classic double room offered impressive comfort with a well-appointed bed that ensured a restful night. The high standard of cleanliness was noticeable throughout the room, making it a cozy retreat.

    The room lacked a city view, which would have enhanced the overall experience.

    excellent location
    helpful staff
    limited family amenities

    We had a fantastic time exploring the city, especially with the kids. The location is superb, just a short walk to the train station and all the shops. The staff allowed us early check-in, which was a lifesaver with four young ones.

    In my wife’s opinion, it would be great to have more family-friendly amenities in the room, like extra storage for kids' things.

    well-appointed bed
    excellent wifi performance
    dark room
    minor inconvenience

    Perfectly situated for exploring, just steps from the railway station and a scenic walk to the gardens. The room was spacious and comfortable, especially the well-appointed bed. the darkness in the room due to neighboring buildings was a minor inconvenience, requiring lights during the day. Cleanliness was on point, and WiFi performance was excellent.

    super clean

    will definitely go back there again

    Location was on point, just across from Waverley Station. The Classic Double Room had comfy beds, flat-screen TV, and a nice walk-in shower. Plus, tea and coffee in the room were a bonus. Room was super clean with good shower pressure. Staff were super friendly and helpful when needed.

    comfortable bedding
    helpful staff
    great view
    inadequate storage
    street noise
    poor ventilation

    I loved the location, just across from the train station, making it super easy to explore Edinburgh. The room provided a lovely view of Princes Street and was clean and comfortable with cozy bedding. Staff greeted me warmly and were incredibly helpful with recommendations. The bar area offered a nice space for relaxing. On the downside, the room lacked adequate storage options, making it tough to unpack. Some noise from the street at night was noticeable, and I had issues with the air conditioning that made the room a bit too warm. Breakfast, while decent, could use more variety. Better air circulation and increased storage would greatly enhance the experience.
