"The property was always neat and clean. The property staff paid attention to details and provided lots of helpful information about transportation, food options, and laundry services. The WiFi services were great and transportation stops were close by. Lovely and cozy guest house and the area around it."
"Easy check in, clean and well kept accommodations. Friendly and inclusive staff. Nifty old building. Nice vibes throughout. Convenient location.
I stayed in a private room so cannot speak for the dorms, however, our room was satisfactory, cool and comfy.
I stayed only 1 quick night so wasn’t able to enjoy any activities besides sleeping, but they seem to have schedules of things going on in (or around?) the hostel.
Would recommend if you want to stay close to the city centre and want to be...
"We stayed at this centrally located hotel during the Edinburgh Fringe festival. The hotel is ideally suited for either exploring the old town section of the city or the various venues of the festival. But the price of the location is that the lobby is very packed and busy with some of the festival venues located in the hotel. Even with a room in the rear of the hotel, we had noise issues in the morning with a waste removal truck in the car park.
Nevertheless, the proximity of the hotel to...
"Front desk staff was very friendly and very helpful
Room is very small and felt uncomfortable
Restaurant is attached and food is awesome
Very close to Livingston north railway station"
"Good food, well prepared. Comfortable beds and functional room. Helpful staff. Nice bar and outdoor seating area to enjoy. The staff were helpful and attentive. I would certainly recommend this hotel."
"Really nice stay in a great area. Several great cafes nearby. Walkable (but long, 30 min) to city center and easy access to public transportation.
Rooms were clean, staff was very friendly. Check in and out were super simple. Would definitely recommend!"
"We had a lovely time. From the moment we were greeted at reception on the first day till the day we left. Everyone was so nice and couldn’t have done enough for us. Our 2 dogs were made so welcome and our dining experience wasn’t reduced in any way because of them. Harriet should get a mention as nothing was too much trouble for her. It was also lovely to meet the owner Bill who made sure everything was running smoothly. We cannot empathise how fabulous the food was. Simply amazing. An excellent...
"Loved the location for a quick few days in Edinburgh. Close to Panda & Son's, Rose street, Grassmarket, Johnnie Walker and Edinburgh Castle. Staff made an awesome recommendation of the Sunday Straw Market. Extremely close and great experience!! Would definitely book again. "
"A wonderful location within quarter mile of the Royal Mile & the Castle - loads of bars, restaurants & music / comedy venues close by.
I won't stay anywhere else when visiting Edinburgh."
"Amazing opportunity to stay in a real castle with such a rich history. The staff, especially Jon, were outstanding. Everyone was so accommodating. It seems like they have been making constant improvements to the property. The spa closes early (6p) and several amenities in the spa were out of order. Be aware that the archery and falconry, although on the property, are run by a separate company, closes at 5p, and requires a reservation. The remote location is beautiful and quiet, but be...
"The staff were extremely kind and helpful, the area is quiet and just a short walk or tram away from the heart of the city. It was nice to be away from the noise of the city to sleep but still be close to explore in the day. It is an older heritage building but has everything you need to feel safe and rested."
