Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh
Great location and close to station. Staff were lovely and offered Prosecco on arrival. Breakfast plenty of choice just hate machines for drinks, prefer the personal touch being older! Only issue was the bed being too firm which caused backache but only stayed one night.

The Resident Edinburgh
Lovely, helpful staff. The room was great for one night but would have been a bit small and stuffy for any longer. Good location once you know what you are doing regarding bus/tram/train for getting around. We stayed for a concert on that side of Edinburgh and it worked well for that. Little kitchen ...
