The Hoxton Edinburgh
Great hotel, rooms clean and nice. Decent part of town close to station and tram stop. Highlight would be the staff who were always helpful and polite, especially the breakfast team who were great for gluten free. The coffee was also excellent which is surprisingly unusual in hotels I find.
