In brief
What works, what to weigh
+

- Clean, well-kept rooms — Guests consistently describe the rooms as clean, tidy, and comfortable, with new bathroom fixtures and good lighting.
- Friendly and helpful staff — The team is regularly highlighted for being professional, welcoming, and informative, with special mention of assistance with luggage storage.

–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Above a nightclub — The property sits above a nightclub, which could mean noise at night for light sleepers.
- Dining rating is middling — While breakfast is offered, the dining experience scores lower than other categories, suggesting it's not a highlight.
- Compact rooms with bunk beds — Some rooms are efficient and use bunk beds, which may not suit everyone — one guest simply noted 'the rooms with bunk beds...' implying a mixed feeling.
- No pets allowed — The hotel does not accept pets, so travellers with animals need to look elsewhere.

8.4Verified guest“Excellent location right next to Princes Street. The staff were professional and friendly, and they looked after our bags. My third-floor room was quiet, clean, and had everything I needed — great value for a central hotel over New Year.”
8.4Verified guest“The hotel was great and I liked the streets of Edinburgh. Staff were informative. The room was cheap and felt huge. Continental breakfast had a nice variety. The property is very central, above a nightclub, and a short walk to shops, tourist spots, buses, the Airlink 100, and the tram. The view was exceptionally good, and the service was fantastic.”
