Fantastic hotel

Stayed here with my daughter and could not fault the place. Rooms compact and clean. The bed was extremely comfortable. Would have liked a small fridge, however pretty minor In the scheme of things. Breakfast was delicious. Every member of staff were polite, helpful and cheerful. Want to give a shout out to the Scottish fella on reception who extremely helpful with recommendations. Didn't catch his name. Finally location was brilliant. 5 mins walk from Waverley station.

Brilliant location

Location couldn’t be better, view of the Castle, within walking distance of the Royal Mile and all attractions. Worth paying for an upgraded room as view from front of the hotel is great. Work does start at 8 in the week at the building next door but not that bad. All staff were lovely and worth paying £12 for breakfast
