Great location, close to the Royal Mike and many restaurants. Our room was very spacious with a nice sitting area. There was ample counter space in the bathroom. Friendly staff.
One elevator was not running which meant long waits for the one that was operating

Hotel ideally located close to city centre (10 minute walk) and Waverly train station, Enterprise rental car pick-up, and hop-on-hop-off bus is on the same street. Calton Hill is just up the street.

We liked the size of the room and the bathroom was really nice.
Our room overlooked an alley and trash. The elevator was broken so we had to walk up and down 5 flights of steps anytime we arrived or left the building so that was annoying.

Good
Check in was smooth and staff was friendly.
Only one elevator was working and it was very crowded. I don't like the breakfast setup with only a flat price. I like to eat smaller amounts and therefore an a la carte menu works best .Also, there was no concierge to help with planning sightseeing ! The bed mattress was a little to firm!

The location was amazing, and the staff was nice.
They put us originally on the 4th floor the same day the rest of the family booked on the 10th floor. The problem was the 4th floor is very close to the neighboring bar and trash bins (which were picked up early morning). We requested to move because even if the windows were closed anything below the 7th floor from my experience was too close to outside noise. Also the next room we moved to have a backup in the shower, so they had to snake the drain....

We chose this hotel because of its proximity to Waverly station. We discovered when leaving that there is an underground tunnel that connects the hotel to the train station and avoids the street congestion. This was very helpful when maneuvering luggage. Rooms were clean, comfortable, spacious, and had all expected amenities. I had only one minor problem, and a staff member addressed it within a few minutes of my call to the front desk. We did not eat breakfast there. Highly recommend!
No complaints at all.

The location was perfect for travel and touring.
The “tour” breakfast was chaotic. Understandable but, did not flow well. Easy fix with some small revamps
