Location and transport accessibility. Very friendly staff.
Bedroom faced main road and whilst earplugs are provided with a note that 'noise is everywhere' and cognisant that it is a busy city together with double glazed windows, it really was traffic noisy late and early. Would have been good to have been informed ahead of this or when booking so that alternatives or a request for a rear room could have been sought. The room was very cold even with the temperature turned up and no spare blankets provided, only dressing gowns. The outer window was slightly open for ventilation but not reachable to close. The bed was as hard as a table top and would benefit from additional mattress toppers as too the supply of variable pillow firmness. The ones provided were like sleeping on rock. A thick autumn/winter blanket on the bed would be a good addition. The TV did not have accessible streaming from own account. The staff were extremely friendly and the location is walkable from Waverly station, very close to trams/buses and a great position in which to explore other areas. It is behind busy Princes Street too. We booked for one night and this is a good hotel choice overall. Whilst mattress support is individual, a few adjustments would make comfort even better.

Ideal location. A bit remote but yet at a walking distance from most attractions. The room was neatly decorated, quite spacious and the bed was comfortable.
An upgrade to the breakfast buffet. Offer more variety of options.

We upgraded to a premium king room. It was large and elegant, with 2 small chaise longe, lots of storage, a bar fridge, great air conditioning, and a spacious shower and bathroom. Excellent location 10 mins walk from Waverley train station, the Royal Mile and trams to Princes St. Reception staff were very helpful and accommodating.
For what we paid (almost $A1000 a night) we would've have liked the broken lamps to have been fixed. The King bed was 2 single beds pushed together with either very cheap or very old mattresses. The bed (s) was uncomfortable We had to ask for more pillows as the thin feather pillows were inadequate. In a tourist hotspot like Edinburgh hotels know they can get away with this.

The location was perfect. We easily reached all points of interest (museums, restaurants, parks)by walking. The staff was delightful — attentive, warm, and took a genuine interest in us. The breakfast options were varied and delicious; the staff, again, were attentive and personable. Thank you!
