This was the perfect location and a 5 minute walk to the train station and 1 block from the Royal Mile. Room was quite large and comfortable. Have to get use to not having face clothes in Europe. Would definitely recommend to anyone staying in Edinburgh

We took Bus 100 from the airport and only had to walk 1/2 block to the hotel, which was very centrally located! We easily walked to Edinburgh Castle, Royal Mile, restaurants, a bank for getting cash and our Europcar rental center. We arrived 3 hours early and the staff found us a room 1 hour early. The room had a great view and the best mattress of our trip. Overall a wonderful choice and we highly recommend this hotel.
