Review summary

sites

This hotel is highly regarded for its excellent central location, offering direct tram access from the airport right outside its doors, making it a prime choice for sightseers and theatre-goers attending events at the nearby Playhouse. Guests consistently highlight the friendly and helpful staff as a significant asset, contributing to a welcoming atmosphere. While the breakfast is a popular feature, its busy nature at peak times is frequently noted. The hotel's convenient position allows tourists to easily explore Edinburgh's main attractions on foot, including Princes Street, the Royal Mile, and Calton Hill. For a smoother experience, guests are advised to consider breakfast times to avoid crowds and be aware of the steps at the main entrance, which can be challenging with luggage or for those with mobility concerns.
