The staff were very helpful and did things in a timely manner. Very quick to respond, and very nice. I had to pay a deposit when I checked in, but I got the deposit back very quickly after checking out. The room had a nice view. It was very comfortable, and I would definitely reserve a room in this same hotel if I happen to visit Edinburgh again.

Very unusual and interesting concept of the hotel. Quiet and comfortable, secure. The staff was great. We were pleased with a personal touch of the greetings we found on the desk. Another unusual but interesting thing was a guitar above the desk, and I played some songs, which was a nice touch. A gramophone with disks were also a nice touch for a generation X I beling to. A tasty beer and food in the bar. Central location, steps aside from main attractions.

The owners are incredibly friendly and welcoming, we felt home right away! We had a beautiful room with high ceilings and a large window overlooking the backyard (sipping a tea there in Edinburgh autumn was a dream). Very good choice for breakfast, available to take away if you have a day trip. You have 3/4 buses that can take you to the Old Town in less than 20 minutes, and Holyrood park is just 10 minutes walking away.
