Good place in a questionable location. So close to High street and wonderful restaurants and coffee places and yet surrounded by graffiti. Not easy to walk to with a suitcase from public transport. Large age range of guests, yet geared more to the younger generation. My room was large, clean and pleasant but next to bar with music playing until 11:00 p.m.

We have been travelling for more than 40 years, and my wife and I both agree, that this is possibly the best place we've stayed. Modern and clean rooms, and a short walk to the Royal Mile. There is also a great bar/restaurant downstairs.

The hotel appears to be right next to a nightclub that was open till 1:30 on a Friday. We had an early train to catch the next morning and getting good sleep as we wanted to was very difficult. Aside from that the rooms were well equipped and clean.

If you’re looking for a party, this is the hotel for you! Music in the evenings, big screen watching of sports events, lots of young people hanging out. If you’re looking for a quiet night’s rest, suggest you avoid this place as the music goes late into the evening.

Great base
Perfect place to use as a base for exploring. Next door to a very lively bar so don’t expect perfect quiet. Though we managed to sleep no problem.
