Convenient location for walking the harbour ,by the river and close to the shops and bus stops
"I booked this hotel for a trip to Scotland with my adult children without knowing much about the area. Were we ever amazed to arrive and have Edinburgh castle across the way with a view of the castle from our window. Walkable to tons of shops and restaurants. Absolutely wonderful helpful staff. So friendly. Highly recommend this hotel! "
"Fantastic location to Edinburgh Airport…just a short 5 min walk along a paved path to terminal. Opposite car rental return, so ideal. Room was exceptionally quiet. Good food selection at breakfast but a more limited dinner option. Buses to city centre from terminal. "
