From start to finish the stay was excellent. It is a really central location and offers an affordable option.
I was staying for 2 nights due to a conference at the ICCE. I had a number of boxes posted to the hotel ahead of time, which they kept securely until
I arrived.
All the staff were very friendly and super helpful!
I would return again and definitely recommend.

Great base for exploring Edinburgh
Clean and comfortable rooms. Big fan of the shower!
Revolve bar was a great place to grab a coffee to start the day and a beer for the end.
