We loved the convenient location, just a short walk from the train station and close to shops and tourist attractions. The room was comfortable and clean, and the restaurant downstairs served delicious breakfast. The staff were welcoming and went above and beyond to ensure a comforting stay.
Nothing at all.
Clean and comfortable rooms with great mattresses. Convenient location in the city center, close to attractions and public transportation. Friendly and helpful staff. Good breakfast options available nearby.
Nothing that we didn't like.
We had a fantastic stay! The hotel was spotlessly clean, and the facilities were top-notch.

The location was perfect - centrally located and within easy reach of Princes Street. We loved being able to explore the city center easily. The breakfast at the restaurant downstairs, Rabble, was fantastic. The staff were friendly and accommodating, and the food was delicious. The hotel facilities were great, with a common room where we could relax and enjoy complimentary coffee, tea, and other amenities. The cleanliness of the room was impressive, and the staff made sure everything was spotless.
Nothing to fault.
