In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths
3 reasons to book- Location score of 9/10 — Guests repeatedly call out the easy walk to attractions, Princes Street, and the city centre. It’s also close to Haymarket railway station, per one review.
- Helpful, friendly staff — The team is a recurring highlight—reviewers mention check-in, directions, luggage storage, and overall attentiveness.
- Pets welcome — The hotel allows pets and provides pet amenities, which is a plus for travellers with animals.
–
Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Breakfast service ends early — One guest notes breakfast stops at 9:30 every day, including Sundays, which they felt was too early.
- Rooms can be small and noisy — A reviewer described a room as too small and noisy, though another said the room was spacious compared to similar hotels—so it varies by room type.
- Dining rating lags other categories — The dining score is 7/10, the lowest of the four categories, and one guest called the breakfast terrible.
