I was extremely pleased with this hotel. The location was phenomenal for a tourist -- just down the street from Grassmarket and a short walk from there to Princess Street, the castle, Royal Mile, etc. In the other directions were quieter but still active neighborhoods with endless options for food and drinks. The hotel itself was a bit dated but well maintained. I was pleasantly surprised with how quiet the room was, despite my being on the ground floor right up against the reception area. I would stay here again in a heartbeat for my next visit.
