Very old tinny and uncorfotanle room

The room was really tinny, old and smelly. Some lights were broken. Beds were very uncomfortable. Having a shower was a problem, the water was really cold. Location is not too bad, there are plenty of busses nearby and if you are keen you can walk to the city centre. Will not come back there next time.

The Ryanair of Hotels

If you just want a bed and a bathroom to yourself, this is the place. If you want all your mod cons or can afford something better, go elsewhere. Carpets could probably do with a good clean, and the doors aren't very soundproof. My room in particular had an odd layout - the shower was separate from the bathroom. Not sure if this was just my room or if others were like that. Rooms generally seemed small and there is no lift - so don't come here with big suitcases. TV is fine, but the range of channels is poor (with no BBC and signal problems for many of the other channels). On the upside, the hotel is 15-20 mins walk from the train station and close to Leith too. Room was warm and reasonably well lit, shower was hot and the WiFi was fast on the one night I used it. Overall I found my stay at Edinburgh House Hotel satisfactory. I would recommend this hotel, just don't come expecting the world!

Cons: Renovations were going on so it was noise and we got the room right beside the stairs and next to reception so even worse.
