Big room bed could do better

Room was big loads of space however my double bed was two beds pushed together which is never a great sleeping experience. Bar service is very slow as it's not always manned.

Amazing hotel

Since a good stay at an amazing hotel. The staff were all lovely and helpful, particularly the gentleman serving breakfast. We had a premium room which was very spacious with a great shower. The fridge was stocked with complimentary drinks and food which was restocked each day. It is also in a great location, convenient for the train station and everything really. We will definitely come back again and recommend the hotel to others.

A bit away from the main touristy area lies the quiet Hotel Indigo. There’s a convenient tram that goes to/fro the airport. The shopping mall St James’ Quarters is behind. But to get to the Royal Mile is a slight trek. The hotel is a bit of a maze with lots of stairs and corridors; some parts have no lift access. The gym is woefully small and mostly cardio equipment—wish this could’ve been better. Service staff are nice and helpful.

This is probably one of the best hotel you can stay in Edinburgh - so accessible to everything . The Highest point scenic view calton hills is 7 min walk - trains is 7 min walk - mall is 5 min walk - hop on hop off bus 7 min walk - and the best one is tram to the airport 2 min walk . It’s like almost in front of the hotel - I’ll stay here again and well recommended - staff are very helpful and friendly.
