I had a good stay overall! The room was small, but it was manageable and had everything I needed for a short stay. The best part was the location, as everything was close by and easy to get to. Overall, a practical choice for a short visit!
We had a great view of the castle. Obviously the rooms are tiny (well advertised) but with a small piece of luggage and no mobility issues the hotel is very central for an overnight or two.
Staff very friendly!
Clean place. Very small, difficult to move around in, and barely any space for luggage. Bed was stiff. Location was fantastic. Staff was helpful and lovely.
Great central location, across the street from Edinburgh Castle. Early check-in (for a fee) was helpful for our plans for arrival day. Loved the water pressure in the shower and the nightlight feature in room.
This is a centrally located hotel close to some great restaurants and sights but is very basic. All of the rooms are upstairs and there is no lift so you need to carry your case up several flights of stairs. Great for a short stay.
Great location on Princes St, very clean but the room is tiny and it was ok for me as a single person for one night. The bed is small and uncomfortable and im not tall.
Hardly any space to put stuff and no kettle.
Expensive really for what you get
My room was clean and the staff were kind and courteous which is the most important in my mind. The bedding and towels were spotless.
You could not ask for a better position for being near everything.
Of course that being Edinburgh, the room was one third of the size of my room in Cardiff and three times more expensive, which of course still a much better deal than Balmoral!!
The walls are thin and luckily ear plughs are provided. There is no lift and no windows in the room which I was aware of, but I did not stay in the room except for sleep.
This is a small hotel, we had two carry one suitcases and backpacks, it would be tough to comfortably fit much more than they in the room. But it's in an unbeatable location. The staff were super friendly, access was easy (no elevator though), and lots of walkable activities nearby including the castle up the hill
+ The location and castle view were great.
- It's a little awkward for early arrivals since there is a fee to hold each bag until check-in and also fees for tea/coffee. I had never been charged for these things elsewhere.
Very loud from the street below until 1am. The hotel had a pair of earplugs in the room, which made up for it.
The room was small, but nicely laid out so we didn't mind.
Good location. Reasonably priced. Small space but doable for couples traveling light.

We knew the room was going to be tiny, but it was shoebox size. It definitely looked older. The mattress was not comfortable. Very tight squeeze for 2 people. The location, however, was great! You could see the castle from the street in front of the hotel and it was only about a 20 min walk to the royal mile.
Clean and quiet room, but was very, very compact. We were on the second floor but in such an old building it was the equivalent of 4 floors to climb - no lift or assistance available so be prepared for that. Good location to the town centre, within easy walking distance of all the shops, restaurants and Edinburgh Castle.
Hotel front desk are very friend, a white man and a black man , sorry I didn't know their name, they are very helpful and friendly. room very small, no place to put luggage, this is the only shortage in this hotel

Ok for one night, small double room fine for one person. Bed comfortable and had good night’s sleep, efficient shower. Did not like bring asked to pay for a drink after paying £157 for the room. Other guests helped me down the stairs which are the main drawback to this hotel. Good location on Princes Street.
Clean room, small like a holiday trailer, fine for one short night but not to enjoy the city for days. Staff informed us of this before checking in so no complaints, and it was clean. But the rooms are definitely small little pods for 1 person, 2 if you are close.
