Modern, Clean & Central Location

stevefly82 26/07/2021 TripAdvisor review

Modern hotel in central location. The hotel was clean with simple but well appointed rooms. The staff were polite and helpful, and hotel has good on-site facilities. We used it to stay for a night prior to an early morning trip from Waverley Station. It was easy to access to and from the station. The immediate area has plenty of eating and drinking options, and the overall location is central for all Edinburgh attractions.

Enjoyable Stay

Kirsti A. Families - 25/07/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Clean and welcoming. Fantastic location!

Thank you very much Kirsti! We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us, we hope to see you again soon! :D Marina

Good stay

Denise Solo - 25/07/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Your towels need to be replaced. I remember visiting two years ago and they were in slightly better condition. I accept that rooms aren't cleaned daily. If you offer tea and coffee services then rooms should get these replenished daily. I asked for coffee and had to swap my coffee decaffeinated for caffeinated!

Thank you for your review Denise! Thank you for your understanding regarding the daily cleaning. As we don't clean the rooms everyday, we can't know if our guests need more coffee or tea, (we try to enter the rooms the less possible). However, at reception we have plenty of coffee and decaf coffee, tea, milk and sugar. If you would like to book again with us, just let us know and we can give you extra decaf coffee! :D Kind regards, Marina

The hotel is ideally located for attractions and tours.

Carol Solo - 24/07/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

The staff are extremely helpful. They are happy to help direct you from anything like a prearranged tour, to a nice local restaurant to meet a friend. The hotel itself is very welcoming and clean, but as my stay was only 2 nights was not cleaned due to covid restrictions. Hunters sqare was noisy but no fault of hotel.

Thank you very much for your review Carol! We are glad you found our staff helpful, we always try to make our guests feel as homely as possible :D Marina

Amazing stay great location

Well Located

Lynne Couples - 24/07/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Disappointed with the bed it was 2 single put together for a double was not comfortable

Thank you for your review Lynne! We are sorry you didn't found comfortable our beds, sometimes we have to adapt and we have to change the bed types everyday. If you would like to stay again with us, just let us know about your experience and we can try to allocate you in a better room! Marina

Good location, Poor hotel

Anonymous Couples - 24/07/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

We arrived at the hotel at 13:42 and we asked if we could pay to check in early and change but was told this was not an option and to come back at 2pm (18 mins later) we had tickets for the zoo for 14:00 and were already running late so we decided to just leave our luggage. When returning after our trip to the zoo we were given a room on 5th floor (room 512) the room was tiny, bathroom was so claustrophobic you couldn’t have 2 people in there to brush teeth and carpet had stains on. Considering this room cost us £117 I have stayed in better premier inn hotels for less than £30. I have stayed in plenty of ibis hotels both in the UK and also in Europe and they have been great. This hotel did not live up to the usual ibis standard and we were disappointed. Edinburgh is a beautiful city and we will return to fully explore but sadly will not be booking to stay at any ibis hotels.

Thank you for your feedback! We are sorry you were running late to the zoo, however, we can't guarantee an early check in. We always try to give our guests their rooms sooner than later, though sometimes we can't always do that. Regarding the price, (and related as well with the early check in), summer and Christmas are the busiest periods for tourism, so usually prices rises in touristic accommodations. Finally, we are sorry you didn't find the room big enough, if you would like, you can send us a more extended feedback to our email h2… If you change your mind about staying with us in the future, just let us know about these concerns, and we can try to allocate you in a bigger room :D Kind regards, Marina

Good stay

Good central location and comfy rooms

Ingthor H. Couples - 22/07/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Good stay for a specific visit to Edinburgh. Close to Royal Mile for food and drink. Were unlucky that there was some building work happening next door to sit outside in next doors restuarant and there was a congregation of street drinkers on the square opposite (none of which the hotel’s fault). Pleasant and courteous staff.

A two night stay in Edinburgh

Bernie W. Couples - 20/07/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

All staff were very friendly and helpful. We were allowed to keep our bicycles inside in a safe place. Covid-19 restrictions were well followed and we felt safe at all times. There was a good choice for breakfast and my gluten free needs were catered for. The hotel is very central being just off the royal mile. I would recommend this hotel to others.

Great location and hotel

Jw Couples - 20/07/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Easy check-in (and they let us check in early), great room, great location and really helpful staff. Not the best view and the square outside felt a little unsafe but other than that I would definitely recommend and stay there again!

Pleasant staff and great location

Munish A. Families - 20/07/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

The property is located at a prime location and staff is super friendly. We made some exceptional request at times to help with the baby food and staff was more than willing to help. Rooms were big enough for a family and absolutely clean. Loved our stay!

Amazing Hotel

A great hotel for exploing Edinburgh

K7693NCjohnb 19/02/2020 TripAdvisor review

The hotel is situated just off the Royal Mile, within easy walking distance of Waverley station, hop-on/off buses and airport link buses. Staff very friendly and efficient. The hotel has a lift and the bedrooms, although not large, are clean, comfortable and well presented. Breakfast was good, with a selection of both hot and cold options, fruit and drinks. The hotel has no restaurant, but there is a multitude of places to eat within a minute or twos walk. Overall a great hotel for exploring Edinburgh.
