Got a bit loud at 3 am when the bars let out as our room overlooked the street. This died down pretty quick though.

Fabulous location to explore Edinburgh. Breakfast at Rabble was brilliant; we include a family of 3 Ceoliac and lots of options for us. The room was a great size for the 4 of us. Would stay here again

Reasonable location just off Princess St. Facilities fine. Room a bit on the warm side with no obvious thermostat and TV a bit far away from the bed for ideal viewing. However I'm only there to drop my bags off and to sleep.

Central and Comfy!
Great location! Very comfortable! Nice staff! Highly recommend. There are pubs nearby, as there are near all hotels in Edinburgh, so you will hear some night owls outside on the weekends. This is normal. Just be prepared, bring ear plugs or noise machine if its going to bug you. Also, the shower/tub is on a platform. Be aware & careful when stepping out.
