Extended Group · May 2026

Liked:The place is very clean and well connected to public transport heading toward the city centre. The view as soon as you arrive is truly impressive. I definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants to stay in Edinburgh and prefers to avoid the more chaotic part of the city.

Disliked:The only downside is that I was the third person in our group, and in the family room I slept on the sofa bed. Unfortunately, the mattress was very thin and I didn’t sleep well. It’s a pity, because apart from that the accommodation is really excellent!

Good location

Liked:Friendly staff. Good location. Great breakfast.

Disliked:No bedside reading lights only a very poor lamp which gave almost no light at all. No switch beside bed to turn off main light. Wallpaper peeling from wall in various places. Small things but for the price paid for 2 nights I would expect more.of a luxury feel rather than such a basic room and yes I know its Edinburgh and therefore more expensive than other cities but staying in a Premier Inn would have a more luxury feel!

A comfortable, traditional hotel with friendly staff.

Liked:A comfortable hotel. The staff were very helpful and friendly.

Disliked:The stairs are steep and the hotel really needs to install a lift.

Dismissive and discriminatory interaction

Liked:Hotel adhered to request for ground floor room (as no elevators and generally no help is offered with bags).

Disliked:I booked this property for my parents who were coming to visit me in Edinburgh and this is their review: Our check-in experience was smooth and straightforward. However, I was disappointed with a later interaction with the reception staff. When I approached the desk a second time to ask if any insect repellent was available (after a moth entered our room, likely due to briefly opening the window to cool the room, which had no fly screens), I was first asked—quite rudely—to wait while the receptionist continued working on something behind the counter, without any acknowledgement or courtesy. When I was finally attended to, instead of offering assistance, I was told dismissively that “in the UK we don’t have insects.” The tone and manner of this remark felt inappropriate and carried an uncomfortable undertone that came across as dismissive toward people from outside the UK. This interaction felt unprofessional and unwelcoming. I hope the hotel takes this feedback seriously, both in terms of staff training on respectful communication and in addressing practical issues like the lack of fly screens in rooms.
