7.0

Sehr gute Lage an der Princes Street. Alles gut zu Fuss erreichbar. Full Scotisch Breakfast war sehr gut. Personal freundlich. Panoramablick mit Princes Street und Royal Mile

Fenster nur im Bad zum öffnen gewesen. War stickig wenn die Sonne reinschien. Aber es gab ein Standventilator Es wäre schön gewesen wenn das Fenster gedämmt gewesen wäre. Es war doch etwas laut draußen in der Nacht

"I would stay again for the location!"

8.0

Chose the Old Waverly hotel because of the location and it did not disappoint very convenient for our family to reach Old Town, Rabbies bus tours and AirLink100 bus!

Bath has a high tub to climb over when shower and room is a little small, but it served its purpose.
