DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL unless you plan to be awake until at least 3AM. We got “upgraded” to room 212 and were moved to a louder part of the hotel right above The Three Sisters bar.

"Good but expensive"

7.0

The beds were comfortable, the shower was nice, the breakfast was basic but good, the rooms were sound proof, the location was very useful and they have a large TV in the room with everything you need.

The price for our stay was too expensive for what it is. There were small cracks on the ceiling in the bedroom and there were signs of dampness in the bathroom. I think the price reflects the location more than the facilities.

Tutto, posizione centralissima, stanza super spaziosa e il locale Three Sisters proprio sotto l'hotel è una chicca per chi non ha voglia di andare a dormire presto...

La posizione dell'hotel è molto strategica in quanto si trova a pochi passi dalla Royal Mile. Per coloro a cui piace fare festa o semplicemente bere qualche cosa la sera, il bar sotto l'hotel "The Three Sisters", è perfetto.

Per colore a cui non piace fare festa e hanno il sonno leggero, consiglio di portare i tappi per le orecchie in quanto la sera la zona è frequentata da festaioli.
