"Great budget stay"

8.0

Surprisingly good, a little worried after reading some reviews but all good. Lots of hot water, it was clean and fortunately we did not have to haul bags up the stairs as there is no lift. Great location, right across from Haymarket Station and less than block to airport tram. Lots of places to eat in area. 20 minute walk to the castle. The price was right .

Dated and a little worn.

Great location. Close to shops, pubs, food, town centre, train station and all the tourist stuff.

Just very basic but if you're just after a bed and shower ok

"Expensive for what it is"

6.0

Very close to Haymarket train and tram stations

This hotel is part of the old Scots Guards Club and needs a complete refurbishment. You have to ring a buzzer for access and they only accept cash. For the same price you can get a room in the newer hotel chains just as close to Haymarket

Proximity to transport and was not noisy despite the transport. Bed was comfy, towels were lovely and soft. Food outlets very close.

Maintainance required on many aspects of rooms and building. Small things left undone
