The hotel is in a prime location, with the Royal Mile Old Town just outside. Shopping and dining are very convenient and abundant. It is close to Edinburgh Castle and Holyrood Palace, and not far from Waverley Train Station. In short, the location is excellent! Convenient travel is a highlight.
In addition, the hotel is very quiet, with good sound insulation, which can ensure adequate sleep. In short, it is a good choice!

Edinburgh is incomparably beautiful. It was a sunny day when I came. It was really beautiful. The place is not big, but the architecture is really attractive. You need to spend some time to appreciate it quietly. This hotel is a little far from the station. It takes about 10-15 minutes to walk. The road is not easy to walk. It is hard to pull the luggage. The hotel is good and clean. The breakfast is average, on the basement floor.

The hotel is in a very good location, right next to the Royal Mile, about 200 meters away. It takes 10 minutes to walk to the magnificent Edinburgh Castle and Holyrood Palace, and 10 minutes to walk to Waverley Railway Station. Several tourist attractions in Edinburgh can be reached on foot, which is very convenient. The hotel also provides breakfast, which tastes good. It is an absolutely cost-effective hotel in Edinburgh. I highly recommend it. I will stay here again next time I come to Edinburgh.

The biggest advantage of this hotel is its excellent location, which makes it very convenient to go anywhere. Of course, we came during the off-season, so there were not many people and the price/performance ratio was very high!
