Right across from the train station so it was incredibly convenient. Within a reasonable walk to Edinburgh Castle and some main shopping streets. The rooms were average, and the hotel was under renovation.

I only stayed one night for close proximity to Waverley for an early train the next morning. My room was facing an internal courtyard which was very quiet and perfect for sleep. The room and bathroom were both much larger than I expected after reading the reviews. Very conveniently located.
