The hotel was very shabby and

The hotel was very shabby and must be due for decorating!!! reception, certain staff could and should be more friendly and give customers information on the events and features of Edinburgh!! Useful if you are not a local to Scotland!! The food in the pub next door is good however the portions could be more generous! The noise coming from this was loud and if staying at the front would be uncomfortable however it rained so this was helpful as we stayed at the front.

Festival, no thanks

I was there for an international conference, and the hotel location was perfect both for the conference venue and for sigthseeing late in the afternoon. Unfortunately I was in Edinburgh at the beginning of the Festival and the pub at the ground floor of the hotel there was live music until 3 in the night (friday-monday). It has been terrific !!! Anyway I realized that when there is no festival they play live music untill the 1 in the nigth, so it is a good hotel only for people that do not go to sleep early in the night.

A perfect hotel for a stay in

A perfect hotel for a stay in Edinburgh. Nice and friendly personal and a nice clean room (no 401) for a cheap price. The room was close to the elevator, but we nerver heard any noice from it. Even the location is very good (close to the royal mile and Edinburgh castle). Would gladly recommend it to anyone is going to visit Edinburgh!

my stay at the grassmarket hotel

i was in town for a wedding so i didn't spend much time at the hotel, but the staff were friendly and helpful and it was in an ideal location for me. the hallways / stairwells were a bit confusing initially as my room couldn't be reached by lift so i had to take the lift to the 1st floor, then walk along a hall and up a stairwell.

I have read a few reviews regarding

I have read a few reviews regarding this hotel, to be honest i was worried when i got there! I was pleasantly surprised! The hotel was spotlessly clean, we ended up with a triple for the price of a twin...so their was loads of room. My only complaint would be that the room was very warm! Just typical British hotels where there usually isnt the need for AC. The roadway was a bit noisy when the windows were open..but Hey what do you expect its a busy city!
