“The location on Princes Street is undeniably a high point, putting guests right in the heart of the city with castle views and easy access to transport and dining. While the compact room design may not suit everyone, especially those needing space or with mobility concerns, it's a practical choice for travellers prioritizing location and budget. If you plan to spend most of your time exploring Edinburgh and need just a clean, central base, this could be a smart option.”
