Great central location near St Giles Cathedral with comfy capsule beds for privacy. Friendly staff and good facilities. However, some minor inconveniences like limited sockets and chilly toilets. A safe and cozy stay with a unique old building atmosphere.

We loved the sleep pods, they provided just the right amount of privacy. Although there was only one towel provided, the facilities were clean and modern. Overall I'd recommend this hotel for budget travelers.

The jail cell stay was surprisingly cozy and had a quirky charm. I loved the ensuite bathroom, which was clean and well-equipped. It felt like a unique and immersive experience that added a fun twist to my trip.
The shared bathroom cells might be less convenient for some guests.

Very clean, including the bathroom and kitchen. Comfortable bed and own personal space. Helpful and friendly staff. Convenient location, worth the money.
Restrooms sometimes dirty, with toilets often lacking toilet paper. Lobby area crowded and noisy, with long-term residents using it as a living room.

I had the most delightful stay in this hotel! The location couldn't be better - it's right in the center of the historic area, on a busy street with a lot of character, and just a stone's throw from the main attractions, such as the famous cathedral and the castle. The service was also impeccable, and the room amenities were top-notch - I particularly enjoyed the heating, which made my stay cozy and comfortable. Also, the shared kitchen was a great addition, and the dining bar/lounge area was so charming and inviting. Lastly, I was impressed with how friendly and helpful the staff on shift were throughout my stay.
I highly recommend this hotel to everyone.

This place is in a prime location with easy access to all the popular sights and best bars of the city. The staff keeps everything clean and well-organized, making your stay hassle-free. The rooms are comfortable and offer a private, secure atmosphere. the bathroom facilities are well-equipped and clean, and you can enjoy unlimited tea and coffee on offer.
The bathroom ventilation needs a bit of cleaning for more comfortable use.

I was impressed with the hotel's location right in the center of the Old Town. It was just around the corner from a busier street but still quiet. The staff was super nice and helpful, and the breakfast was delicious and definitely worth the extra cost. Additionally, the cleanliness of the hotel was remarkable.
Couldn't fault this hotel.

It was like stepping back in time and discovering the haunted underground streets of Edinburgh. The guided tour was enthralling and the kids were fascinated by the eerie tales of the past prisoners lingering in the dungeons.
For dads it would be great if there were more family-friendly activities nearby for children to enjoy.

The decoration at the hotel was simply lovely, especially during the festive season. As a senior, I appreciated the comfortable and quiet general areas, making it easy to relax and socialize. The hotel's accessibility for senior people was impressive, with convenient facilities that catered to our needs.
I would ask for better accessibility features for senior people.

The location is great, right in the heart of the action. The concept of staying in a "cell" is definitely unique. The toilet decoration is quite amusing.
Oh, where do I start? The noise level was unbearable, the lack of insulation made it feel like I was sleeping outside.
