We stayed here for the Fringe festival and were really happy with our choice. We got the tram from the airport and it is a short 2 minute walk from the local station which is excellent. The reception staff were friendly and helpful, and we were really happy with the plentiful stock of water, soft drinks, crisps and shortbread in the bar, that were replaced daily too. It was a really nice touch. The room gave us what we needed, a comfortable large king size bed and an excellent walk in shower that was very nice. The location was excellent for going to see shows, walking the short distance to the Royal Mile and for local shops and restaurants too. We would definitely stay again.

Amazing hotel that is great at customer service . We enjoyed 4 nights and will definitely be back . Lovely hotel with clean rooms, bathroom with rain shower and wonderful night sleep. Only downside is there was some trash or bottles being emptied 1-2 mornings which was loud at 2-3 am. Other than that the restaurant was great , breakfast amazing and dinner was great as well. Loved it! Very central to Edinburgh Old town and. 10 mins walk to royal mile , across street from train and bus/tram close by.

“Excellent Edinburgh Hotel”

We enjoyed our stay here, lovely building, great location right opposite the train station, lovely breakfast included. The only real negative was the noise, our room window wasn’t double glazed so you can hear all the traffic and street noise until late into the night.

“Front desk staff is amazing”

This hotel is right on princess street. This can easily be missed if you don’t know where you are going. I am writing this review to focus on few thing that people have missed in the reviews and this may help them have better understanding of it. I have never stayed at an indigo part of ihg.

This hotel is right on princess street. This can easily be missed if you don’t know where you are going. I am writing this review to focus on few thing that people have missed in the reviews and this may help them have better understanding of it. I have never stayed at an indigo part of ihg. This room was expensive like central London price per night I paid for. The entrance is small, reception you have to take lift and go above. this hotel is not like a hotel but an old house, with lots of stairs and walking, we never took the lift to our room as finding the lift was not easy. When we checked in as ihg members thought they said we have given you a good room, but it did not seem like it. We also had confirmation letter on arrival allowing checkout at 2pm, but receptionist were very reluctant and said max is 1pm. Room : square like a box, the room i was actually very disappointed in the size, this is like a room for a person not 2 . Sink is a bit tight, as ladies to put your. items any were. Invited space to put luggage and clothes, in the room. Really you can’t stay here more than 2 nights. WiFi’s was ok, you have to reconnect frequently and every day. Room has plenty of UBS’s ports, which is nice and is fairly kept clean. Tv ok, said was smart tv but did not work, no utube. The room was noisy, nonstop as we were on the front with trams non stop, small view of the castle. Mini bar- so nice idea they have which we knew before hand but it is not a fully stocked minibar, bit misleading to say this. you have 1 can of coke and 1 sanpellegriono and 2 water bottles. 2 crisps Small biscuit pack , chocolate (only on arrival was not stocked next day). Plenty of tea and coffee, but not herbal tea. Day 1 we ate out and had only 1 drink from mini bar, and next day they only put water and 1 can! So they do not have a fully stocked bar ( if you have been to a fully mini bar stocked one you know what it looks like)and even then next day they put 1 can in the fridge, when I spoke to the lady who seemed to be on charge she seemed very argumentative about. Front staff was very nice. Would I come back here again if I was in Scotland probably not, as it was very expensive and the room was tiny. As ihg loyal member expected some thing better.
