4/10 Fair

Never never never again stay with Ibis
Yes its a budget brand but a London premium prices for Edinburgh. A very slow frustrating check in process, slowest I've ever experienced for a hotel.The single beds were child sized with toppers rather than standard adult singles. A door to a presuming adjoining room would indicate that this expensive room was wholly inappropriate for two adults. The only postives I would say was that the breakfast was of a high quality and looking forward to checking out!

Room too hot
The room was adequate for a budget hotel. On the small side but very clean. The room was extremely hot and we even had the heat off (Oct time frame) and we opened the window and used a fan but the window in the room faced a wall at a strange angle so there was no airflow. The breakfast was good except for the powdered scrambled eggs. The staff was friendly and helpful but it’s unlikely that we will stay in this hotel again when we return to Scotland. Stay on a lower floor- we were on the 3rd.
Room with small window.

2/10 Poor

Woof...
We stayed at quite a few amazing hotels during our two weeks in the UK...this was not one of them. Twice as expensive and half the size of any of the other 5 hotels we stayed at (Islay, Glasgow, Edinburgh, London and Belfast). Comically small. So small only one person could be out of bed navigating the floor at a time and a ceiling dormer right next to the bed that I had to duck under when I got out of bed (see photo). The shower wouldn't drain and we both had to stop mid shower before the water flowed over the curb. A mattress that felt that it was made out of concrete. This would be a perfect room for a hobbit, but not for a man and certainly not for a couple. Broom closet maybe? Did I mention the all-night revelry taking place right outside our window? In all seriousness, unless you have some reason for staying right on the Royal Mile, head into New Town (walking distance) and you'll find a quieter, larger room for less money. We'll definitely be back to Edinburgh, but won't be staying here.

Hotel is ideally located near major attractions, easy to walk to wherever you want to go, safe, clean and great staff. It is very noisy during the school year, the university kids were loud until about 5 am and I had a hard time sleeping through the noise.

Very well located, right off the Royal Mile, close to everything. Very clean room. Can be slightly noisey some nights if the room gives on the street but we slept very well with the windows closed. Highly recommend!

I stayed here for 3 nights during the end of festival season. I had not realized that the festivals would be going on, and just know that it is noisy into the evening. It is a great location, near noisy bars, great restaurants and cafes. The room was very small (it was tight with 2 people and suitcases) and the bathroom was minuscule but both were clean. I did notice that the carpet against the outside wall was damp as if there was a leak. The staff were wonderful, they helped us get help for a medical emergency.

Staff were very friendly and helpful. Twin room was very small with limited space to walk around the beds. No air conditioning and fan extractor noise all night from outside the window.

8/10 Very good

This place is adequate for a single nights stay, but beyond that it would be terrible. The location is straight up inconvenient. During the Fringe festival it was a nightmare. People hanging out in front of the front door while we were trying to drag in our luggage. Parking is a good 6 minute hike to a garage. The room was absolutely tiny. It’s just like Microtel. The room was clean and the beds were fine, but the amenities in the room were lacking. No tissues, hand towel or facecloths. No a/c. No luggage rack, probably because the room is so small you can barely walk by the beds. Positives were that it had an elevator even though it was tiny. Breakfast was good. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful.
