Great hotel in Leith
This hotel is great value for money, considering the quality of accommodation, hospitality and food. It is in a lovely part of Edinburgh down by the Leith waterfront. The only negative I have is that the background music in the public areas is really depressing! Please change it to something else.

Nice stay, good accommodation
Was a pleasant stay, staff are very friendly. There’s nearby dinning, grocery store, very walkable. Only issue I had was that if people were talking in the hallway, you can hear them, and you can also hear the TV once it gets up to a volume 10, which isn’t ideal.
