Good visit. Close to everything. Didn’t like the lack of privacy for the bathroom
And shower; fine as our kids were small but would be difficult if they were teenagers.

Central and super modern accomodation.
Central for me to attend a show at the Lyceum Theatre. About 15 mins walk, from Yotel. Staff were welcoming and very helpful. Checkout was at 11am. They offer a service to store your suitcase, after checkout. So I had extra time to visit, Rose Street and Princess Street.

Great clean modern hotel, pity about the mattress
First stay in this edinburgh hotel. Was a nice modern place to stay, high cleaning standards, lovely fresh crisp white bed sheets and free tea/coffee in bar area which was great after after a cold night out. Although mentioned on the website the only negative thing is the memory foam mattress, uncomfortable and too hot, not for me which is a shame as i really liked the hotel but i would prefer a good night's sleep.

Rooms very spacious and very clean. The only negative was the other guests lack of respect late at night returning to there rooms. You can hear everything and closing there doors made ours try to open so kept us awake for a while. I no thats not the hotels fault but maybe a thought going forward. But other then that was a lovely efficient running hotel. And would more then likely stay again

Disappointing
Concrete-hard pillows, making for a really uncomfortable sleep. Didn't like set up of room- toilet, shower and hand basin in front of window, making room dark (curtain between shower & bed), despite being a lovely day. Although a Premium Queen room booked, bed was not SmartBed adjustable :( In all, disappointed as we've stayed a few times before, in a Queen Cabin, and always thought it fab.

Save your money and go elsewhere
I'm not sure what I spent £306 for two nights on. I was able to check in and out without the help of staff. The amenities were fine though, there were no tea or coffee facilities in the room. Only thing this hotel had going for it was the location

Super Modern and Clean Hotel
Very good value. Excellent central location. Good facilities eg bar with food menu, vending machines, free tea, coffee, iced water. Modern rooms, very clean. Self check in and check out (although staff available if you require assistance). We would definitely return.
