Posizione veramente eccellente, comodissima per visitare la città a piedi e per prendere tutti gli autobus. Personale molto gentile e disponibile, ci hanno tenuto le valigie in deposito senza farci pagare nulla. La camera non era molto grande, ma il bagno era nuovo ed impeccabile. Abbiamo molto gradito il bollitore in camera con tè e caffè sempre disponibili.

The hotel’s location is a strength being next to the Link100 bus to the airport, steps from the Waverley Station and in the heart of Edinburgh. Everything is within walking distance. We had a room for three persons (adults) with three single beds on the 1st floor. It was sufficiently large as was the bathroom, clean and the beds were comfortable and the linens looking new. The staff at the reception where helpful.
Our room was on the back of the hotel overlooking the alley and there was some noise with people passing through the alley in the early hours of the morning.

Die Lage, das Zimmer und der Blick vom Zimmer.
Das Frühstück war sehr schlecht und das Personal nicht freundlich.

Good location on Prince Street, but narrow entrance means manhandling cases up 3 awkward levels to reception although there is a bell to call for assistance.
Bar and restaurant covered by same personnel so often they are not where you need them for service.

Comfortable beds, great location for Edinburgh and lovely food served.
Our first room's windows overlooked the fire escape (well through frosted glass) and a landing which had the light on all night. Could see this through the closed curtains. Did consider complaining but as we were only sleeping in it for 2 nights, didn't bother to. However, after our return flight was cancelled and we rebooked for another night, then given a room overlooking the Scott monument and Princes Street. Now wish we had complained on the first two nights!
Also did not like having to pay £25 key deposit for the room key.

Ideal location. We only stayed one night to catch the bus to the airport and it was perfect. Quiet, central and close to everything you might need.

Reception bar area and diningroom were well decorated and comfortable and warm and lovely views of the city. Lovely atmosphere for us to end our evening relaxing.
Although bedroom size was excellent for us 3 to share could do with updating.

Ideal position for train & buses, fabulous staff very helpful, room was spotless and breakfast excellent,
We have stayed at the Waverley several times and the only fault was the room we were in was smaller than the last few times we stayed, this didn’t spoil our stay as it was spotless and the staff exceptional.

Old school hotel but quality; comfy beds, big windows with views onto Princes Street, tea and kettle and desk, spacious rooms with lovely tall ceilings, staff friendly/flexible - were able to hold on to my luggage for most of the day when I checked out! Good bathroom and shower, spacious and good pressure for an older building. The decor is older, but I found it charming for that. The TV’s are old school small but that’s OK
Could do an intro about the wifi, and it looked like it was an open network (as opposed to a password WPA3 etc), but there was plenty of 4G signal.

Amazing location right in the city center and stunning view of the Scott Monument and Princess Street.
The breakfast was quite good, and the bar and restaurant area were lovely.
The room required renovation and refreshing: old furniture, old fashion design, old carpets and poor bathroom.

De locatie
De prijs kwaliteit verhouding klopt niet! Het bed was slecht, er was enkelvoudig glas waardoor al het geluid van buiten goed te horen was. Stoffige kamer. Voor de prijs die gevraagd wordt verwacht je meer.

Location was perfect! Across from the main train station and easy walk to everything!
More than one elevator... Besides that nothing!

The comfort and cleanliness.
Our welcome was great!!
Wifi quality was really poor.
Some front desk staff were not as friendly as the others but didn't really affect our stay.
It would just be nice to have a smiling face when you walk passed.

Perfecte locatie op Princes street.
Direct naast de halte van de airport bus en tegenover Waverley station.
Prima en functioneel ontbijt met warme en koude gerechten en broodjes.
Fijne bedden.
We hadden een kamer zonder uitzicht. Maar konden ook niet naar buiten kijken. De ramen waren dichtgemaakt.. Daarnaast was de kamer wat krap.

Die Badewanne:) Wahnsinnig tolle Betten.
Richtig tolles altes Hotel-Hotel!
Ich reise sehr selten, aber so stelle ich mir ein Hotel vor. Very scottish!
Frühstück war uns zu teuer. Aber das Hotel liegt so zentral, dass man super überall hinkommt.
Getränkeautomat wäre toll gewesen.

Posizione ottima, centralissima e comoda per raggiungere qualsiasi parte di Edimburgo.
Pulizia, buoni servizi e rapporto qualità prezzo davvero buono.
La gentilezza del personale, un tocco super! Nonostante abbiamo fatto diverse richieste, si sono mostrati super disponibili cercando di accontentare ogni nostra esigenza.

ambiance, knus, zeer hulpvaardig personeel
top locatie
wij wisten het van te voren maar als je slecht ter been bent is dit leuke hotel geen handige optie. ( meer als tip voor mensen die willen boeken)
4.0
goede bedden, schone kamer, vriendelijk personeel en een prima Schots ontbijt!
(ook andere mogelijkheden als yoghurt, verschillende verse broodjes en beleg)
de lift is vrij krap (er is er maar één en je kan er maar met vier personen in)
Wat belangrijk is voor mensen die slecht ter been zijn en alleen reizen, is dit niet het handigste hotel.
Eerst een trap op om bij de balie te komen, daarna een klein trapje om bij de lift te komen.
Als gezin met oma met rollator konden wij dat prima oplossen, maar als traplopen lastig is, is dit niet het handigste verblijf.

La estancia fue francamente agradable. Sin duda, la ubicación, la amplitud y luminosidad de la habitación son sobresalientes en este alojamiento.
Me gustaría destacar, igualmente, la amabilidad del personal.

Breakfast was satisfactory. Clean well organised buffet type breakfast. Staff were willing to assist. The bar staff were exceptional… friendly, pleasant and chatty. It was fantastic to be able to store our luggage on departure day … affording is the opportunity to explore the city for the day without hassle, collecting it in the evening. Well done old Waverley!!
Nothing really. As a family of 5, we were all satisfied. Location is absolutely super
