Definitely not a 4 stars like they advertise maybe more like a 2ish-3 star, the rooms are ok not the cleanest but good, they didn't had extra blankets when we asked for one more to put in a window that didn't had black curtains and with the street light it felt like day light, it could be a little noisy been in the middle of the action but we didn't mind that, however the staff was very friendly, the location was unbeatable right on grassmarket and steps to the castle and the royal mile, but the breakfast at Biddy's took all the medals it was the best part of the stay. Overall it's a good place definitely worth it.

Small fun room
There was a wall on 3 sides of the bed. It was the smallest room I’ve ever stayed in. It was cute and comfy for my 7 year old daughter and I. She loved it, but my mom wouldn’t have liked it. We enjoyed our stay. The location was fantastic! We walked from train station and to the Royal Mile shopping and Castle. There was a fun outdoor market and the Hop On Hop Off Grassmarket stop right in front of hotel. The bar next door was super crowded so they brought the food into the hotel lobby for us to eat, which we had all to ourselves with booths and board games. There’s also lots of other restaurants around. They were friendly and the story about how small it was is fun.

Best location for Fringe Festival
The location is the best for strolling around the main spots of Edinburgh especially when you are planning a trip for Fringe Festival. It is safe, vibrant and I trust it is with the best location to access most of the shows during the Fringe Festival. All shows I attended are from 2-min to maximum 20 minutes walk! It is amazing.

Party while you sleep…
If you like hearing loud music til 1am while you try to sleep, this is the place for you. If you don’t but want to stay here, be sure to ask to be placed higher up to avoid the noise.

Close to the Royal Mile/Edinburgh castle and not to be missed “Diagon Alley” shops on Victoria Street. Room was a little small but to be expected given city center location and they did a really nice job making the space as functional/comfortable as possible. Fine for us, but note that the bathroom door was frosted glass and some people might not like that. Would say the vibe was casual hotel/upscale hostel. Staff were young/chill, friendly enough but not going out of their way to be welcoming/engaging. Walk from Princes Street train was partially uphill and included a flight of stairs by Victoria Street.. manageable with our suitcases but would not have been good with kids or bigger suitcases. Nice location to be close to the action on a short trip, but would probably opt for somewhere in the New City next time around. Coming from the states, was surprised that many shops/restaurants closed earlier than expected in Edinburgh. Something to keep in mind for planning meals and getting to eat at your preferred spot. Eating in Edinburgh was fun and more vegetarian-friendly than I expected. One of our favorite Edinburgh meals was lunch at a church basement right next to the intercontinental hotel!! Be sure to check it out if you’re looking for some thing simple and affordable. Did not eat at the Grassmarket restaurant, but the menu looks good!!

Never book Grassmarket in Edinburgh
We got there and were told they had to move us to another hotel because they had a plumbing issue- as we stood there, they checked in other people. I booked this 6 months ago! At least the other hotel was decent, but NOT in the same area. Very frustrating and upsetting after days of travel and only a short time in Edinburgh- they wasted our time that we could have been sightseeing.

Disappointed
We were moved to a “sister” hotel when we arrived. It was not in a good location, above a night club that kept us up all night, patrons from club running around our hallway, we were very disappointed.

Perfect central location, hotel is historic/listed hotel. Would have appreciated knowing that there is no elevator to the 2nd floor, therefore had to drag our luggage through corridors, steps and 2 flights of stairs. Room was not the cleanest, if you prefer a less noisy hotel then this is not for you, pub next door with people partying till 3.00 am. Staff are friendly but did not offer to help us with our luggage up those stairs and corridors especially due to our age.
