"Ideal for a short stay"

Hotel clean and warm with welcoming staff. Room clean, comfy beds, serviced daily with tea and coffee making equipment, adequate for a short break . Just one thing, on directions to hotel from station, be useful to say leave from Market Street exit at Waverley station, we used opposite entrance and ended up going totally opposite direction and had to get a cab, the walk from Market St is about 7 minutes.

"Really handy location at a reasonable price"

We stayed Thurs - Sun and found the location to be pretty central for everything we wanted to see (Castle etc). The only downside is that the beds aren`t king size but they did put up the sofa bed for us at no additional cost.

"Ideal location."

As a family of four we found the room to be a bit small, the beds were not very comfortable and some of the décor needed work. Overall as we only stayed for four nights and slept there, the best thing was that the hotel was close to everything and we were out and about during the day anyway.
