"I couldn’t believe how beautiful this property is and the attention to detail was impeccable. Even the lounge area with cappuccino, latte, pastries, etc. were a pleasant surprise. It’s in the perfect location too, we walked everywhere without any problems."
"This guest is a really lovely place to stay, 20 minute walk from Wavery train station, plenty of places to eat 5-10 mins walk away. The building itself is stunning and the continental breakfast is a bonus we weren’t expecting!"

"The best of both worlds, a modern hotel conveniently located in Edinburgh’s Old Town. Very walkable to major attractions. We had an air conditioned castle view room (not all rooms are air-conditioned!) with a great view, but on the weekend the Grassmarket area is really hopping until the small hours, so it can be pretty loud.
Hotel staff are very friendly and accommodating, amenities are good however the restaurant was closed for part of our stay so can’t comment on that.
If you are driving, there is very limited parking behind the hotel through an alleyway, we were fortunate to get a spot.
We would definitely stay there again when visiting Edinburgh. Good value for money and excellent location."
"The whole place felt safe, and clean - I saw them cleaning like twice a day when I was there.
As an added bonus they do a great job facilitating and providing opportunities for solo-travelers to meet up with others"
"The location is everything! Really nice kitchen. Good use of a small space. I wish I had brought my own toiletries. No conditioner provided. Body gel/shampoo had strong smell. Towels were rough, but did the bob. The shower half wall-helped create a daily flood. We couldn’t keep the spray contained. "
"We enjoyed greatly our time at W. Very close to a mall, tons of dining options within walking distance. Sushisamba tasting menu was an excellent culinary experience. The 360 views from terrace of city are a must see. "
