If memory serves me correctly, they claim 4 star rating yet there was no aircon and the ceiling fan made more noise than the traffic in the street. The latter being extremely noisy as I had to open the window to cool the room down. There was coffee but no indication as to where it was. I stumbled across it... More

Mature couple. Booked overnight stay to be in the City centre.Good location near theatre/cinema/restaurants. Room clean and spacious although, as to be expected, there was some traffic noise. Not so good was being able to hear the occupants of the next room. Glad the room was discounted, it certainly was not worth the advertised rate. Hotel advertised parking on site(at... More

We booked this hotel for three nights, arriving on New Years day. On arrival the reception was empty, attempted to check into the room and we were very rudely told that we could not check in despite it being past the 2pm check in time.

The room was of a better standard than I expected though it was at... More

We usually stay in King James Thistle when visiting Edinburgh and have just returned from a midweek break.

However, even though the bed was huge and comfortable we didn't get much sleep thanks to the windows allowing in amost of the major traffic noise and the drunks... More
