The rooms are really small. Smaller than you could imagine. This was the branding for the hotel though hence the 5 stars because everything else is great! Service was good, location was amazing, and I got some free coffee from the staff. Very nice.

Where to start if I could leave no stars I would. I will say I didn’t check reviews or look properly at this hotel before I booked but the price for what it is was way too much. The room was so small we both couldn’t be standing up at the same time. The bathroom was a box I’m only 5”2 and my knees almost touched the door sittting on the toilet. The tiny bit of floor space in the room was dusty and the room itself was grubby. There is absolutely nowhere to put your clothes other than in your suitcase in a hole under the bed. I do understand the need for budget hotels but that should be reflected in the price. We paid £223 for 2 nights which is extortionate for that room. We cut our losses and only stayed for one of the nights and found another hotel which was only £20 more expensive for the night. My advice to myself and anyone reading this check the reviews before you book and to the hotel the price you are charging is absolutely ridiculous for the facilities provided.

Great central location! I had a room at the back so it was super quiet. Staff accommodating and as I stayed multi days it was easy to get clean towels. i was offered a mid stay room clean but I did not need it. Good pressure hot shower and a comfortable bed - great if you want to spend your time and money out of the hotel exploring the city.

Meh hotel.

First off their is no elevator in the building their is no indication when booking the hotel that they have no elevator. I have mobility issues and had no idea I'd be humffing my back up three flights of stairs. The rooms are tiny, their are other hotel rooms in Edinburgh for the same price or near that have much larger rooms and elevators. Their was no point in being given a key card to get into the building because after tapping your card, you still had to wait to be let in. Says their is Aircon, their was no controllable aircon so ended up cooking in the tiny room. Staff however were very pleasant and polite.

Rugby weekend stay.

Room was tiny although we were aware of what we were paying for. Not really a hotel more hostel like. Theres no lift so if your not fit forget it. Was very cold as its a listed building with bed up beside window. Staff were helpful and got us an extra duvet. Grand for short stay not long.

Avoid if possible

I'm all for low cost accommodation in a great location. Stayed here for 2 nights and was very uncomfortable but again, expectedly uncomfortable. What I can't put up with is no water for showers. Two days and two nights without hot water (or any water) for a shower. When I asked about if it was coming back on, I was told it was an old building and it happens. There is a Premier Inn a few doors up. Have a look there instead.

Fine if you are a heavy sleeper

Budget hotel and conditions to be expected. The windows may as well be wide open as the noise from the traffic is so loud and it's single glazing, fire safety light stays on all night. Definitely worth investing in a nicer hotel but staff are welcoming and location central.

Cheap (for Edinburgh) stay

My first ever Easy Hotel stay. Clean no-frills small room. It's a pod dropped into an old building so there was no window but as I was literally arriving, leaving a bag, going out for a gig, coming back, sleeping and leaving in the morning a window was not needed.

Small but comfy city centre rooms

The first thing I will mention is the elephant in the room. The rooms in an Easy Hotel are small. They are essentially just a bed and a shower/toilet room. I've stayed in an Easy Hotel before and that is perfectly fine for me. I'm only going to be sleeping and showering there anyway. Edinburgh Easy Hotel is much like that but it is also smack bang in the centre of Edinburgh. You can literally walk out the front door and see the castle. Tram and bus stops are right there too, as well as cafes, other eateries and shops. The only thing I might mention about the Edinburgh Easy Hotel is that I could hear people talking in the rooms next to mine. If you are a light sleeper then you may want to bear that in mind. Me, I wouldn't hear a nuclear bomb! Overall I was very happy with my stay. The staff were pleasant, the room comfy and warm (in a very cold January Edinburgh) and it was cheap. That gave me more money to enjoy beautiful Edinburgh.
