Worth weighing

- Pets not allowed — Guests travelling with pets will need to look elsewhere, as the policy is clear.
- Check-in starts at 14:00 — If you arrive earlier, you may need to wait or store bags until the 2 PM check-in window opens.

8.4Verified guest“The location was brilliant, although quite close to the centre it was very quiet. The restaurant next door was lovely and the standard of food was very high. My partner and I enjoyed our stay and would definitely consider this hotel in the future!”
8.4Verified guest“The breakfast food was reasonably priced and the room itself was neat and well-appointed with coffee, a couch, for example provided. We enjoyed the property and would stay here again.”
8.4Verified guest“Located just across the road from the railway station, this hotel is convenient for those traveling by train. It is within walking distance of the station and with trains running every half-hour, quick access to the city center is possible. The rooms are clean and comfortable and the staff welcoming and helpful. The restaurant serves delicious food, including haggis, and the nearby shopping center is a plus.”

The station opposite the hotel is a 5-minute walk over the road and trains to Edinburgh are regular at about £3.80 return. Just 2 stops and the journey takes around 10 minutes.”
