Premier Inn Edinburgh (Princes Street)

Stayed for four nights and was very happy with our stay. The room was on the fifth floor, was hoping to have faced the castle but we didn’t, instead facing an internal courtyard sort of thing, it was very quiet. The room was a good size and clean. The bed was comfortable with extra pillows and even more requested from reception. However a couple of the pillows were lumpy. The aircon worked well and was quiet. The bathroom was a good size and the shower gels were very nice. The location was very convenient, about a 10 minute walk to the station, 15 up to the castle, 10 to grass market and a couple of minutes on to rose street where you’ll find lots of bars and restaurants. On the negative side, the shower water pressure wasn’t great, there wasn’t much hanging space. We would return.

Had an excellent stay at the Premier Inn Princes Street in late April. Hotel is in an excellent location in the New Town with a view of the castle on leaving the hotel; is close to Princes Street tram stop and Waverley Station and to be honest not far from anywhere. All staff were friendly and helpful and as to be expected from Premier Inn the room was comfortable, clean and functional. Had breakfast both days which was excellent with a variety of choice and again good service. My only gripe which is incredibly petty and small is that the toilet paper comes out in single pieces and isn't particularly soft but this really is a minor point. Overall an excellent stay in a great city in a great hotel.

The hotel is in an excellent location for visiting Edinburgh and easy to find. Staff are so welcoming and helpful from the first step inside, and the rooms are very clean and comfortable. The adjoining Bar and Block is perfect, would have been happy to visit as adults but we felt catered to as a family with children too. Ate at night and breakfast and both times the food was fresh and delicious with great choices. Our visit was for a birthday and staff left a welcoming note and box of chocolates in the room which was really appreciated! The hotel uses key cards, even at the front door at night so the whole building feels very safe and secure. Only found this hotel through a search, never been before but would definitely stay here again in the future!
