Amazing
SsilkwormNice little room but still with more space than I had expected. Decor is tasteful. Love all the quality products. Love the 'Do Not Disturb ' cat. Underfloor heating in bathroom was great to start with but it gets too hot when you stand in front of the wash hand basin for any length of time. Bed is good and spacious.

GGuest UserEdinburgh 4Friends House is a wonderful accommodation with everything: location, atmosphere, and service. Located in the city center, it is conveniently located within walking distance of tourist attractions such as Edinburgh Castle and the Royal Mile. The rooms and common areas are clean, and the calming interior will soothe your travel fatigue. The owner and staff were very kind, and the sightseeing advice and warm hospitality were impressive. In addition, the kitchen facilities are well-equipped, so it is recommended for long-term stays and those who like to cook their own meals. You can sleep soundly in a quiet environment, and the affordable price makes it excellent value for money. It is a very satisfying place to stay when visiting Edinburgh!

KKirillIn principle, not everything so bad, waiting was worse. Even managed to sleep. At 2:00 a.m. somebody came and woke up with his noise, nobody was insured against it

GGuest UserThis is a very interesting hotel in a converted church, the staff are very nice, friendly and attentive. Because it is a historical building, there is no way to remodel it. The rooms are still relatively large. There are collective kitchens, movie rooms, and few single rooms, so it is more convenient to wash in the public bathroom. It's still fun to feel the unique atmosphere.

GGraham HoodI would describe the twin lions hotel more of a b & b. It was very basic. It was only a 10min walk to murrayfield and they don't double / triple there price on match days.
6.0/10
AAzibasuam LilianI loved the location as I had access to the park for the children and to the shop. I loved that the room had enough beds for all of us (5 people). I would have appreciated if we could get plates, as we came with food. It was great the room had a microwave. There was plumbing issues that delayed our shower time. But stay was good.
