Looking forward to going back

I liked being near the shops and station. We had a nice room which overlooked the back of the hotel and it was quiet. The breakfast was good. You did not even have to go out into the fresh air to get to the shops.

Edinburgh was the halfway point of our UK trip and the Edinburgh Thistle was a very nice place to stay. Extremely clean with excellent food, it impressed us in all aspects. We highly recommend this hotel.

Only needs a bigger bed
By ,
The only thing I can say I disliked is that we were on our honeymoon and had to stay in two single beds rather than one with a full or queen bed. Otherwise we loved the location as well as the atmosphere of the hotel. We were very close to everything we wanted to see and the people were very nice. We just wanted one bed as a honeymooning couple is all.
