IMPORTANT: My flat has recently been granted a short term let license and the relevant planning permission to operate legally as a holiday rental. Both these things are a legal requirement for holiday lets such as mine and very few in Edinburgh have been granted them to date. If you book somewhere in Edinburgh, please ensure they are legal to operate or you may find they are forced by the authorities to cease trading with immediate effect and you run the very real risk of your booking being cancelled. Further to this, if they do continue to trade without the legal requirements you will not be covered by any insurance should you require this during your stay. Decisions on whether licenses and planning permission are granted are starting to come in between Jan 2024 and throughout the summer of 2024.Now for the nice stuff:Cozy, comfortable home combining traditional Scottish flair with modernity and everything you could possibly need.

We had a very pleasant stay at Travelodge Edinburgh Central Waterloo Place. The location is excellent—just a short walk from Waverley Station, the Royal Mile, and many of Edinburgh's main attractions, making it very convenient for sightseeing. The room was clean, comfortable, and quiet, providing everything we needed for a good night's rest. The bed was comfortable, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The only small downside was that the room didn't have air conditioning, so it could get a little warm during unusually hot weather. However, this wasn't a major issue, and overall we had a great experience. We would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable hotel in a fantastic central location.

Facilities: It seems there's no swimming pool. The hotel has a very Scottish style, not luxurious but full of character in its decor. Cleanliness: Good, no dust or anything. Environment: Quite satisfactory, doesn't feel cramped or oppressive. Service: Most of the staff were very polite, making you feel right at home.

1. The location is excellent, like living on the Bund in Shanghai. Prince Street, where it's located, is known as the world's most beautiful street (a slight exaggeration, but it's truly beautiful), making it ideal for CityWalk. 2. The classic tomb-view rooms offer a picturesque view of the ancient tombs, which is quite captivating if you're not bothered. 3. The rooms are quite large, with kitchens and living rooms. 4. There's a laundry room. 5. Parking is available at a public lot over 500 meters away. You'll need to reserve it online, but you can ask the front desk for a discount code.

It's a 7-minute walk from the train station, making it very convenient to get around. Because the business was so good, all four bedding items on the day of my check-in were stained, but someone from the front desk came to change them immediately.

The location is fantastic! Princes Street is right around the corner if you turn right, and Calton Hill steps are just a short walk to the left. The front desk upgraded our room, which had a huge bed and was very clean. Breakfast is ordered to-go and can take a while, so if you're in a hurry, go early. There's a Chinese restaurant to the right when you exit that's pretty good, but it's often packed with tour groups, so it's best to book in advance.

I stayed for two nights in a room with a 1.5-meter bed, and it was very spacious. This is an apartment hotel, so it came with a kitchen and complete tableware. There's a large Marks & Spencer on Princes Street where you can buy all sorts of food. The room doesn't provide bottled water, and there's no breakfast buffet, but you can grab croissants and coffee next to the front desk in the mornings. Rooms with a view directly overlook Calton Hill. Also, there's a mall and a bar downstairs, which can be quite noisy in the afternoon, but it doesn't affect the night.
