Park View House

Convenient location near bus lines to city center or beach. Comfortable rooms, extra tea and towels available at all times. Friendly neighborhood cats and lots of puppies being walked in the park across the street. Clean room.

Pros: Price was great. Our room slept 5 and was quite large for a UK hotel. Area was mostly quiet and felt safe. Blackout curtains were great. Walkable distance to a Tesco, Papa John’s and so many other restaurants (check out Lioness of Leith!). Shower was great (water pressure excellent and plenty of hot water). Easy drive to Old Town attractions. Cons: other than the shower, the bathroom could use some updates - the whole basement level of the hotel looks like it’s maybe in the process of a remodel? Our room was next to the stairs and I could hear them squeaking throughout the night as people came and went. Car park had limited space, but parking out front was free. Overall it wasn’t anything fancy, but it met our family’s needs, was quiet and felt safe. If you’re on a budget, this is an excellent option.

Given that there is free parking on the premises one can walk from the property about 40-45 min to Royal Mile and maybe 50 to 60 min to the castle. The walk is through a nice neighborhood and can be considered part of visiting the city. The room I had did not have much furniture but had everything we needed for comfortable overnight stay. It was a clean, modest room for a reasonable price compared to other offerings in the city, perfect to crash in the night.

Great location and very reasonably priced. Easy check in and out. Clean rooms and plenty of tea and coffee. Had all the necessary items such as iron, hairdryer etc

The place was well located, tidy and easy to check in. Tea, coffee and milk provided with daily cleaning if required. Unfortunately, I found the other guests to be quite noisy. Found it hard to sleep due to the noise of doors closing and loud conversations.

Unmanned property with the use of codes everytime. It’s not easy to communicate if ever there are some concerns. People outside are to noisy at times during the night on our room. We have no choice but to open the window since it has no air conditioning unit. A lot of restaurant and around a big park infront and easy access to transpo going to downtown.

Room was clean but decor is shabby. Peeling wallpaper, torn furnishings, very basic

it’s a good stay if you’re able to get a deal on the price. nearby several bus/tram stations (about 20-30 minute ride into the center). beds were super uncomfortable and the walls between rooms are quite thin so a good nights sleep wasnt very possible. little interaction with staff but what we had was very pleasant. windows only open a crack so room can get pretty stuffy.

Staff was non existent and we are given a code to access and instruction to get the room key from the key locker at the lobby. Not that I cannot handle it but a bit of human touch would help the experience greatly. Being in a hotel I would expect toiletries eg shampoo and conditioner but they are not provided. The room was very basic. One hook or one rail in the bathroom to hang the towel would be just common sense but again they do not exist. I would say it’s expensive compared to the service and the quality of the room that I received. And I am fully aware I am booking a 3-star and it’s still failing my expectations

Only if I was absolutely desperate It's not like we were expecting frills. I expected the beds to be hard and they are. The pillows were just barely thick enough to be considered a pillow. Good luck if it's a somewhat warm day, as the windows only open two inches, so there's very little breeze and on the top floor, the heats already rising to make the room overly stuffy. Then the shower barely works. For all the extreme noise it makes, it puts out the weakest stream possible for maybe 3 minutes. Then we had tonfight with it, turning it off and on to get the bare minimum of water to rinse off. Good luck washing your hair. And it seems like you can only flush the toilet once every half an hour and get an actual flush. Not that great for 4 people who wanted this room just to sleep and reset. I sent a message through Travelocity and heard nothing back. It's not like there's a front desk clerk. I'd give this place zero stars if I could.

Our room was very basic, the ztV didnt work & we could not have a shower as not working & no water. Also no cold water at all

Gave us a different room to picture and walls are like paper can hear everything get what you pay for I guess

Ideal location and have private parking available ,but didn’t stay as planned and moved to another hotel. Room walls are so thin that you can hear people walking,talking and even if some one open next rooms door.Because of this disturbance at night time we have to move out to another location. Room service doesn’t exist and no entertainment either just BBC/ITV channels .

Not near any public transportation but otherwise nice place and quiet.

Calm and peaceful. Everything was good. One thing missing is microwave oven. It must be there. Satisfied.

Great value for the price! Friendly staff!

Hotel was easy to get to and room was clean but there was no plug in the wash basin. Also there is a notice about using less towels to be greener. That would be good if the towels were a decent size

We stayed 5 nights in April 25.The hotel is self service and unstaffed, you’re given a code to enter the main front door then a code to pick up your key from a safe. Our room (no 14 was next to the front door so we heard other guests coming in late at night, slamming the door, talking right outside our room. 1 night a group of young women were trying to get into the property, they obviously didn’t get the msg about the code. They were knocking on the front door and calling for someone to let them in at 1.30am. I had to get out of bed to let them, they were very relieved, but then it took them ages to figure out how to get their key out the safe so they were talking right outside our room door for ages. There were 2 rooms and as a positive the rooms were huge so we had a lot of space. However the 2nd bedroom with 2 single beds had an external door that led to the carpark and guests arriving by car would frequently try to enter the building through this door (which had a very basic lock on it) This really scared my children in the night so we had to move one of the single beds into the main bedroom and my husband slept on the sofa (which was actually more comfortable than the thin hard mattress) There was a fridge and a microwave in the main room which was really useful for breakfast however the fridge made really loud noises and also woke us up so ended up moving that into 2nd room. Overall we got woken up loads but the location is good, next to the no 1 bus stop.

Wonderful Stay – Comfortable & Thoughtfully Managed! Stayed for 2 nights in Edinburgh and had a very pleasant experience. The property was extremely comfortable and well maintained. One of the best features was the option to use their waiting room if you arrive early or have a late flight – complete with bathroom and shower facilities to freshen up while your room is being prepared or after check-out. They also offer baggage storage, which made exploring the city so much easier. Overall, great value for money and I would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting Edinburgh!

The path to go to room was not good. Look like backyard have been converted to rooms. Not value for money
