The place is nice and clean. Cheaper than other hotels. I stayed there to sleep and it was comfy. 4days passed by so fast. I will definitely recommend Cairn to my friends. :)

Great location. Friendly, helpful staff. Clean apartments.
The apartment we stayed in was spotless and the beds were very comfortable. Up several flights of (spiral) stairs though, and no lift. Not a problem for us, and we were aware beforehand, however. Could have done with a comfortable chair or two in the seating area.

We were there for a specific reason as I had to be at a meeting next morning and it was located handy for that. Also for a theatre, OMNI centre which has food places and a cinema.
Our room was across the street which had not been explained to us when booking. I have a mobility problem which flares up badly at times and when I asked the receptionist if there was a lift she simply told me - these are old buildings. I took that as a NO and I was correct. Never mind I should have checked. The room was advertised as a "small double bed" which was OK. But, what wasn`t explained was the fact that the double bed wasn`t small - rather there was only a few inches between the bed and the wall at the foot so it meant one had to squeeze/slither past the end of the bed to reach the loo. The loo was "different" inasmuch as sitting on the loo meant your head was actually over the sink. It was tiny. The shower was great apart from black mould on the grout on the lower line of tiles. There was a loose tile inside the door. However, to be fair, the loo area was otherwise pristine.

The location was excellent and within walking distance to many attractions such as Edinburgh Castle and Bontanic Gardens. It had tons of restaurants nearby, which was great. The room was across the street from the reception and breakfast area in a lovely building and was very quiet. The reception staff were nice. There is a heated towel rail which was convenient when I wanted to wash out my delicates. The bed was comfortable and the shower was great! The breakfast was good, a few hot dishes to choose from, juices, toast etc. and although I didn't ask whether they had gluten free bread, there was gluten free cereal so that was good. The only thing that would have made it more pleasant would be if the staff greeted you with a hello and smile (although they did keep everything tidy and stocked).
The hotel room was a little small i.e. the door hit the bed on the way in, but since it was really only a place to lay our heads after touring, it didn't worry us too much. The bathroom however was VERY small, e.g. the wash basin pretty much takes up half the doorway and you almost have to sit side saddle on the toilet which is not pleasant.

The power outlets didn't work apart from the bathroom one. Problem wasn't fixed during my stay, fortunately I had a powerbank with me.

The location was perfect, 15 minutes walk from the train station.
The staff was very helpful.
The breakfast was not particularly tasty (scrambled eggs, sausages, and not very tasty).
I found the price to be quite high for a single bed small room.
I had to pay extra to leave my bags at the reception.
It was quite cold in the room.

The reception staff were so receptive, very welcoming and accommodating. The wait staff were pleasant.
Not a complaint as such but because the room was so compact it got very stuffy at night. A small observation on a very pleasant stay over all.

Very comfortable and spacious rooms and very good breakfast for the price paid.
The hotel is a bit far from the old town of Edinburgh and most tourist destinations, approximately 20 min walking.

We loved our two rooms here! It exceeded my expectations and we had a really comfortable stay over New Year. The staff were friendly and the breakfast had good options for a low price.
One small thing was upon arrival our bathroom had a terrible sewer smell, we told the front desk and they sprayed air freshener which masked it for us and it did thankfully go away in the days after that but it wasn't too pleasant to walk into at first.
10.0
Staff was super helpful and friendly. The room was large, very clean, quiet location, and comfy bed. No serious complaints at all. Next to a beautiful park with a great sunset view of the city.
A bit farther from the airport and main train station, but not too difficult to reach on foot. This was known beforehand.
