Rooms were very small, pretty basic. Ihad to climb over the bed to get to the wardrobe as there wasn't space to walk past the bed.
Breakfast was cooked but again basic.

We had a great stay at Cairns Hotel, the location is great in a peaceful street walking distance to everything in the city centre. We were upgraded for free to a one bedroom apartment. The staff were very friendly and helpful. There were lots of nice touches included. The room was comfortable and quiet with everything you need. Would definitely stay again, good value in an ever expensive world!

Very friendly staff. Room was ready earlier than expected. Everything was as it should be. Quite a small room though for the price

Good location. Apartment was clean and nice. Good wifi. Nice shower and variety of lights in the room. Walls are thin, meaning could hear other guests easily which wasn’t great.

Fantastic break at this hotel. We stayed in the family apartment room and loved it. Very clean and comfortable, with some lovely added extras. Can’t recommend this place enough.

My friends and I had a great stay at the Cairn Hotel! We were in an apartment style room that had everything we could possibly need for our 3 nights (comfortable beds, multiple mirrors, a space heater, etc). We felt safe in the room itself and the location overall is great, only about a 15-20 minute walk from the Royal Mile and Holyrood Palace. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a safe and comfortable stay in Edinburgh with nice and welcoming employees.

Great stay! My friend and I were seeing a show at the playhouse and this hotel was perfect! Also so close to the centre, great service and lovely quiet room, very comfy great shower, recommend and would stay again!
3.0
Nice 3 bedroomed apartment. However, they made mistakes checking us in which led to multiple transactions from our bank
and also our shower for the 3 nts we stayed didn't work. I did not like they physically took a £250 deposit from us rather than hold it (we did not know prior that this would happen) and only refunded upon checking the room when we departed. However, multiple basic rules posted around the apartment made us scared we would not get it back. Luckily we did. The room was basic, it's unserviced, so you get limited towels and cutlery, but it worked for us. Other than this, it's a decent apartment (majorly overpriced for what you get, but that's Edinburgh for you). Lovely staff

It was great.

Area was slightly outside city center. Limited parking.
Staff was extremely unhelpful. Did not offer solutions not smile nor help.
Room was dated but had smart tv. Big and clean. Basic toilet. Had a minor drainage provlem that required front desk to rectify.
Please do not book a stay here if you have alot of luggage. On top of having to stay in a separate building, with multiple steps, we were given a room in the basement, with a very steep flight of stairs. Staff did not give us a room at ground floor despite requesting. Was not helpful at all. Totally marred our experience. Would not stay again.
4.0
Honestly the worst place we stayed for a two week trip. The photos when booking were light and bright rooms. Instead we got put in a basement with the only window in the bathroom and that only made it freezing. The front desk staff was less than helpful upon check in. While the listing shares that parking is available the check in staff said “if you’re lucky” you’ll find a spot on the street, otherwise the parking would cost extra. The checkout staff was much more welcoming and friendly but unfortunately that was after a loud sleepless night due to hearing every upper level door close and ever other toilet flush and shower turn on. Close to restaurants but overall would not return and not even in the same building as breakfast or the bar. Not even close to what was expected and an overall disappointment.

A nice hotel about 10 minutes walk from the train station. On a quiet street but close enough to the busier parts of town if that's what you're looking for.
My room looked to have been refurbished recently, or was being well maintained, and was very clean. The breakfast is a standard buffet but was decent.
Staff were friendly.
All in all, a really nice stay.
4.0
Situated near the city centre with restaurants within walking distance or a short taxi tide away. The staff are very helpful and welcoming. The room we had was relatively small which wr knew beforehand. However the Tv is just above bed level at the foot end. This meant the person who sleeps on one side of the double bed had to contort to get pass the foot of the bed when getting up. If they are not careful their back gets caught on the TV. Pethaps having it a bit hogher would prevent this.

Excellent location, comfortable beds. Initially seemed clean enough except the floor was dusty (fluff & dust on socks after walking in room) & in parts dirty which for vinyl flooring would be an easy fix they it was washed between guests

Found a disabled parking space directly outside the hotel. Staff were very helpful and friendly.
Slept very well and had a hearty breakfast.
We had trouble with air in the water system but nothing else to say.

Friendly staff, always welcome as I was travelling on my own. Room fairly small but high ceilings so didn't feel claustrophobic. It did smell a bit musty when I first went in, but was too tired to say anything to staff. Next morning when running the sink taps, smell was a lot stronger, my guess is that previous guest smoked in the bathroom. I was only staying one night so hotel didn't have chance to rectify and I wouldn't want to give the helpful staff a bad review on what I am assuming is an unfortunate one-off due to the bad behaviour of previous guest. Location was great - walkable from Edinburgh Waverley and pubs and takeaways nearby. I think it can be a lively area but I was staying mid week in October and wasn't disturbed by any noise.

Nice comfortable handy for theatre and city center. Tv didn't work first night due to being faulty no fault of the hotel but was replaced next day

Very central, but it did say small double and it certainly was - 8 inches from bottom bed to wall. I was there for work and needed a small table to work but not possible. Nice fresh bathroom. Breakfast room good with nice outside area for good weather.

Service was fine but the room was rather disappointing. It was basically a basement room with no window. I was expecting a better room given the price.

The hotel looks good and has a great location. The room had a high ceiling and was in a good shape. I just didn't sleep well because flushing the toilet makes the pipes in the walls vibrating and making a loud noise for very long minutes. I did that during the night and I probably woke up the whole hotel. Then the electric box started to make some annoying noise as well in the middle of the night. i managed to switch off the electricity in room by removing the card from the socket at the entrance. Well, not a good sleep, bad infrastructure, not worth the price.
