size of room. bed.

power kept cutting off

I would stay again, a reasonably priced central hotel with modern features. Service is ok. There is a lot to do in the centre of the city so it must be good to be there if you can. I would go up to the royal mile and see the castle. But overall I would recommend staying at the Carlton.

Proximal to attractions

Internet usage fees were unnecessarily high

The hotel was fairly nice as well as close to attractions and the train station. The staff was very helpful and pleasant. The lower level entrance was poorly marked and poorly situated. The room had no view and the TV was small. The room was dark. I found Agoda to be far too complicated a service to be worthy of future use.

Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : Near to the Royal Mile

Location, Staff, Breakfast, Facilities

In relation to the room we got it was a bit noisy and I know this happens in alot of hotels but 2 single beds together is not a double bed.

To be honest there are far more pro's than cons regarding the Carlton. The Location with regards to what Edinburgh has to offer is ideal - walk left for old part (Royal Mile), walk right for new town. It really is the best location to explore from. Friendliness of staff, facilities available and the breakfast are also worth a mention.

Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : The Camera Obscura building up near the top of the Royal Mile is a must. Tricks of vision, hologram fun and lots more - some of it is even quite creepy! You can even catch your shadow! It's basically 4 floors of holograms and tricks of the eye - all very interactive.

Location is not to say, I did not have to take the view from the window. If you think of someone to leave my luggage at the hotel before I arrived the day of check-in hotel, vacant rooms are generous, helped me a check. Very clean rooms休Memashita slowly. Although breakfast was not about, you can put on 5 pounds. I ask because the long-awaited, is very happy. If the front is also unfamiliar to me in English, concise speaking slowly I have no problem.

None, I just stretched it to say that value. The room was maybe inevitable that at that location. I was traveling alone, because many elderly visitors your organization is not so for a single hotel.

Uebari station nearby, just to get to the Old Town or New Town. Originally a large town, but would have lost the first place knowing right and left, this hotel is also easy to find located on the edge of Northbridge take. Your little high but worth it I think. They also large enough room is clean. I just had a tattoo in the city was full of people but, in the hotel is very quiet. It is also泊Maritai.

Shopping Tip : Close to shopping malls (Purinshizumoru), and Pizza Express is located next door. Clothing, food is困Rimasen.
