Very close to the castle and grass market, convenient central location and having a fridge and hob in the room saved from eating out 3 meals a day which was handy.
The “castle view” was not anything like the imagery shown in any of the room listing pictures, in fact, I suspect these might not be real.
There’s no way any of the castle view studios actually achieve the view shown in the photos.
I did have a castle view, but it was from a single (quite grubby) angled velux window so it wasn’t much of a view at all really unless you were stood directly under it.

Sehr nobles Hotel.

The location is very prominent to Edinburgh Castle (5mins uphill stairs), the grassmarket, Victoria street and others. Along the streets, there are plenty of restaurants and bars. Continental breakfast has a lot of varieties.
None.

It was in a really good central location, lobby/bar area looked really cosy but we didn't spend any time there. Staff member who checked us in was friendly.
I was a bit disappointed with the room, I had paid extra for a castle view, we could see the castle but only if we went right up to the window and looked up. The photos I'd seen online showed the castle directly from the bed, so I was under the impression we would be able to see the castle from the window regardless of where we were in the room, instead we could just see a wall and parking meter. If I'd have known this I wouldn't have booked and paid extra for a castle view. It was pretty noisy on the night outside of the hotel as it's next to student accomodation and we could hear everybody walking past, it might be better to ask for a room at the back and not the front of the hotel. We found the bed quite uncomfortable and didn't really get much sleep, it's hard to get in and out of and so high up, if you have mobility issues I'd give this one a miss.
The room was clean but for the amount of money paid I don't think it was worth it sadly, there were no added extras like it shows on some of the online photos, there was also a big scuff mark on the flooring. It didn't feel very luxury or cosy. I really wanted to love this hotel as I'd been so excited for months to come here and maybe we just got unlucky with our room but it fell short.
