The room I got was very spacious with a large window, TV, phone and two bathrooms (bath, shower/toilet) and there was free WiFi access, staff were friendly. Breakfast was average. Free parking was available at the hotel's private car park. Oh, and there's a bus stop less then 50 yards from the hotel entrance that is served by some main lines.

everyone at the hotel were kind and helpful but the rooms and all the hotel seems old. it's not so bad but the prices are too high for this place.

The room was a double (although I ended up traveling alone). As it was, I felt comfortable in the room - it might have been a bit small with two people in it. Otherwise, it was a lovely room, a lovely guest house. My room faced the street so there was some noise, but quieted down at night. I could hear guests arriving late at night which woke me once or twice. They have a beautiful glass-covered terrace for breakfast. Great service both at front desk and from the breakfast staff. Excellent access to public transportation with buses and cabs running by the hotel constantly, even on Sunday. Check out the Metropole Cafe about two blocks away for a reasonably priced peaceful meal and good music. Take a walk thru the neighborhood behind the hotel to reach Arthur's Seat - stunning views of Edinburgh.

I enjoyed my stay at the hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel consists of two buildings, the south building has larger (and fancier) rooms (these are the ones you see on the website), but both buildings are clean and well maintained. The front rooms face a busy street and a not as quiet as the back rooms. I didn't find the noise to be objectionable. If you're accustomed to a modern, double glazed, hermetically sealed hotel room 30 stories above the city you are visiting, you might notice the noise a bit more... When we were there (June 2007), they were upgrading the plumbing and installing new downspouts. Good to see an old building being maintained. Breakfast was good and there is front parlour to sit in. Wireless internet is free, but it is located next to the parlour in the north building, and does not reach to the south building in a reliable manner. It would be nice to have a repeater in the south building so that the signal would be available from those rooms as well. Mind you, having free internet access at all is a great bonus. All in all, I'd return.

We stayed in Edinburgh for 5 days. The Hotel was very good, clean and the staff very kind. Breakfast was good. The location was very good, twenty minutes from the center.

This hotel was very clean and the furnishings in our room very nice. We enjoyed our little gas fireplace with blower! The people were friendly and helpful and the building felt very secure. The hotel is on a busy street so you'll hear sirens and cars during the night. But, on the other hand there are decent restaurants within walking distance and public transportation is right outside the door. Our bathroom had a faucet that leaked water in a steady stream so we had to shut the bathroom door at night. The water at the hotel when we filled the tub was very brown, I don't know if that's a plumbing issue or a citywide problem. Also, the lights in the bathroom were burned out, but there was enough natural light so didn't need extra lighting. I forgot to tell the people at the desk about this problem and I'm confident they would have been right up to replace the bulbs. The beds were comfortable and we had a good nights' sleep before heading out to return home. The breakfast room is quite cheery and breakfast menu adequate. It's located about 8 miles from the airport. Coming in the taxi charged $34 USD and going back, the cab fare was $40. GO figure.

Really enjoyed our stay at Thrums'. The room was clean and quiet. 30 min walk from the city centre.
