Real Guest Experiences & Ratings
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Princes Street Suites is often praised for its excellent location, just minutes from Waverley train station and close to the Royal Mile, Victoria Street, and a variety of restaurants and shops. Guests frequently highlight the spaciousness of the apartments, especially the 3-bedroom options, which offer comfortable bedrooms and well-equipped kitchens. The rooftop terrace access, with its 360° views of Edinburgh, is another commonly appreciated feature; however, some guests have mentioned noise from the nearby train station at times. The availability of amenities such as a washing machine is seen as very convenient.

fresh paint early deliveries
The studio apartment seemed nice at first glance. I noticed some areas needing fresh paint. My room was on level -3 and it was like a basement. This level seemed to be the hotel's service area. I saw trolleys with cleaning supplies and new beds near my room. Deliveries woke me up around 6 AM due to noise. I had to open the windows because there was no air conditioning, so I could also hear announcements from the nearby train station.

Reasonable stay with some drawbacks

train station easy walk drying rack old carpet bedroom door color change
i stayed in the three-bedroom apartment. it was huge with plenty of room. the location was very close to the train station , and it was an easy walk over to the royal mile. it was very handy to have a washing machine and drying rack in the apartment.
the apartment i booked was outdated. the carpets were old with stains. also , the walls needed to be painted because of color change. one bedroom door wasn't closing at all.
