Tranent Vacations from $2,334

Very cute hotel in the best location. Right at the bottom of Victoria street. Check in was great and the Staff was super helpful and friendly. Really enjoyed our two nights stay.

Staff were very helpful, they were able to provide us with a lot of information on the area. There was no parking at the hotel so we had to leave our vehicle at a paid parking lot about 10 minute walk away (closest one) it cost me £80 ($150CAD) which was an unexpected expense. The breakfast was lacklustre but it’s better than no breakfast which is the norm. An FYI for those travelling with kids, there is no elevator as it is an old building so be prepared to carry your things. The staff were helpful in that we were able to leave our stroller in the lobby and they helped lug our stuff to the 3rd floor.

It’s a backpackers hotel with tons of young people but also a lot of oldies like us. We booked one of the private rooms with an ensuite bathroom that included sheets and towels so we were fine with that. They have a locker room to store your luggage if you arrive before the 3 pm which they are very strict about. It was a dumb system for checkin because everyone had to stand in a long line when checkin started. Also I had done the pre-checkin online “to save time” but they made me present our passports anyway. Breakfast was a madhouse with all the young people but there were adequate continental items. The location is the main reason we picked it. It’s right next to the train station.

The staff were very accommodating and made the overall experience pleasant. They were attentive, friendly, and always ready to help with any requests. However, one issue I noticed was that the toilets didn’t flush properly, which was a bit inconvenient.otherwise great service.

Older property but well maintained. Check in and out was quick and easy, the staff was very friendly and helpful. The location was perfect, right in the middle of the city. We stayed in a family room and would absolutely stay here again.
