This hotel has closed down and hasn’t notified Expedia or any other agent and is still taking bookings on their own website directly. Expedia gave me shocking customer service when I raised this with them. I spent 2 hours on the phone trying to get them to believe me. Total disaster. Avoid Expedia at all costs.

Wonderful night
Clearly a well used and well loved hotel with some marks on the bath panel and walls. But the room was spotless, not a hair or bit of dust anywhere! Staff were so welcoming and friendly, I feel bad for the poor lady who had to let me in at midnight when I couldn’t get the code to work but I do appreciate there’s always someone to help. Could be noisy but it’s above a lively pub so I cannot complain and the atmosphere was really nice :) I will be in the area every few months so I think I’m now a loyal customer of theirs :)

No use for families
Despite booking a family room only one bed available, we were promised the additional bed would be made up it wasnt. Breakfast was advertised as starting at 0730 we were informed on arrival that it would not be available to 0830. We would not have booked if we knew this. The TV did not work and no internet code was provided. Further there was loud music till the early hours

Room was beautiful and clean. Property fulfilled my request for simple birthday decoration for my room. Easy check in and check out. Property just next to train station, easily accessible to Edinburgh city. Those who feel pricey to stay at around Edinburgh city, please come stay here instead as it will save you a lot! Thanks Star and Garter hotel!

Good Location. Clean & Friendly
The hotel rooms are boutique styled and well provisioned with water and tea, coffee etc. Be aware - all rooms are on the top floor and there is no elevator. Staff were very friendly, Ahmed excellent. Breakfast was slightly disorganised which let the experience down.

Pleasant, clean and comfortable room with good facilities. Extremely friendly, cheerful and helpful staff. downside for some would be the fact that guests' rooms are on the top floor and there is no lift, but not a problem for me.

Friendly staff however i was disappointed that the bedroom carpet has large quantity of dirt stains. The whole bedroom carpet should be renewed. It transpires the previous guest had their folding bike in the bedroom that caused the staining. It was disappointing. We highlighted it to staff in the morning. The breakfast was lovely and cooked to my liking. Overall suggest management should ensure rooms are high quality and strive for not just being a 3star

The rooms are lovely and clean. Well made up. High up so quiet. Next to train station & convenient. OK for one night. Outside looks tired and would benefit from paint and upgrade.
