Great Cost X Benefit
Near the Tram and Buses Stop. Restaurants, Shops and Supermarkets around the block. Nice bathroom and new shower. Coffee and Tea available at the room. I do recommend for a short stay.

Jonathan, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Ideally placed on the tram link from.airport but still walkable up to the port and into the city. Lots of dining options on Leith road. Room was just as needed for a 2 night stop over to explore the area.

Smith Place Hotel is no frills but was comfortable and the room was a good size. The only issue we had was that the wifi was very intermittent.

The front desk lady was so nice! She expedited my room so I can check in early. It was a good stay, quiet, and public transport was close by.

Stayed overnight for an embassy appointment, very accessible to transport, coffee shops and stores nearby. Staff friendly and very accommodating. Toilet and shower room modern, clean and tidy.
Rovie, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This location and hotel were perfect for my short stay as a solo traveler. The bathroom was clean, the staff was the absolute best, they had delicious cookies in the room and candy at reception. The women at the reception were knowledgeable, sweet, caring and helpful. I would definitely come back here if I'm in Edinburgh. The location is walkable; you can walk to the closest tram/bus stations and have tons of shopping and dining options you could walk to and make the most out of your time in Edinburgh.

Manju, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

I liked the access code system for getting into your room, very good for flexibility. Nice room and very clean. However, I found the staff difficult to contact & the mattress was like a hammock, needs replacing.
2-night trip

6/10 Good

Our stay for a night was ok but it's not the worth of money you spend for a night. We could have got more in this budget. Like free parking and breakfast.
qauser, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

They didn’t mention on the website that there’s no window. The room was like prison cell. There’s no one at night to help,The wifi doesn’t work at all.going off and on.Better to stay a bit expensive but with facilities.we didn’t enjoy at all to be honest.
Shah Muhammad, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The location is great. However, Room 4 is very small and the bed is old and sags in the middle, so very uncomfortable.
Ruth, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

No WiFi on the first day. The room was tiny and the bed was less comfortable than a couch. The staff was nice although not always available and they sometimes chatted loudly in the hallways. The walls are thin and you can hear everyone’s footsteps. Considering the price, I would stay elsewhere.
Clarence, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

It was ok. Beds are not good. Floors are creeky. Not soundproof rooms. Great location n ambience. Check-in was quick.
KIRAN, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Parking has been nightmare, i guess i didn't see any reviews on it. Had to park in a multistorey and get a cab over. Not great having a open floir shower. Overall, paid four star prices for a 2 hotel.
