Try the Claremont.





14 Claremont Cres


Edinburgh, EH7 4HX


0131 556 1487





We drove into Edinburgh without a hotel reservation. One of our travel books listed the Claremont Hotel. It was easy to find and is located on a quiet tree-lined street about 4 blocks off Princes Street in the Broughton/Calton Hill area. We were given the last available room (of about 20 rooms total). It was huge (easily 500 sq feet) and had one king bed and 3 twins. We only needed the king but it would be a great room for a family. There were also a couple of chairs, a wardrobe, desk, and television. The en-suite was small with a large shower. Breakfast is included and served in a large dining room on one of the lower levels. There is also a bar on the premises that serves until 11. A big plus for us was the free parking in the back of the hotel.





The hotel is two adjoining rowhouses and the owner/manager lives in a flat in one of the buildings. As these were built as homes, the floors creak a bit and you can hear more than in a traditional hotel. If a little noise disturbs you, this is not the place for you.





The staff were friendly and helpful, and the owner even let us check into our room at 9am for no extra cost.





They charge based on the number of occupants and at only 拢28 per person with breakfast in a great location, it is a great deal. I would stay here again.



as there are so many of you, the hotel might be a bit put off,. you might want to try - gasp - a hostel..? I would suggest hitting website such as http://www.hostelworld.com/
