Four nights stay with my mom

Warm and welcoming. Excellent location, great value for money. Some roofing work going on but there was zero noise or disturbance whatsoever. The beds are super comfortable, and rooms silent, so we slept well. Second time staying here, will be coming back. Craig is lovely and helpful, and we got to leave our luggage at the hotel for the day after checkout so we could go to Portobello for we had a late flight. Oh and I could just see Arthur's Seat from the room window :)

8/10 Very good

Nice stay

It was a good stay for one night.. we had to rush from the centre before 9 pm to avoid the late check in charge, which we cane to know only after booking! We did have a good night sleep. Breakfast is self catered. The kitchen facilitates were good. We were informed that TV channels didn’t work due to the work being carried out in the property. The property was not noisy 👍 It is well connected to the centre by a tram line just outside 👍 I’ll be happy to come back for a stay here again.

A nice place for family to stay

10/10 Exceptional

The Pillars was located in a nice area with pubs and restraunts. It is close to the tram and neighborhood shops. The staff were great... they provided us with infomation on local activities, and quickly responded to any questions we had. Cosy room and a nice, fully-kitted kitchen to use Would definitely stay there again

Little gem

A little gem of a find. About 200 yards from the tram stop. Last minute booking due to train delays when we had to change our plans. The check in was great. Fridge in the room had been stocked with iron bru, water, milk, and breakfadt cakes. Lovely staff. Would certainly use this venue again.

Does what it says on the tin. Good simple value accomodation. Really well equipped kitchen if looking to feed yourself or family, but yet close enough to cafes and such if not. Thanks
