The Guards Hotel

Great Location, Great staff, but...

Liked: Great location. Friendly staff.
Disliked: Shower pressure was not great. Front facing rooms suffer from very early morning street noise.

Loved it!

Liked: The location is amazing! And the room was so lovely and spacious.

Helpful owner, perfect location, but...

Liked: The owner was very friendly, she helped me to carry my luggage up to the top. The location is perfect if you want to travel by train, haymarket is just across the road, only 3 minutes to go.
Disliked: The room was on the very top, no lift or something. The bathroom was outside, but that was ok for me. The owner offered to give me a room with ensuite bath, but that would be with no window! I mean, who wants to stay in such a room, would be like in jail. My room was very small, and everything dated but unfortunately not in a charming way, just old. When I layed on the bed I sank in, the matress was much too soft, awfull. It was loud from people outside and my neighbours, thin walls. The bathroom looked extremely old and put together. For one night ok, but I wouldnt stay here again

Cheap clean hotel - good...

Liked: Basic hotel, comfortable, clean and cheap. Staff friendly and helpful. Did the job of a cheap place to stay.
Disliked: Was a bit dated and rustic. Had to pay by cash as the card machine was out.

Disliked: Bath leaked a bit.

Don't stay here

Disliked: Like beds had been made up from scrap wood on the day

Great

Liked: Good beds, very cosy and warm. Finally a good shower! Good location, some good restaurants in the area. Not too far from shops and near the station. The person who let us in (Kenny) was extremely helpfull and showed us around. He even went upstairs with us. I feel like this doesn’t happen anymore. So thank you Kenny for being so kind :)
