You get what you pay for the Travelodge Waterloo Place is an excellent budget hotel, great location, modern, no thrills, just a great place to spend the night. Highly recommended for a cheap night's accommodation. Its very hard to to find fault for the price. Don't expect luxury, its clean and modern and in the centre of Edinburgh, it does... More

The hotel is just a few minutes walk from Edinburgh Waverley Station so it was ideal for our one night stopover in the city on the way to a wedding. We had a family room which was basic but good value for money at £53 and very quiet so we had a great sleep. We would stay there again.

Our family was big. Very big. They Could have put three double beds in it. And it was clean. And, it was very close to the Royal Mile. For those reasons it was good. However, it was no frills. The room was barren other than the beds and a desk and very simple plastic chair. It did have a TV... More

We only stayed one night as that is what we needed but it was a great location, very central I would recommend it! It was also very comfy and the price was very reasonable. Very friendly staff. The room was just a good size for us, just for two people very cosy.

You would find it very difficult to get a better area to stay in for anything near the price that is often on offer at this hotel. Staff are friendly and do their best considering they are often very stretched and struggling to meet the demands of customers. Rooms are very basic so don't pay too much. There are very... More

It was the May Bank holiday weekend and we managed to get two nights for £25 each for this hotel. It was the first time that we'd used this TL, as we didn't have the car with us (it's very central and doesn't have a car park). Service at check in and when we had to have the room keycard... More
