We ended up at the Albion by pure fluke as the hotel we booked had double booked us. We were not disappaionted with the Albion which made all the inconvience worth it. A great hotel with a great location. Staff were only happy to help, arranging us a nice restaurant for our anniversary. Rooms were large and very clean. A very good standard 3 star hotel. Couldnt ask for more.

Checked in for a two night stay on 27th May. Room No 8 is one of the (two) attic rooms. It was nicely enough appointed but too small for two tallish people especially as one had to carefull not rise out of the twin bed under the eave side as you might get a nasty bump. The ceiling window allowed daylight but did make you feel somewhat trapped. However Helen the receptionist (who also has a hand in cooking your full Scottish breakfast in the morning) graciously agreed to let us have room 4 the next day which had three twin beds in it and a large front facing window.

Each room has pretty much everything you need to enhance your stay including a trouser press, iron/ironing board, hairdryer, fan for the summer, kettle with tea/coffe sachets, litle mini fridge so that you can keep whatever you have to keep cold.well....er...cold!!

The bathroom is equally well appointed and there is a little sign to help guide you to now and again ( didn't happen to me at all)expect a water pressure drop but with clear instructions on how to take a second to remedy this by simply lowering the showerpray to the ground and raising it again.

Breakfast is included in your stay and you can help yourself to cereals, fruit juice and coffee as you wait to have your hot breakfast order taken (just ask for variations of the main breakfast if that's all you want e.g poached/scrambled egg).

I think it's a lovely place to stay where you're left with your own key to come and go as you please. More like staying in a big house than a hotel.

Would easily recommend this well located hotel.

On arrival we wre given room 12 room (first floor). Would definately advise asking for this room as its very spacious and has a double and single bed. Staff were very friendly and the breakfast was amazing and there was plenty of it. Great location right next to the underground station and only a short walk to city centre.

Arrived at the hotel but had to check in and dash out - the rooms were alright, the beds very small however and wooly blankets instead of duvets. Attic room with a skyline window which almost mained my companion when she tried to close the blind, so ended up sleeping with the blind open! Shower room really small and problems with the water supply - air blockaged I believe. Bathroom way too hot and couldn't adjust the heating, bedroom really chilly and couldn't adjust the heating.

Breakfast ok - no choice of how you want your eggs done - and no choice of brown/white bread - given barely toasted squashy white bread not particularly good. Fairly cheap so can't really moan!
