Excelente alojamiento. Muy fácil de ubicar, el transporte que va desde el aeropuerto te deja muy cerca del lugar. Esta muy limpio y bonito pero sobre todo acogedor de acuerdo al clima de Edimburgo. Lo recomiendo totalmente y sobre todo un excelente precio ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.

The staff is amazing and helpful. The location is outstanding, near transportation, with great walkability. There is also amazing food and drink options. Highly recommended for anything from a coffee, a meal, or an overnight stay - or all of the above!

Beautiful setting and friendly staff. We didn’t try the food but it looked delicious.
Direct route on the bus into town center, very handy - would be a great place to stay for any rugby at Murryfield (just down the road a short trip on the local bus)

Rooms are up steep stairs in back of property. Parking is one hotel down behind Toby's next door to Torfin. Room had everything we needed but a fan and tissues. Jenna was extremely helpful.

The Torfin was clean and in a great area. It was very convenient to the airport and a short bus ride away from the city. There are great dining options near and a restaurant attached. The staff was so friendly and allowed us to store our bags in the morning because we arrived into the city early as well as helped us navigate public transportation!

While it was on a busy street and difficult to find where to park, the manager was amazing and helped us with our suitcases. The rooms are located above the restaurant and there is no elevator but it was only one flight of stairs. The room and bathroom were very clean and comfortable. There is no A/C so it was a little hot because we couldn't open the window.

They were very accommodating and could see how tired I was and the nice young man from behind the bar carried my bag for me up to the room. The room was amazing. It was beautifully clean and they really thought of everything. I had team and a hot shower before bed and after going down for an amazing burger and a pint. The atmosphere and decor was so well done and comforting.

An overnight stay for an early morning check in at Edinburgh Airport with airport bus stop a 5 minute walk away.
Staff very nice.
Had an issue with bathroom door but taken on board by staff and rectified very quickly.
Would stay again.
