The property is located in a nice area, easily accessible. It does not offer a proper breakfast, but a dining space, coffee, tea, snacks, milk, bread and fruit. The hosts are really helpful. However, the price is quite high, although could not find better in Edinburgh.

We were made to feel very welcome and at home. Nice touch having fruit on the dining table for anyone to use, and croissants in room. Great location for heading into the city centre (walk or tram) or a wander round Leith.

I was really impressed by the level of communication from the Pillars. We had booked the room some 5 months earlier to see the military tattoo. Upon arrival, we were met by Craig, who went to great lengths to point out ways by which we could get the most of our trip to Edinburgh; eateries, pubs, clubs, etc. The room was lovely, comfy beds and lots of perks like a fridge in the room, biscuits, tea, coffee, croissants, water and other delights. The kitchen was well equipped and had yoghurt, muffins, fruit, etc, as well as water, ice and a huge fridge. There's a Tesco in easy walkibg distance and the hotel is directly on the Lieth/Airport tram route, with the tram stop being about a 4 minute walk away. Comfy, quirky, and convenient.

Wonderful stay - would highly recommend

Really impressed with this place, especially for the very fair price we paid. Convenient location about 200 yards from tram stop. Really spacious room which had small kitchen facility as added bonus. Staff friendly and luggage storage helpful. Only gripe was that our shower in the en suite bathroom did not work v well
