Lantern House was is ideal for people who just want a place to stay in a convenient position in Edinburgh and don't want full hotel facilities. It was clean, quiet and handy with lots of places to eat within easy reach. We wanted to come and go as we wished without time constraints and this was perfect.

Very close to many cool places of the city and not far from the centre. It's annoysing to have to communicate exactly the arrival time. Considering the price they could include breakfast

Excellent place to stay for a young couple. Located near to John Lewis' and Princes Street. Only about a ten min walk from the Royal Mile. Clean, comfy accomadation. Excellent value for money. We have stayed in Edinburgh before, on the Royal Mile and found this location much quieter but still as convenient for sight seeing and night life. Would stay there again.
