The staff was friendly, the food delicious and it was a great location. Even though there is a lively restaurant/bar on the ground floor, there was no noise noticeable in our room. I would absolutely recommend a stay at Rabble while visiting Edinburgh!

Great location, nice and comfortable rooms. The restaurant and bar gets very busy and loud at night, but as soon as you go upstairs to the rooms you can't hear anything

Difficult to move luggage since there is no elevator. Our room was on ground level with window facing a small alley. There were a couple of drunken incidents at late night made our room stay a bit uneasy. Especially the hotel has no manpower between 1am to 7am.
