Rugby stay

The raj is ideally placed for rugby internationals, being about 10 minutes on foot from the murrayfield stadium;10 minutes and thirty minutes, respectively, from edinburgh haymarket and waverley stations. the hotel is clean and economical with helpful staff and my room was very comfortable with en-suite facilities and a nice tv. however, if you need a meal on a saturday evening in edinburgh, the hotel does not have a restaurant, and the local amenities are very busy. my advice would be to book your table in advance.

Not quite 'last days of the raj'

Indian themed decor did not enhance our experience. breakfast room uncomfortable with armchairs and low tables to eat at. blankets were very harsh and pilled and, despite our putting on the extra blanket each night, this was removed when the room was made up. i would have expected them to realise that we needed the warmth and keep it on! no toiletries were provided on arrival and when we requested some, all we got was soap and shampoo - no shower gel. parking was on a nearby road, but we found space easily.
