About On The Walk
Edinburgh Zoo makes for an easy outing from Albert Place, and with Edinburgh Waverley just 0.74 miles away, arriving by train and exploring the city centre on foot is straightforward. The surrounding streets have pubs, bars and restaurants within easy reach, and golf, fishing and watersports are all listed as nearby activities for those wanting to venture a little further.
On The Walk offers en-suite rooms with drinks available, and a 24 hour reception means check-in and any queries are handled at any time. Free WiFi is provided throughout. There's no parking available on site, so guests arriving by car should plan for this in advance, though the location near Waverley makes public transport a practical alternative.
It's a straightforward base for seeing Edinburgh, with entertainment and eating options close at hand and the zoo among the nearby attractions worth building into a visit.
What guests say
Honest review with good, medium and bad. I think is too easy to complain but let’s also do reviews about what went right. Nice things: Good location. Nice bedroom. Easy access, modern locks, plenty of power points, coffee machine, clean. Room for improvement: Wifi doesn’t work all the time but I also wasn’t in the room for wifi, no good phone signal, bed is ok a bit uncomfortable, hard mattress. What I really disliked: someone starts walking in the top floor at 6 am with the strongest, noisiest steps possible. Hard to sleep in with it. Just evaluate price vs. what you get. In this particular case I got it for very cheap and just staying one night so is ok. I think is a good option if your budget is tight, definitely a lot better than a hostel

Quirky decor. Clean and modern. Room had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Great location and good responsive staff (though reception less). Check in process was straight forward. Would happily stay again!

Stayed here for a night. The room was clean and good with all necessary supplies. Problems The door passcode was changed and we were not informed. Had to ring up the owner to get access - was responsive enough The heater was switched on the whole night with no control in the room. It was pretty hot even with the windows open and was a hassle. Had to ring up and ask them to switch it off and it was still not done.

Beautiful rooms! Very reasonably priced. Great decor. Very clean. Plenty of teas and coffees. Fridge with water. Great location! Loads of space. It's more like a suite so separate rooms. Few issues - too hot! Need to he able to turn the heating off. Although fans are provided. TV - difficult to figure out. I couldn't use Netflix as I needed a pin. Possible could of been sorted with a call or message. Room 7. Mirrors but no sockets near by. Bit of a pain for those who want to blow dry/straighten hair.
