We will be staying in London for six nights before moving onto Edinburgh.

Right now was planning to take the train from London to Edinburgh.

Otherwise, the Mercer Street location has been my preferred location, though I stayed at the Leicester Square hotel and got a nice King room... I have not gotten a King room at the Mercer Street hotel.
