Very comfortable, central place to stay
Lovely hotel with everything you could need. Staff were very welcoming and friendly and very helpful with any queries.
Only complaint, which didn’t in any way spoil our stay, was that the room was a bit cool at night and a couple of extra blankets would have been handy.

Very close to tourist activities . Good breakfast, nice rooms. But no pool, and not much to enjoy if you choose to remain at the facilities.

Tour Hotel in Edinburgh
We stayed two nights at the hotel at end of May 2024 as part of a tour of Scotland. The hotel is located fairly close to most of the tourist type attractions in Edinburgh but does not have the charm of older hotels. The room was clean and comfortable and it was quiet at night even though our room looked over the street on which the hotel was located. We ate breakfast at the hotel one morning (it was included with the tour we were on) and the wait staff was somewhat disorganized. The choices for breakfast (buffet or off the menu) were excellent and the off the menu dishes were fine. The one dinner (again, part of the tour) was just ok.

Great location, view of the castle
Super helpful front desk and amazing housekeeping. Beware of the hostess with the angry face at breakfast. She is the gatekeeper of guests and angrily stops anyone who enters without her permission. She seated my party of two at a narrow table with no place to set our luggage. I put it behind another table and was told I could not leave it there as the table was needed for other guests. There was nobody even waiting to be seated and there were many extra tables. She just didn’t want me to have my suitcase where I put it. Other than the stern-faced breakfast hostess, every other staff member was welcoming and kind.

Great location to explore Edinburgh. The rooms felt a little clinical with not much character, but were very comfortable. Great choice of breakfast.
Good choice of restaurants and bars around and really close to Edinburgj castle. We chose the hotel partly becuase of the sky bar with the view, but this was only open on weekends, and children are not allowed, which had we known we may have chosen a different hotel. Overall a comfortable stay and lovely hotel.
