Excellent location. Nice rooms. Comfortable beds. We saved money by not getting a castle view room. But I wished we had a view.
Stairs to the elevator. Grateful for the elevator.

Fantastic location - within walking distance of all the sights in Edinburgh. Room was a good size and clean with everything we needed. Breakfast was nice but would prefer fresh tea and coffee rather than machines.
Tea and coffee from machines rather than fresh from the kitchen.

Poor
Great location
Room was unbearably hot, on a cold day in April. I would hate to stay there in summer! TV didn’t work, bathroom plugs broken. Barely slept due to the heat and left ahead of a long drive, feeling exhausted. Paid extra for a castle view room but the windows were filthy. Disappointing and overpriced
