Staff were brilliant. The touch of prosecco in the room with the balloons and brownies with the congratulations message for our wedding was a lovely touch. Hotel was great overall. The only downside was only 1 lift in use, breakfast could be better and on the day of our wedding wanted to get a drink in the bar around 10.30 before going to reception but wasn’t served as apparently they don’t serve until 11am which I have never experienced in a hotel before. But overall we had a great stay

Location, check in
Was meant to be superior room! Sofa was peeling and had holes in it! Throw on bed obviously hadn’t been cleaned or changed! Cleaners woke us at 8.45! Then really loud banging started next door we thought someone was kicking door down and destroying room . Tried to go for shower when drilling started and thought they were coming thru wall so gave up! When your husband isn’t in great health and you treat yourself to a quiet night away! Not!

The reception staff were friendly— especially so with Anastasia. The rooms are clean.
Some rooms still needed going through stairs on the same floor to access. Luckily, the receptionist managed to give us rooms with no stairs.
The coffee machine at the restaurant produces some of the worst tasting coffees. I’ve been to the Glasgow Apex and that, surprisingly, has the best coffee machine I ever tried. Apex Waterloo needs to buy the same machine! .

The rooms were comfortable and nicely laid-out with furniture and all. I like the extra touches (and still have the rubber duck provided by the room). It was in a GREAT part of town, right by the train station, within steps of Calton Hill, a short walk to The Royal Mile, it was a great place.
Thank you for your information!
