Room was well appointed.
Fairly restricted GF options on the menu, but what I had was good. Not suitable for anyone with mobility issues, lots and lots of stairs and no lift.

Staff very friendly, nice bar,good price, Ample parking and free Bus right outside the hotel into city (which was my reason for choosing) Food in evening was good
Breakfast was a bit slow Buffett style but the staff did not keep on top of it. Often had to wait for fresh eggs and told a 20 min wait for Croissant’s NO LIFT and lots of steps, although only a couple of levels there were several up and downs along long corridors, so if you have mobility issues, definitely request ground floor room. However the staff did help with our cases Thank you

The location was great. It was very easy to hop on a local bus and get to the city centre. I to mention the building was very nice.
There wasn’t any lifts in the property. Had to climb to 3rd floor every time. For people who needs elevator, it’s a down side.

Close ro the centre but still quiet area Good breakfast, friendly staff, single bed is still a good size.
It was a bit dusty, rubbish under the airm chair, and a big chunk of hair blocked the shower drain.

Comfortable beds, accommodating staff, delicious breakfast, most excellent view of Edinburgh from room 308.
No air conditioning (which was fine), but the staff had the heat on. It was intolerably stuffy and warm in the rooms (esp after dragging all our luggage up to the third floor). There is no elevator / lift, could be a challenge for anyone disabled. They did provide a fan which was a great help. Bathroom was very cramped.

Good sized room with a view and a character. The bed was big and comfy, the shower ran a really good hot water, other than that it is a standard hotel.
No elevator and we had to have the key reset as the system they use is "temperamental". Single glazed window.

Beautiful building room nice and warm , important as it was cold during our stay .
Husbands hat fell on the floor inside the wardrobe and when picked up was thick with dust. Towel rail only hot half way up so bathroom was cold. Couldn't see through the window as the double glazing window panel was frosted up with water between the double glazing. Some of the stairs carpet ends were lose and if not attended to will become dangerous.
