The location worked great for us because it was not right in the center of town but close enough and easy enough to get anywhere.
The room was beautiful! We loved the large room with high ceilings and the wonderful view of the park. Everyone was friendly and helpful, the hotel was beautiful and the food and drinks were great.
Noise from the patio is audible in the park facing rooms. Mostly it was fine but Saturday night was loud with a group leaving a party that hung around outside at 1 am making a lot of noise.

Room was small but comfortable. nice restaurant and bar downstairs, serving local and international fare. staff's very kind and attentive. beautiful park right outside. neighbourhood is quiet and seems safe, and only about 20 min walk away from the city centre.

The rooms were fantastic, super cosy and comfy and also huge for the price.
We needed to be up and out early in the morning and the staff organised a early cooked breakfast for us on both days which was really kind.
Beautiful location next to the park too, we walked into town each day which was lovely.
Thanks again for everything!!!

Near wonderful park and amenities. Large room. Staff helpful when asked.
Not really a four-star hotel, rather, it is some back-end rooms attached to a trendy bar and eatery. Therefore, no public lobby or other rooms; a bar and restaurant do not qualify. Overpriced for what it is. The numerous pictures and other fake-boutique elements are annoying because they are all so cheap and there is no love shown in the concepts or their execution. The stock pictures are attached with front-showing screws, fresh from Ikea. Junky advertisements piled up in bathroom; again, no love.

The room was very spacious, good decor and well kept.
Hotel was in a good location.
The room had no refrigerator.
TV had poor selection of channels and was dated on terms of the features and no apps.

Friendly staff, good food, although not many options
No telephone to ask for more stuff, but maybe someone available if I had used my phone instead of going down the stairs in person

Wonderful
1. The best breakfast I've had in my life. Abundance of choice and very delicious.
2. Very friendly and ready-to-help staff.
3. Beautiful rooms and a view at the park.
1. There was no hot water - I mean, the hottest option was really cold.
2. There is a restaurant on the ground floor, and on Saturday, guys who likely celebrated a birthday were shouting under windows until 00:35. I'd expect the administration of the hotel to take care of these situations and/or maybe close the restaurant earlier. Given that we lived on the 1st floor, it was a real disappointment.

Reception was friendly and helpful. We loved the hand-written booklet from staff listing their favourite things in Edinburgh. The room was very clean and facilities all good. The bed was good with a firm mattress. The location is across from a busy park and it's a pleasant 30 min stroll through there into the old town. Or a shorter walk to Bruntsfield Place with plenty of shops and restaurants, and a bus stop to multiple destinations. Very nice restaurant and staff downstairs, where we had some breakfasts and dinners.
The room was a bit squeezy and quite a few stairs to get to our room.
