The breakfast was good. There were hot breakfast options and the service was good. The staff was generally attentive.The hotel was located a 10-minute walk from Victoria Street, so there was no need to take the bus.
Frankly, it's a bit dated. There's no minibar in the rooms, no water. And I couldn't dry my hair in the bathroom. The bathroom leaked terribly from above one night. The problem was resolved, but frankly, it was disappointing to encounter such surprises at this price. So, in terms of price/performance, I give it a 6 out of 10.

I liked the location, the architecture and the space in the room is fantastic for 2 people, the attention from personal is good
The breakfast was just basic , we took it just once and the maintenance and clean can be better

Hostess were always welcoming and helpful. The location of the hotel is ideal to connect to key parts of the city whether for tourism or business and it is near the university.
I didn't like the fact that room cleaning services in the rooms have odd schedules, either too early or too late. They left all the linings collected during the morning thrown out in the corridors almost all day. Thus, carpets were not very clean. I have to skip room cleaning several days during my 8 day stay because of that to the point that I have to run down to ask for additional tea bags since they didn't do it during cleaning. The hotel is pricey to have that sort of problem.

The building was beautiful and historic. I appreciate how close it was to the Royal Mile.
Not very close to the Tram station and still a bit of a walk to the Royal Mile.
