Breakfast was nice. Bus stop near the hotel. Wifi was good
Rooms need to be updated. They dont feel new. Stairs can make it difficult for people with accessibility issues.

Love the unique touches such as the zoo mural. We have stayed multiple times now & this time we had dinner in the restaurant which was very nice. As always the staff were the highlight, always friendly & helpful.

Very Good
Really great location for the zoo ( you could hear the animals at night when outside !) with amazing views from the lobby The staff were very friendly and helpful. The check in was quick and simple, parking was free and easy which was great. It is lovely and modern inside the lobby, the room was very clean with comfortable beds. Th breakfast choices were great for us and the kids, and we all slept well . Lots of games and toys in the lobby.
Bathroom looking a bit tired in areas, wood around the base of the bath needs replacing. We didn't like that our room was connected to another room with a locked door , the other guests were very loud and it was a bit unnerving for the kids having people 'next door' that they didn't know. If we had been staying for longer than one night I would have requested a different room. we looked into using the swimming pool but it was quite small and very busy so we decided not to swim.

The hotel and room were very clean both inside and outside. The bed was large and comfortable. The shower had plenty of hot water and great water pressure. The WiFi was fast and easy to connect with. The price was very reasonable for Edinburgh.
There were only a limited amount of on-site parking spots at the hotel, but there is a partnership with the zoo to allow hotel guests to park in the zoo parking until 10am when the zoo opens. The hotel was a little far from the city center, but there was a public bus stop right across the street.

Staff was friendly and helpful! Private car park was great since parking is so limited in the city.
There is no lift for the lower car park and there isn't a lot of space at the front entrance to unload / load luggage. We were on the 4th floor and while I saw staff cleaning the corridors still seemed very dingy. The bottom of the doors in our room also look damaged, as if maybe the room had flooded at one time.

The staff are very friendly, especially in the restaurant.
It is very difficult to enter the property on foot without using stairs. I had a pram and often had to pull it up stairs. When I asked if there was a step-free way out I was directed through the staff car park and into a road. The pillows were lumpy mounds. The baby cot had no sheet and was too hard and uncomfortable to sleep in.
