Good
Breakfast was very good.
The mattress could have been softer, probably the firmest mattress I have ever slept on. It wasn’t good for me, rubbish nights sleep.

Our room was really clean and comfortable, the hotel is in a great location just off the Royal mile, it was quiet at night so was able to sleep comfortably. Staff are friendly and helpful. A really nice hotel, would definitely stay here again.
The coffee wasn’t very nice from the machine at breakfast.

room was nice, location was decent, the bar was nice and quiet,
breakfast was chaos, food ran out to quickly, no cups or glasses, we had to keep asking for simple things like a fork, waitress gave a dirty look when i asked for our plates to be taken,

Great value for money. I didn't realise the breakfast is included so that was great. Good selection for breakfast. Relaxed atmosphere. Very friendly staff.
Clean rooms, fab shower and comfortable beds.
A relaxing place to return to after busy days out exploring Edinburgh. We had a great stay. Thank you.
No problems.

The check in was easy, the staff friendly, a great location walking distance from everywhere. There’s a car park on the next street, the room was clean and breakfast was nice
Everything is by QR code I didn’t check this till later on where it said they did pizzas. We had just left the hotel before this for takeaway pizza, think this should be more apparent as I would have stayed in the hotel
