Breakfast was wonderful. Staff was very helpful. Although expensive it was not very far off the Royal Mile be prepared the climb us the Close was steep and cobblestone.
It was expensive but cheaper than staying on the Royal Mile.

Very Good
Helpful staff; found a room on floor one - as requested when I checked in. Breakfast was standord Holiday Inn Express fare; good but not exceptional. Hotel situated near to major tourist attractions; e g the Royal Mile, Many restaurants and pubs/bars close by. Hotel was quiet and despite being full there was no noise from other guests or from outside the building
The breakfast room was located in the cellar; quite sizeable but lacked the important feature (for a guest) of seeing the weather!

The staff were very friendly and helpful. A leaking shower head was repaired immediately it was mentioned. The breakfast was good with plenty to choose from. Location was good once we found the hotel.
Would have liked another comfortable chair and bathroom bottles not topped up or coffee replaced. Had to ask at desk.

It was very close to everything I wanted to visit and the facilities were just fine!
I really don’t have anything negative to say about my stay, but if I had to give a tip; outlets on either side of the bed would be highly convenient. There was an outlet on one side of the bed only!
