Guest Score 7 out of 10
Good
Great location, some of the staff were super helpful and friendly, comfy beds, good gym and pool. On site carpark very handy but limited spaces - we were lucky.
Housekeeping weren’t great. Did not fill up our empty shower wash or conditioner for the length of our stay. Has to ask a few times for sofa bed to be made up. One room was without robes or slippers. Very expensive. Breakfast was okay. Expected much more from a 4 star hotel. It felt a bit tired.

Wonderful
The staff were very friendly and always eager to help with any issue. The location of the hotel was excellent — right next to Holyrood Palace and within walking distance to all major tourist attractions in Edinburgh. I was very satisfied with my stay and would choose this hotel again in the future.
Cleanliness could be improved; the toilet and room were not as clean as expected.
