The location of the hotel and the room were excellent. We didn't try the hotel's breakfast as we were keen to explore the city. There were so many place to eat in Edinburgh that it seemed best to try a variety of places. The hotel's Afternoon Tea was superb though!
I don't think anything could be improved upon. We found the staff friendly, helpful an attentive throughout our stay.

The room service was exceptional. There was a personalised letter on arrival wishing us a happy wedding anniversary and when we returned to the room after a night out, in edinburgh, they had spread rose perals in a heart shape on the bed.
Nothing. Very happy.

So convenient for railway station as well as the Playhouse Theatre where we saw The Lion King. It was also an ideal location for visiting shops and the cinema. The room was very comfortable and the attention to detail by the staff was exceptional.

service in the palm court afternoon tea room on Friday afternoon last was disappointingly slow. I had to order twice before my coffee came and there was an absence of staff so I had to wait several minutes at the end to pay.
