Lush comfort and lovely staff.
A lift was out of action, which made it difficult for a disabled person.

Great hotel. Very comfy and clean. Great location to Eburgh spots. Great staff - David, Davy, and Rob (family member concierges) were fun, informative, helpful in every way and made the stay special!

Characterful building, much bigger than it appears from the outside. Room was spacious, modern and very clean. Likewise the bathroom with quality toiletries, robes and slippers, underfloor heating, quiet extraction system. There’s a large garden area above the neighbouring cinema. The bar area is cozy and was staffed by two lovely individuals. ALL of the staff seemed genuinely pleasant, friendly and helpful. Just a few minutes’ walk to the railway station and walking distance to the central sights and cultural attractions.
Constant, loud snoring could be heard all night coming from a neighbouring room! This can’t be controlled by the hotel, of course. But the insufficient soundproofing just took the shine off a perfection rating for me. I left the radio on all night to distract me and allow me to sleep.

From the moment we stepped into the hotel and were greeted by the front desk staff with a glass of Prosecco and shown to our rooms to the moment we checked out, this was an amazing experience. The rooms were incredibly comfortable, the location was exceptional for exploring Edinburgh, and the staff were absolutely wonderful.
Nothing at all. This hotel is a 5-star hotel in every sense. That does mean it's a little more expensive than others you might find, but it's entirely worth the value. Highly recommend splurging a bit; it's totally worth it.

The rooms are beautiful and comfortable, we stayed with some friends and they also enjoyed their room, which was equally nice. I think five days is the test of a room and this one absolutely passed, the turndowns were morning and night and the cleanliness was excellent, the attention to detail was superb. There's an atmosphere of serenity and hospitality that is perfect for a prolonged hotel stay. Definitely would stay here again.
It didn't affect us, in no hurry, but be aware that the cooked breakfast is slow. The continental is very good though and available just to pick up plus, we went to Taste of Italy which is right next door for breakfast, and I Recommend this place. Just go there for breakfast, don't pay for the hotel one. I'm also reliably informed that there was a tiny bit of mould in the shower cubicle for 106 but I have to say for my own self, I did not notice it.

Location central, 5mins from the train station and trams outside. Room was fabulous, huge and well equipped Breakfast excellent with likeable staff, very attentive. Evening service closing curtains and pillow mist, 1st night
Room wasn't cleaned on Saturday (Friday to Sunday stay) Drinks were not replenished in the fridge. Very limited room service menu. Poor bar service, we were offered 1 zero alcohol beer which was an ipa, coffee machine wasn't on, so would take a while for drinks (3.30pm) Balcony had weeds growing on it.
