I loved everything. The location was perfectly in the centered to easily go to the old town, and the new town. Closeby to waverly station. The personnel was very friendly, the room was spacious and clean and the bathroom had an amazing shower. Breakfast was well balanced and there was much choice. We will be coming back if we come to edinburgh.

The room size was "very" generous. The room was tired looking, chairs sunk down, etc. It did have nice bathroom, but the door stuck as you opened/closed it. Minor problem to resolve we thought. I was very surprised to get an email from the hotel prior to arriving asking me to cancel my Booking reservation and book directly with the hotel. That does not at all seem right.
Restraint had pleasant food.

Room and location were superb! Staff were excellent , especially the Reception Team. Having the lemon water dispenser , and also hot chocolate in the afternoon at Reception was great. Nice touch to have the miniature whiskies as complimentary in the room! Would definitely recommend the hotel and would return there, next time I go to Edinburgh.
There was nothing that we didnt like!
