Damian, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We had a great stay at this hotel. The design is really unique and stylish, a mix of different building types set in a beautiful garden. It’s also conveniently close to the airport, which made our travel much easier. The breakfast was excellent with a great variety of options, and the service overall was very pleasant. But what truly was amazing was the kindness of the staff. My daughter accidentally left behind her small plush puppy dog, which is very special to her and to us. The hotel not only found it, but mailed it back to us. A huge thank you to Chloe, who went out of her way to help, we’re so grateful! Highly recommend this place!
Adam, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Booked during the marathon weekend and the price was relatively cheap compared to others in the area - breakfast was also included so that makes it even better. Good place to stay to get into Edinburgh as the bus stop was right outside so overall a very nice place to stay.

Absolutely beautiful hotel and grounds. Staff was amazing. Loved pre stay very much.
Trina, 2-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Not suitable for families. On both nights of our stay, close to our room they had wedding parties. Very loud music with DJs shouting until almost midnight. Defeated the whole point of the hotel as a place to rest after a day in Edinburgh. Room was dated with small sofa bed. Swimming pool was nice and staff there were pleasant. Management were not interested in our complaint about loud music.

Had a really nice experience. Friendly welcome at check in, lovely cooked and continental breakfast and a nice time in the pool/sauna and steam room. Would say the hotel needs a little TLC in places, but had a really nice experience overall.

This was an amazing hotel to stay at. First time in Edinburgh, this hotel had great history and beautiful grounds. The staff on reception were very helpful especially Chloe who went out of her way to upgrade our rooms & chat to us too! Also really enjoyed the leisure facilities. Didn’t want to leave! Our beds were very comfy- I will be back!
Martin, 1-night trip

Comfortable rooms and lovely staff. Nice to have an informal bar with dining options.
Rosetta, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We were just here for one night before flying out of Edinburgh. It was a great alternative to higher priced hotels near the airport. There is a bus stop right outside this quaint spa-resort. It was clean, cozy, and well-maintained. I would recommend.
