Small but nice
Small room and a bit cramped but that was fine for me for a work visit, including some work at the desk, tho ironing needed some moving of chairs etc. Hotel nice and with good location and nice breakfast. Window on to street wasn’t a great sound barrier to Christmas party goers but again fine.

Kathryn, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

It's ok I guess better than holiday inn.
Had the large exec room, the room itself was good very big nice bathroom etc but whilst the bed was big it was to large singles pushed together with one slightly higher than the other so may as well had a single bed which is disappointing. Bar shut early on Tuesday got back at 10:30 was already closed and no in room drinks available so again not good.
Luke, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The staff were amazing and so kind and helpful! They gave us great suggestions on where to eat and what to do. We tried a few of the restaurants they suggested and they were fantastic. We added on breakfast each morning at the hotel - and it was just as equally delicious and a great start to our morning each day. Plus they make great drinks at their bar if you want a nightcap before retiring for the night! We can’t say enough good things - we had an amazing stay :)

Mages your expectations. The place is not the hotel you would like if you have mobility and space issues. The room and closets are small.

Nice place in central Edinburgh
Very nice, friendly staff. No lift, but knew that when booking. Communication with the property was good, let them know that I had mobility issues, they assured us a room with minimal stairs. Very close to trams/transit. Food was good.

Good experience lovely hotel friendly staff good breakfast. I did find the single bed a little uncomfortable. The hotel is very close to John Lewes and 8 mins from Waverley station
