Reviews and Ratings
The hotel's location is fantastic, close to key attractions like shopping, cocktails, and the royal mile. The rooms were on the tiny side and lacked a cooked breakfast option. The staff, especially the chambermaid, were accommodating and friendly. The dining experience offered a good mix of Scottish and European cuisine but was somewhat random. The outstanding location and friendly service compensated for the limited room size and breakfast choices.
I had a fantastic stay at this hotel with a 270-degree view of Edinburgh, including the Castle and the Firth of Forth. The room was very clean, spacious, and had an extra-large bathroom. The staff were polite and helpful, and the location was brilliant with easy access to all the sights in both New Town and Old Town.
Staying at the hotel was a delightful experience overall. The rooms were cozy and clean, offering a lovely view of the gardens, including an ice rink and carousel. Across the road, there were iconic stores like Louis Vuitton and Harvey Nichols. The only downside was the view from one side of the room into a brick wall, but overall, the rooms had a charming Scottish touch.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were small and basic but very clean, although tiny and claustrophobic. The rain hitting the metal roof outside made it hard to sleep, which was not the hotel's fault. The service was a bit inconsistent - the staff were friendly but seemed unorganized at times. The location was perfect for exploring the city with easy access to shops, restaurants, and transportation. The dining experience was decent, with a good variety of breakfast options but the breakfast room was often crowded. Overall, it was an adequate stay, albeit slightly cramped and overpriced for what it offered.
The hotel had clean and good-sized rooms, but there was a bit of noise due to the wind tunnel effect. Although the room was smaller than expected, it still provided a comfortable stay with some added bonuses.
Staying at this hotel was a delightful experience. The rooms in the cellar had all the essentials you need for a long weekend, including a separate living area, luxurious shower room with Aaran Aromatics toiletries, and a spacious bedroom with a large balcony offering breathtaking views of Edinburgh's skyline. The service was incredibly attentive and friendly, making my stay even more enjoyable. The location was ideal, close to various amenities and attractions, without any noise disturbances. The dining options were simple but tasty, providing a good variety of choices. Overall, a great value for money.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room was huge and amazing with lovely design touches, but unfortunately, it wasn't as clean as I had hoped. The service, however, was exceptional with the staff going the extra mile to ensure our comfort. The location was excellent for exploring the city, but it was a bit of a downside that the next-door room caused some disturbances.
The hotel room was spacious and had everything we needed for breakfast, though we had to request it on the second night. It was located on a corner of the ground floor with a view of the street and a pedestrian crossing. The service was exceptional, with friendly and helpful staff. The location was central, near restaurants, shops, and bars. The dining experience was average, with some minor issues after breakfast.
I stayed at the hotel and had a mix of experiences. The room, though nicely decorated with quirky touches and a very comfortable bed, was a bit noisy due to its location on the 3rd floor overlooking St Andrews Park. The layout of the old building made it a bit compact and difficult to access, plus there was no parking available next to the hotel. The service was exceptional, especially after a long drive from the Highlands, and the staff was friendly, efficient, and very helpful. The location was bustling, offering a good view of St Andrews Square but could benefit from better organization. Overall, the hotel is worth another visit despite some noise issues in the room.
My stay at the hotel was cozy and welcoming, with friendly service and a central location perfect for exploring the city. However, the room felt a bit chilly despite the heating and a bit cramped for a deluxe stay. Dining options were simple but satisfying, and the facilities were adequate for a comfortable stay.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The location was just perfect, nestled in a quiet street yet close to all the essentials in Edinburgh. The service was top-notch with friendly and helpful staff. The rooms were well-equipped but had a bit of a quirky layout in the shower area. The dining experience was good, albeit a bit disorganised at times. Overall, a great value for money stay.
I had a comfortable stay at this hotel, with very clean rooms, helpful staff, a good continental breakfast, and a great location. It was just a bit too hot in my front-facing room despite having the air conditioning on throughout the night.
The hotel's rooms were modern, clean, and had everything necessary for a short break. I was a bit surprised to find out that only continental breakfast was served, which was a letdown for me but might have been my misunderstanding. Despite this, the rooms were spacious and comfortable, ideal for a relaxing stay.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms truly capture the essence of Scotland with their unique design, although slightly on the small side, they were incredibly comfortable. The service was top-notch, from helping with any requests to going the extra mile to ensure a memorable experience. The location is a perfect balance, close to all the attractions yet tucked away on a peaceful street. Dining options were varied and delicious, catering to different preferences. Overall, a wonderful stay with great value for money.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were not as great as I expected initially, with a slight sweaty smell upon arrival, but they redeemed themselves with a very large balcony and stunning views of the firth of Forth. The service was top-notch, with a great bathroom, good breakfast, and extremely helpful staff. The location was a definite highlight, being close to all amenities and offering easy access to various attractions in Edinburgh. The dining experience, while offering a good selection and catering to special dietary needs, was slightly marred by the small reception area. Overall, a stay with mixed feelings but with many positives to remember.
