  Great staff and locarion

  Liked: The hotel is centrally located and our room was very quiet, even though there was a storm outside. The staff are excellent - very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was nice as well.

  Disliked: The price was quite high, especially on a Saturday night.

  A quiet spot full of character

  Liked: Great location, within walking distance to most things and close to public transport links. Quiet street in elegant part of town. The building is full of history and character. Our room was modern and very well cared for.

  Disliked: The over the bath shower in room 14 does not accommodate anyone over 5ft 8 because of the sloping roof. The room is a long way from the main parts of the hotel and the last section has steps where you have to be able to carry your luggage.

  A nice Scottish hotel with character and good location

  Liked: The hotel is located in a convenient location for walking to Edinburgh Castle, shopping, dining and other attractions. We stayed in a bottom floor room. It was comfortable, but we were curious to try the upper-level rooms. The elevator was a definite advantage with luggage. It had a cozy Scottish feel in the living room area.

  Do not recommend. Will not return. Poor value

  Liked: The bed was comfortable.

  Disliked: Majority of staff seemed indifferent, not knowledgeable and certainly did not create welcoming environments. Food was average, service staff seemed like it was their first day. We were put in 2 different rooms- both noisy much of the night. We were way over-charged and only after I continued to question our bill was I reimbursed.
