I had a wonderful stay here during my trip to Scotland. The hotel staff were truly amazing, and incredibly kind, welcoming, and always helpful. The rooms were spotless and very well maintained, which made the stay even more comfortable. The location was perfect and made it easy to explore everything nearby. Overall, I would absolutely stay here again without any hesitation. Highly recommend!

Very nice place to stay, safe, always had staff available for questions and help
This isn't a luxury hotel so I didn't go in with high expectations but the room was clean and great value, the amenities were terrific at that price point, and the staff were super helpful and friendly.
The rooms were lovely and staff really friendly, especially Stuart, who checked us in. The rooftop bar is gorgeous and would love to return in the summer and enjoy the view from the balcony. Also staff in the rooftop bar are very attentive, making sure your always topped up with fresh water and drinks

Room was clean and very comfortable, also quiet.
Bathroom quite small but fine
The Moxy hotels are a bit different as the lobby is the bar and is where you check in. Staff at check in (Melissa?) was friendly and helpful and the lobby offered complimentary water as well as seating areas and games.
Our room was small, but clean, but had limited storage; no dressers or closets -- just a small hanging bar. The bathroom was tiny but clean.
Breakfast was quite expensive compared to other hotels we stayed at while in Scotland, but they did offer complimentary coffee until 10am (my husband was upset since he tried to get coffee a few minutes after 10, but everything was shut down).
The biggest issue was parking and loading/unloading luggage as it's located in a very busy area with no options other than parking garages (they offered a code for a particular lot, but it didn't work).

This was our first time in Scotland. Room was clean, heat and hot water worked well in room. Breakfast was a great deal and lots of options. Staff worked hard to keep it clean and full for breakfast. We ate once do dinner in hotel bar food was good. No complaints bout our stay at all. The rooftop bar is pretty and good cocktails.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The room was okay. Breakfast was good with lots of hot and cold choice. Only thing to let it down was the toilet , once flushed, kept leaking / filling all night.
Lobby staff were very friendly and helpful. Welcome drink on arrival was a nice touch. Room was comfortable. Room service was late and didn't bring new coffee sachets. Gym room was clean if basic. Handy location, about 10 or 15 minutes' walk to the city centre. Would stay again
