"staff were very nice, and the location was convenient. Everything is excellent. The only problem was that the bedroom had no window. If I had known before making a reservation, I would not make the reservation for that room. "

"Perfect location to reach all major attractions. Bring in the Grassmarket is wonderful for the castle, dining, shopping, and tours. Great staff as well who was very kind and informative. We stayed in a family suite and it was very nice. It’s is Edinburgh though, so if you plan on walking be ready for hills and stairs. Hotel was very accommodating in getting transportation for my grandmother. Looking forward to a return visit. "

"Staff was friendly and helpful. Room is comfortable, though not large. Nice bathroom with a good shower. Restaurant meals were reasonable and well prepared. Wish we could have stayed longer, but used the hotel as a base to get a flight home."

Hats off to the designer of this hotel. As someone who can be critical of hygiene, this hotel was very clean. I would stay here again."
