Overall, this was a very nice hotel. Rooms are a little dated, but the main bed was very comfortable, excellent water pressure, good selection of TV channels, and convenient to a number of different areas of the city. The staff was super friendly with someone available at all times. We originally went to the wrong door when we arrived, but we were buzzed in and found the reception area quickly. We chose not to do breakfast at the hotel because we wanted to experience breakfast as some of the local cafes, but the price was comparable. If we return to Edinburg, this hotel will be top on our list.
We stayed 4 nights at this hotel, which was very conveniently close to the Old Town and attractions there. The double standard room we had was nice and large. Breakfast was amazing, especially as you could order whichever hot food you wanted. Only downside is that I wish the room…

We stayed 4 nights at this hotel, which was very conveniently close to the Old Town and attractions there. The double standard room we had was nice and large. Breakfast was amazing, especially as you could order whichever hot food you wanted. Only downside is that I wish the room-cleaning included a vacuum, as the carpet easily got dirty. But besides that, a nice stay in Edinburgh.
Staff really pleasant and helpful. The room upgrade was very welcome. The only thing is the hotel hallways could do with a refurbishment. Wallpaper would be a big improvement and a handheld shower attachment as I hate overhead showers. The fan in the room was really appreciated due to the heatwave.
