The hotel had a nice room, providing a comfortable stay but lacked cleanliness and had a too-soft bed. The service was pleasant and helpful overall, with a delightful breakfast. The location was perfect for exploring Edinburgh, only a short walk from the city center. The dining experience was great, offering personally made dishes. Although the hotel had some drawbacks, it offered good value for money.

The hotel's location suited our needs perfectly, allowing us to enjoy Edinburgh and the International Festival. The rooms, although a bit tired and not soundproof as we hoped, provided comfortable beds for a good night's sleep. Service from the staff was extremely kind and responsive, with a perfect Scottish host that was friendly, helpful, and had a great sense of humor. The dining experience, especially the full Scottish breakfast, was a wonderful start to our days of exploring. The hotel's facilities were satisfactory, offering all we needed for a pleasant stay, within walking distance from the city center. The only downside was that the bathroom felt a little cooler than desired due to a radiator issue.
