Very friendly staff and room immaculate and clean. Pool a bonus too! But go at quiet times because it's very small. Only gripe is that windows don't open and hard to control temperature in room - we were boiling at night 😔

Typical City Centre hotel. No view from window, may as well not have had one. Sauna and Pool were good. Didn’t do breakfast as it was too expensive. Found local cafes for that 👍🙂

First two nights we stayed in an executive suite wonderful, good location, beautiful views of the castle. We moved as part of a tour to a much smaller room with a leaky overhead shower head Biggest drawback was the lack of air-conditioning hotel was stifiling hot every night.

Great hotel, right in the Center, many dining options and walking distance to places. The hotel restaurant and bar were both great. We had dinner there twice. The only detail is that the hotel does not accept cash, only card (something to keep in mind) I highly recommend it if you are staying in Edinburgh with kids.
