"Excellent location for access to all Edinburgh has to offer. The hotel was exceptionally clean and comfortable. The bar staff were very amenable to our requests. I was a bit bemused by the check in and check out do it yourself terminals! However staff were available if required. We didn't have the hotel breakfast, however the dining room was busy. We turned left on exiting the hotel and went to a lovely little cafe instead. I'd recommend a stay here and would love to go back"
