The property was clean and staff was superfriendly. The staff were happy to help to make our stay a very relaxing experience. The room was new-fashioned and contemporary, included with Christmassy touches thrown in, a king size bed, as example. We had a delicious breakfast with smoked salmon, gluten free toast and an outstanding view of the Bridges included.

It's a 1st class hotel with well-trained staff and fantastic views of the landmark. The breakfast is really tasty and freshly cooked, and the location is nice close enough to Edinburgh for the Christmas market, the Highlands of Scotland, and the stunning artwork.
