Wonderfully helpful people working here, nicely appointed place. Beautifully decorated and well-kept rooms with elegant design. Bonus point for climate control, a radiator, and coffee. Perfect setting, near all attractions in the capital as well as Princes Street. Good hot breakfast, very good services. The ambience was cosy.

Lovely friendly team especially the Doorman and Porter. The hotel was set in a very central area adjacent to museums, galleries and Holyrood Park, loads of public transport and shopping street. Also, it was near a vastly entertaining and educational museum.
There was something as spa missing, we were a little disappointed.
