My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The location was a highlight, being quite central to the Edinburgh tourist hotspots. The rooms were clean and spacious, offering a lovely view of the garden, though the separate bathrooms were a bit quirky. The service was friendly and welcoming, which added to the positive experience. On the downside, the breakfast was not quite what I expected, leaning a bit towards fancy rather than classic. Still, for the price, I found it to be a good value.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which is conveniently located just a short walk from the Royal Mile. The rooms were nice and impeccably clean, and the beds were among the most comfortable I've ever experienced. On the downside, the bathroom is shared down the hallway, which was a bit inconvenient. The service was outstanding; the staff was friendly and provided valuable local insights, making my visit memorable. While the breakfast was fantastic and fresh, the overall value for money was decent but not perfect.

I recently stayed at this hotel and loved the newly decorated rooms, which were cozy and had a comfortable bed and sparkling shower. The location was fantastic, just a short walk through the park to the Royal Mile. However, the room was smaller than I expected, and the service was a bit too cheeky for my taste, which got irritating quickly. Overall, it was a good value for money considering the great location and nice amenities.
