We booked for a short 5 day stay and were glad to realise it was such a close proximity to restaurants, souvenir stores, Victoria Street and the famous Edinburgh castle! The staff were friendly upon arrival HOWEVER we were told by one gentlemen that our room was not ready but to rest assure when it would be, we would have a wonderful view of the castle during our stay. When our time came to check in a women gave us our room but it was on the opposite end of the hotel so we did not get the view we were told. Still, a very clean, comfortable stay. There were some loud noises at night, assuming from other guests and some noise during the morning from tradesmen but overall the sister hotel/restaurant a minute walk down the road was pleasant.

Ideal location for exploring Edinburgh. The bar and restaurant were both closed. Staff didnt know when/if it would open? We were advised we could use the sister hotel 100 yards down the road but it was pouring with rain.

Love everything about this hotel, from their friendly staffs, the amazing spacious room we got, to the breakfast bar we had. The only issue I could think of was the construction early in the morning on the floor above our room. Other than that, our stay was pleasant and I wouldn’t change a thing about it. Robert was incredible, he was informative and professional servicing us. Will definitely stay here again in the future.
