Thank you very much for letting us know that you enjoyed your stay with us. We will discuss your rating with the team later today
We arrived late and things didn't get off to a good start, we found other guests in our room! we left the reception staff to sort things out while we had a drink, we were hungry and initially told there was no food available, we managed to get a couple of rounds of sandwiches at a cost of £22!! Having been allocated another room, we found the next morning that the door didn't lock properly. We were duly moved again to an upgraded room, slightly bigger with nice view. Beds were very comfortable Things settled down and we enjoyed the remainder of our stay. Leisure facilities were very good, nice pool. Breakfast was plentiful although finished smart at 10.00 and it did get busy at times with the hot food running short. Situated at the bottom of the Royal Mile it wasn't an issue for us to walk in to the city centre.

Average hotel
Hotel overall was good. Very disappointed with restaurant, came back to hotel at 6.30 ish to nearly empty restaurant tried to get a table was nearly given one until we mentioned 2 year old son, only table available 9.30!! Came back to hotel around 7.45 to still almost empty restaurant!! Disappointing as we felt only reason we could not have a table was because we had a child. Breakfast was very disappointing also.

Nice hotel, close to all the major attractions
Pros:
close to all the major attractions, friendly staff, nice food, clean rooms.
Cons:
no
Location:
Easy walking distance to Holyrood palace and edinburgh castle, princes street, easy walking distance.
We were only there for 2 days,but got to see alot in those days. Up to Edinburgh Castle, easy enough to get in, queue moved fast, friendly staff. Great venue, lots to see.
on the following day we went to holyrood castle, also easy to get around, staff very helpful. Walked over to Princes Street, found lovely gardens to see. A very busy but enjoyable few days.
