"First let me start by the positives. It is a lovely hotel with friendly staff. The hotel room was clean with some little refreshments like tea, coffeee, biscuits and crisps. The breakfast was lovely and the lady who served us was extremely friendly and helpful. What I feel let this hotel down & why I would not return again is the excessive fee to check in early. We arrived just after 14.00pm (check in starts at 15.00pm). As soon as we got to the reception the lady although friendly said check-in...

    Vibrant family escape with free parking and easy access to Edinburgh Castle, just minutes from kids' adventures.
"The hotel is in a lovely building, but the decor in our room was odd and dated - it needed a bit of tlc and updating in our opinion. Lovely views of the city and beyond. We wish the blinds/curtains had been black out, as it got quite light in the morning. The big light in our room flickered a lot, so we couldn’t use it. Free parking was great. The room was cleaned each day and had basic amenities - kettle with tea and coffee, ironing board and a safe in the wardrobe."
