From time of check-in to check out the staff where amazing.
Breakfast was delicious, rooms comfy & clean and hotel was ideally located to access both Old and New Town Edinburgh within a 10 minute walk.
Nice hotel we we’re able to check in early as our room was ready, staff where very friendly and helpful and the food was delicious especially the breakfast would recommend.
Staff at the front desk is very nice, Sri offered us room upgrade to king bed with Castle view after we signed up for ASR rewards. Rooms are spacious and the bathrooms are clean. Breakfast buffet is really good with a variety of options and the staff is friendly. Overall we enjoyed staying 2 nights, the area is nice, walkable to bus stops, restaurants and the old town.
Excellent location and the staff attention is top notch.

The location was excellent — tram, bus, and train access was very convenient, and the city bus tour stop was also nearby. Many key attractions, like the Castle and the old market area, were within walking distance. However, the washroom, especially the shower area, could be improved. There were exposed hot pipes, which felt unsafe. Aside from that, the staff were friendly and everything else was good.
Fantastically appointed rooms, centrally located walking distance from the Royal Mile and Calton Hill, the National Galleries, Princes St Gardens. Excellent staff.
Nice hotel close to train station and attractions. Staff were very friendly!

Post renovations, I imagine this property will be amazing, but at this time there is major construction going on, so it is LOUD from ~7 am thru late afternoon. All staff were kind, courteous and quickly responsive.
Soggy, Lewis and the team were an incredible group of dedicated and welcoming individuals. Great staff.

Room was ok, small. Beds very uncomfortable. In a busy part of town so noise from outside and floors above well into the night. Staff are friendly. Breakfast buffet is pretty good. Is close to public transport.
