“Weekend away in Edinburgh 🎄🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿”

Just come back from a weekend away in Edinburgh and stayed here for a second time. I’ve got no faults at all. Staff are lovely and friendly and very helpful. Room is a good size, we got one on the corner and it was huge. Modern bathroom as-well, Although the sheep on the wall freaked me out 😂, that’s not a complaint though 😂. It’s about a 20 minute walk to the Xmas markets and a 25 minute walk to the old town but It doesn’t feel like it at all. We’ve stayed here twice now over the past 2 years and I’ve got nothing but positive feedback. Highly recommend if in the area for the weekend or if you fancy a midweek city break 👏

“restaurant let it down”

Overall we had a good stay. Room was large and bed was very comfortable. It was also clean and warm very welcome in the current cold spell.

Overall we had a good stay. Room was large and bed was very comfortable. It was also clean and warm very welcome in the current cold spell. Bathroom had everything you would expect and reasonable quality. Ask for and got an early check in around 2pm. I had some mobility issues following a fall and we were given a room on the first floor close to the lift which showed the check in staff had taken my situation into account. The restaurant was poor food expensive and quality poor even got a simple order wrong. Two fairly basic sandwiches with crisps with tea over £40, hard to justify. Breakfast was a case of having to ask for items to be replenished and food not of a great quality and barely warm. Only fried eggs which looked like those from a kids plastic kitchen set. Even so the room side was good and slept well just a shame about the restaurant side.

“Nice hotel in a good location”

Stayed here two weeks ago on a girls weekend away. The hotels location is great, 5 minute walk to the tram but a nice easy walk into town too if you aren’t in a rush. We had snow when we were there and used an Uber which cost £8 including tip to get to the old town. The hotel is nice and the rooms… more

Stayed here two weeks ago on a girls weekend away. The hotels location is great, 5 minute walk to the tram but a nice easy walk into town too if you aren’t in a rush. We had snow when we were there and used an Uber which cost £8 including tip to get to the old town. The hotel is nice and the rooms were perfect for us, we had a triple room which was spacious, a huge bed and then a full single bed (we were expecting a fold out bed). Everywhere was lovely and clean. Small things that let it down were a window that didn’t close properly (we didn’t discover this until the 2nd day but it explained why we could hear music from the pub a little way down the street) & on our last morning as we were getting dressed a member of staff entered our room! They apologised quickly and left but there was no reason for her to have entered the room, and we still had a couple of hours before we needed to check out, this could have been an embarrassing situation! The breakfast was ok, the second morning we found ourselves having to wait around for items to be replenished. One of us requested porridge & felt like we had majorly inconvenienced them, it just wasn’t as smooth a process as the day before - and we found choices were quite limited compared to breakfasts we have had in other hotels of a similar standard. Overall the hotel is nice and the reception staff were great, very friendly and helpful.

“Decent hotel”

I stayed here 4 nights. The bed was extremely comfortable. I asked for an extra blanket and it helped with the cold room. The thermostat kept needing to be reset to maintain the temperature I wanted. The breakfast was fine but I wish they had actual coffee served in pots rather than a machine. … more

I stayed here 4 nights. The bed was extremely comfortable. I asked for an extra blanket and it helped with the cold room. The thermostat kept needing to be reset to maintain the temperature I wanted. The breakfast was fine but I wish they had actual coffee served in pots rather than a machine. I found the reception staff to be pleasant except for not giving me change for a 5 pound note. Not very customer friendly. I want to give a compliment to Shona in housekeeping who is a standout staff member who was always very helpful and smiling. She deserves a bonus and/or pay rise.
