I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The location was perfect, right in the center of town and very near to the Castle. The room I stayed in was huge and tastefully decorated, and the bed was extremely comfy - I had the best night's sleep in ages! The hotel facilities were excellent, and the cleanliness was top-notch. The staff were friendly and efficient, allowing me to check in super early and providing quick service during breakfast. Speaking of breakfast, it was absolutely gorgeous, with a wide variety of delicious options to choose from. I had a wonderful experience at this hotel.

Hard to think of anything negative.

We had a fantastic stay at the hotel. The location was perfect, close to everything we wanted to see over the weekend, including the Festival Theatre for a show we attended. The hotel was also in the center of The Fringe Festival, making it a convenient choice for exploring all the Edinburgh attractions. The cleanliness of the hotel was impeccable, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfasts were great, and we enjoyed the variety of options available. The hotel facilities were excellent, including a swimming pool that had a relaxed family atmosphere. The parking provided by the hotel was a plus, saving us the hassle of finding transportation.

Couldn't find any faults at all.

Nothings.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The staff were excellent - welcoming, helpful, and friendly throughout my entire stay. The hotel facilities were top-notch, and I particularly loved the cleanliness of the rooms. The location in the grassmarket was perfect, with all the main attractions within walking distance. It was also convenient to have both train stations easily accessible. I even attended a show at the Festival Theatre, which was just a short walk away. The breakfast provided each morning was lovely, and the staff really made the dining experience enjoyable.

Nothing for me.

I had the most amazing stay at this hotel. The location was absolutely perfect, with a stunning view of the castle right outside my window. It was so convenient to be able to walk to all the interesting sites in the old part of town. The staff were friendly and helpful, making me feel welcomed throughout my stay.

Nothing not to love.
