    The room had comfy beds, a lounge area with armchairs, and an iron, which were appreciated, but the bed was not fully made and there were glasses left from the bar.

    The location of this hotel was fantastic, just off the Royal Mile. It was convenient for exploring the city and close to parks and outdoor areas. The room was great, with all the necessary amenities and a comfortable bed. The breakfast was excellent, with good quality ingredients and a nice touch with the birthday card and chocolates in the room.

    The restaurant had a limited dinner menu and the service was disorganized and slow. Some staff seemed careless and provided sluggish service.

    We loved the spacious room and bathroom, as well as the freshly cooked and plentiful breakfast at this hotel. The location was perfect as it was close to the city centre and historic areas in this city. Additionally, having a Tesco Extra just a five-minute walk away was a great convenience.

    Not obvious to find.

    Our room was spacious and tidy, featuring a cozy lounge area with comfortable armchairs and even an iron for our convenience. 🛋️ We also had our own private bathroom, and the staff members, especially those working in the restaurant and at the front desk, were extremely polite and knowledgeable.

    The hotel is conveniently located, allowing us to easily walk to all attractions in the city. The room was comfortable and well-equipped, with a cozy bed and a clean, spacious bathroom. The staff was friendly and helpful, always greeting us with a smile and willing to assist with any requests. The breakfast had a good selection of food, and the service was prompt and efficient. Additionally, the hotel was in a quiet part of the city, which was perfect for a peaceful stay.

    Some of the internal areas lacked windows, which made them feel a bit stuffy and confined.

    The hotel is conveniently located within walking distance of a number of main sights, including the Palace of Holyroodhouse. Guests also mentioned easy access to the massage area, and the hotel is situated at the bottom of a hill, making it convenient for taxi rides. The rooms were comfortable, with nice linens and heated towel bars. Staff were friendly and helpful, and breakfast offered a wide variety of options in a sleek dining room.

    Some guests experienced issues with cold temperatures in their rooms, which required the use of air conditioning or electric plug-in heaters.

    I recently stayed at a hotel near the parliament building and Holyrood House in Edinburgh for my birthday. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, and I was delighted to receive a handwritten card and bottle of wine as a birthday surprise. The room was spacious and comfortable, with a great view of Calton Hill. The bed was cozy and the bathroom was clean, with a good selection of toiletries. I also appreciated the peacefulness of my end of corridor room.
