Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was delightful overall. The room had a nice view of the castle from the 2nd floor, which added charm to my experience, but sadly, the quality was lacking. The service was warm, very helpful, and efficient, making me feel welcomed and assisted throughout my stay. The location was fantastic, with easy access to the castle and plenty of restaurants nearby. The dining experience was enjoyable, although some items were occasionally missing. Overall, it was a pleasant stay with a couple of minor drawbacks.
For the price paid, £268 B&B for one night, the rooms were a reasonable size for the four of us, very clean, with large and very comfy beds. We slept very well as there was no noise from outside. Despite not feeling like a four-star due to a badly worn chair in the room, the stay was pleasant overall. Room service was disappointing with terrible food quality, prompting me to skip the meal. If it were for more than one night, I might have considered leaving.
The hotel was great for breakfast but had noisy, small rooms with an odd design due to the service elevator, making it smell like a garage with exhaust. The staff were fantastic and accommodating, ensuring a comfortable and safe stay. The location was perfect for sightseeing and car parking discounts, but the dining experience was disappointing with limited, not always hot meals and unenthusiastic staff.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel, with amazing service and a convenient location. The room was small and had no view, but it felt safe and cozy. The price was reasonable for my stay.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were a bit dated and noisy due to traffic, but they were in good condition and cozy. The service was exceptional with staff going above and beyond, but some were not very friendly. The location was convenient for exploring the city, but our room was above a noisy pub. The dining was hit or miss, with stylish settings but limited options. Overall, it was a stay with highs and lows.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were a bit cold, but they had everything I needed for my short stay in Edinburgh. The service was excellent overall, with a few hiccups in the bar. The location was ideal for exploring both the old and new town, despite some quirky surroundings. The dining options left something to be desired, but the homemade cakes were a highlight.
The hotel's rooms were spacious for a family of four with two double beds, but they felt a bit tired and in need of refurbishment. Despite our requests, the room wasn't cleaned on one of our days, which was disappointing. The service, on the other hand, was exceptional, with friendly staff advising us on places to visit and offering a lovely and plentiful breakfast. The location just below the castle was great, providing beautiful views, though it was a bit of a walk uphill to the city center. The dining experience was very nice, with a variety of breakfast options, and the facilities were convenient for our stay.
The hotel offers a cracking view of the Castle but the dreary musty grey rooms with 'yellow glow' lighting can feel cold and take time to warm up. Despite being mainly clean, finding an open packet of gherkins in the fridge was a bit off-putting.
The hotel has a great location with a view of the castle, really welcoming staff, and excellent service. The staff is very courteous and friendly, making the stay delightful. However, the dining options are limited, and the room service menus could offer more variety. The price is reasonable for the quality of service and facilities provided.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were too hot for the time of year, and being on the first floor right on the corner meant we had to deal with some traffic noise, making it hard to open the curtains. However, the bed was large and cozy. The room had a garage-like smell with hints of exhaust, which wasn't pleasant.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The room I stayed in was small, dark, noisy, and cold, but at least it was clean. The service provided by the staff was a mix of extremely rude and helpful, with some staff members lacking tact. The location was quite good with lovely views of the castle, although the experience fell short of my expectations. The dining experience was a nice addition with delicious homemade cakes. However, the breakfast could have been improved with hotter food. Overall, there were positives and negatives to my stay.
I loved the view from the room overlooking the castle, but the rooms weren't very soundproof and were quite small without much space to move around. The service was exceptional, especially with daily complimentary water supply and prompt towel deliveries. The location was convenient for exploring Edinburgh, although some cleanliness issues affected the experience. The dining options were good overall, despite a few hiccups, but the hotel's facilities were a bit lacking.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel with some impressive aspects, but there were a few drawbacks. However, the room looked tired and dim. The service was exceptional, especially the friendly staff like Diego in the restaurant and Andreas at Reception. The location was perfect for exploring major tourist spots by foot, and the breakfast was very good. The dining experience was satisfying, though some improvements could be made. Overall, a pleasant stay with some room for enhancement.
The hotel offers a great location with easy access to main attractions, but there were some cleanliness issues in the rooms. The service was friendly and helpful overall, although there were occasional distractions. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with a decent variety but some instances of poor execution. The facilities were adequate, providing a comfortable stay at a reasonable price.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was excellent, within walking distance of main attractions, but the room felt old and dated, especially the bathroom. The service was welcoming and helpful, but the dining experience left much to be desired.
