Disappointing stay, but fabulous location
The hotel is in a fabulous location and has the potential to be grand and impressive but, at the moment is a building site. Check in was disorganised and I was sent away 3 times before my room was ready nearly an hour after check in time. The room was nice, clean and spacious but the bed was not comfortable and every time next door used their bathroom it sounded like the water was flooding through our ceiling! The bar staff were lovely and very helpful but I'm not sure we'll be back.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The hotel was in a great location and it was easy to check in/out. Staff were friendly. The room was good for the price, however the floor was uneven and squeaky. The furniture was cramped in some areas. The walls are quite thin and it was easy to hear conversation of others who were in the rooms next door. There is currently a lot of renovation going on which we were unaware of so if you don’t mind gaps in ceilings and ladders you’ll be ok.

Not Christmassy
It was an over night stay visiting Edinburgh Christmas markets and castle with my sister. The foyer of the hotel was very nicely decorated and the reception staff were pleasant but the rest of the stay wasn’t. The dining room was cold and the bar staff looked liked they’d rather be elsewhere, no Christmas decorations, no Christmas music and certainly no Christmas cheer there. We didn’t eat there because of this and went across the road where the Christmas service was exceptional. Also one of the lifts didn’t have any lights in it. I know they were doing building work in the hotel, but they really could have made some Christmas effort.

Very convenient to the Edinburgh Castle and most attractions, important for those who have never been to Edinburgh, it’s very hilly with lots of steps, this place is on a route that’s very accessible and relatively flat and you won’t smoke yourself carrying luggage.
