Always lovely to come back here - annual visitors, however room standards starting to show some wear & tear; shower grout needs attention, bedroom chairs fabric showing age and stains Beautiful toiletries and linens Reception welcome very basic, no explanation of services available, breakfast not offered, check out time not confirmed etc We will come back as we love the hotel, but just not the usual experience on this occasion

We had a lovely stay at the hotel. The room was spacious, well-equipped, and maintained to the highest standard of cleanliness. We experienced a minor issue during the night, but it was quickly and professionally resolved by the wonderful reception staff the following morning. Their professionalism and courteous manner was truly commendable and a real testament to the hotel.

Nice place to stay if going to Edinburgh airport early. Be sure to reserve the airport shuttle ahead of time, we didn’t and had to pay for a taxi. Wasn’t expensive but that was one of the reasons we booked this hotel, so was a bit annoying.

From the airport pickup to my departure, the staff were lovely and very helpful. The hotel is clean and had everything I needed. If you want to take the bus, the bus stop is right across the street. A grocery store is also a couple feet away. I would definitely recommend this hotel.
