If you dont book their premier room you are going to get most likely a room in which you cannot walk around and a window where you can peek outside via a peep hole of a window over looking a parking lot. the bathrooms do not have independent heating. I moved by paying more ... however they were doing heaving hammering right over my head during nap time. I had ot move again. Packed and unpacked 3 times in one day. Great location and great ambience of the hotel iteself.

I like the bar/courtyard area and the serice. I didn't like the coldness of the room but it did heat up after maintenance intervened. The bathroom was 'baltic' caused by old ill fitting window. The room was unsitable for a booking and should not be given to any guest. Very, very disappointed.

Amazing Wedding stay
We stayed in Edinburgh for 2 nights to get married. When the hotel found out they were so amazing! They upgraded our room and made such a fuss at every opportunity! It made our wedding so much more of an incredible experience than it already was! We can’t speak highly or thank them enough!

This historic hotel was perfect for our visit. The property was clean and comfortable, and the staff were friendly. The onsite restaurant and bar were nice for a relaxing evening or nightcap. The location is convenient as it makes walking to nearby sites like local shops, restaurants, and the Edinburgh Castle very easy. Highly recommended and would stay there again.
