Great welcome and superb location
Fantastic stay with a very warm welcome by both front desk staff followed by a tour from Harry the concierge around this lovely hotel and then shown to our room. He was also extremely helpful throughout our stay with recommendations etc It’s unusual meeting such an enthusiastic young person about their Jo and heart-warming, a lovely reflection of Scottish hospitality, thank you. Perfectly placed for the Playhouse Theatre and shopping. Would definitely recommend

A Wonderful Weekend
A wonderful weekend and all staff were so welcoming, professional and friendly. A special mention to Jonathan who makes your stay so memorable. An excellent location for the Edinburgh Playhouse and the St James Quarter. We loved the roof terrace with amazing views and the Snug with the open fire pit. Beautiful rooms and decor throughout. Looking forward to starting with you again.

Nice break
We had a lovely stay, However, I would say the fact they must check the rooms before putting people into them, our shower flooded the bathroom and leaked into the room a bit. Give them they're due they moved us to a different room which was nice however the heating was broke in that room and they had a really noisy heater in its place. £540 was a lot of money to have these snags i feel, one thing i feel that they could update is they are cashless and that they take £100 deposit for the room incase anything happens to it, this i feel you should be made aware of, all in all was a nice break
