The feel of a Scottish country home in the city
The four-star Channings Hotel prides itself on an atmosphere that is more country-house than city accommodation. Channings enjoys a quiet location overlooking private gardens. Princes Street and all of Edinburgh's amenities are within easy reach. The hotel combines five Edwardian townhouses, one of them the former home of Antarctic explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton. Channings offers guests a warm welcome, great food and wine, and free Internet access.

Excellent breakfast, comfortable
Excellent breakfast, comfortable room except it was very hot and airless in the room and the windows did not open wide. Could have done with a fan or air conditioning on such a day. Was happy to get the room for the price (about £67) but in our opinion it would not have been worth the going rate of over £150 a night. Location quiet - about 10 mins walk into the centre.
