Friendly staff and good breakfast. Rooms are clean and house keeping is prompt. Only recommendation I would suggest is putting in a mini fridge in the room and changing the tv to a smart tv.

Disappointing Accommodations

The hotel location was great, within walking distance to many of the sights of Edinburgh. The rooms were sparse, cheap particle board furniture, poor lighting, no basics like tissues and water glasses, and stained upholstered furniture. Service was inconsistent, poor the first two days of my stay and much improved the last two days. Certainly not a four star hotel at a cost of $300+ per night.

The hotel is beautiful inside with carved woodwork throughout, spiral staircase, cozy library, and fireplaces. The location is in a lovely part of town. The staff was top-notch -- very professional and accommodating. Our only complaint was that our room lacked some basic amenities, such as water glasses and tissues, and it had only one accessible charging outlet.

Overall, a fine hotel with friendly, attentive staff. Great location; beautiful building. I rated it down a bit because of minor annoyances: no Kleenex in the room, had to ask for additional toilet paper because room was not restocked, few and inconveniently located electrical outlets. Minor problems that could be easily fixed.

We were there for a 7 night stay , placed in a “basement room” until we spoke up and got moved to a room on the 4th floor, which was better! Tried to have a cocktail in the bar, they were out of most liqueurs! Definitely NOT worth the $2700 dollars we spent in American dollars! We could have stayed in a much nicer hotel for the same price! Lesson learned!

It's located at a beautiful & quiet location (close to Dean's Village) in a beautiful and well maintained house. Rooms are bid, comfort & very clean just as all the interior spaces are very clean and cozy. Breakfast is delicious, with a variety of options to savour.
