Most important — The Premier Inn @ Princess Street has elevators on the GROUND floor (in Scotland the 1st floor is one flight up), the bed was a true queen size and very comfortable, room darkening shades are crucial for those early morning Scottish sunrises, and a large walk-in shower with excellent water pressure. But the true Jewel is the BAR + BLOCK STEAKHOUSE semi-attached to the hotel. The hotel receptionist sets guests up with an amazing low priced buffet style full Scottish breakfast. We also ate there for dinner! It is our favorite restaurant in Edinburgh! We can’t wait until next year when we book another stay at Premier Inn @ Princess Street!
