Room was okay but the breakfast was horrible. Exactly the same menu every single day. Only 2 choices of meat - extremely dry ham and greasy sausage. Tasteless bread. We skipped it on the 3rd day.

The hotel is in an outstanding location. Easy walk too many great sites, including the Royal Mile. Also conveniently located by many transportation options. Hotel staff was very friendly the restaurant has good options for dinner. The breakfast buffet is very good. Although my one criticism would be that the cost varies if you book it 24 hours in advanced it’s £17.50. If you go the day of it’s £22 I don’t get that the rooms are spacious and quite comfortable kudos to the housekeeping staff they were very much on top of everything cleaned my room every day. I requested it with the exception that they did not change the sheets other than that they were great. I would highly recommend the hotel.

This Courtyard by Marriott is located very close to the tram which runs from the airport and is very easy to get to. Rooms are clean, beds are wonderful, dinner menu options are limited, but varied. The breakfast buffet was excellent with many offerings and well-prepared food with the option to order additional items from the menu.

Our room was down two floors from the lobby. The view out of the window was a dirty alleyway. Our deadbolt on the room door didn’t work. We put out our do not disturb sign but housekeeping still came knocking at 9:00am. Then they started construction right outside of our room at 9:30am. Not a good experience while jet lagged.
