Lovely location in Leith

Great location in Leith, short walk to the tram stop. Quiet spot but with plenty of bars and restaurants nearby. Hotel bar is nice. Our room had really comfy beds, good blackout curtains. Plenty of storage and well kitted out. Towels big and pillows particularly soft and lovely. Good quality bed linen. Nice to be able to have buffet breakfast and have cooked food done to order. Staff in all areas of the hotel really pleasant and helpful. Only minor signs of age, some chipped furniture pieces in the room. Lots of USB points, but not USB C. One did not work but I only found out later in the day, so if you use the charger points, check before you leave.

This is a smaller hotel that is convenient for parking and getting to the airport. The hotel restaurant looked nice, but since they didn't take cash - and I had a pocketful on my last night in the UK - we went elsewhere to dine.

Hotel in lovely position , room spacious , bed clean and comfortable . Unfortunately we had a blocked sink and black flakes were coming from the tap and floating about . We spoke to reception prior to heading out for a meal and were told the manager would look into this . When we came back late unfortunately the problem was the same and no explanation was given . It was worse in the morning . Fully understand that problems arise but expected it to have been resolved and if unable to an apology given . In hind sight we should have asked for a swap of room but as it was late we didn’t .
