Pros:

We went to edinburgh for my birthday trip. Stayed in this hotel. When we reach hotel we were welcomed by lovely lady charlotte. She was so helpful and polite, making sure we had all information that we need. The place was nice and rooms were big enough. Food option for breakfast was good too. Definitely recommed this place. Not too far from city centre.

Był to tylko 3-dniowy wypad do Edynburga, którego celem było zwiedzanie miasta, więc hotel był ok
Pros:

W porządku, ale w przypadku dłuższego pobytu może okazać się monotonne - codziennie to samo

Cons:

Różnorodność śniadań

Overally my stay was good.Its a nice place for staying for a holiday
Pros:

Breakfast was quite good..quantity and quality of the food was excellent
House keeping team did a good job.They refilled bath soap, cleaned room well and replaced towels in the room.

Location is good,easily accessible by public buses to and from city centre.Very short distance from hotel to bus stop

Cons:

There was a vibrating sound that seemed to come from a huge equipment or machinery within the premises and was a bit disturbing especially night time.

Kényelmes szoba, a kilátás csodálatos, a reggeli bőséges, a személyzet nagyon kedves.
Pros:

A szállás közel volt a belvárosohoz, gyalog 30 perc alatt elérhető, de a tömegközlekedés is nagyszerű. Kényelmes szoba, a kilátás csodálatos, a reggeli bőséges, a személyzet nagyon kedves.

Cons:

Számomra kicsit kevés volt a lámpafény este, de igazából ez is elviselhető volt.
