Excellent, quiet location close to bus stops
Pros:

This hotel is in a perfect location, appropriately 10-15 min outside of downtown, with 2 bus stops very close by. The view overlooking the city from each room is spectacular!

Pros:

Ultima tappa del nostro tour in Scozia, quindi posizione comoda per chi arriva da Inverness. Ci siamo fermati due notti per dedicare almeno una giornata alla visita della città, la posizione delle fermate degli autobus adiacenti alla struttura alberghiera hanno non di poco facilitato gli spostamenti per il centro città. Ottima la colazione e la possibilità di cenare.

Cons:

Ho soggiornato presso l'Holiday Inn di Edimburgo durante un viaggio in moto in Scozia.
La struttura è stata complessivamente soddisfacente, ma desidero segnalare un aspetto molto importante per chi viaggia su due ruote.
Al nostro arrivo il personale ci ha mostrato un avviso della Polizia che sconsigliava di lasciare le motociclette nel parcheggio dell'hotel a causa del rischio di furti, indicando invece alcuni parcheggi videosorvegliati presenti in città.
Per tutelare le nostre moto siamo stati quindi costretti a utilizzare uno di questi parcheggi, situato a notevole distanza dall'hotel, con ulteriori costi di taxi e circa 60 sterline di parcheggio.
Ciò che ci ha lasciati perplessi è che l'hotel è perfettamente consapevole del problema, tanto da informare gli ospiti all'arrivo, ma il parcheggio della struttura continua a non offrire adeguate misure di sicurezza dedicate ai motociclisti, come videosorveglianza, accessi controllati o aree protette.
Inoltre, se avessimo deciso di lasciare le moto nel parcheggio dell'hotel, avremmo comunque dovuto pagare il parcheggio, pur in presenza di un rischio di furto esplicitamente segnalato.
Consiglio quindi ai motociclisti di informarsi preventivamente sulle opzioni di parcheggio sicuro prima della prenotazione. Mi auguro che la struttura investa in soluzioni adeguate, perché questo aspetto può incidere significativamente sull'esperienza di chi viaggia in moto.

Cons:

Booking.com showing in pictures that in washrooms there is shower area but in actual the hotel has bathtub only.

For senior citizens its very difficult to be in and out if they are not used to bathtubes.
