Pros:

The staff were excellent they were especially caring after my wife's accident in our room. They could not be faulted, even looking after my wife while I was at reception phoning for an ambulance. While waiting for the ambulance the staff kept checking on us both visiting our room on numerous occasions.

Cons:

Nothing to fislike

Nice, clean hotel on a beautiful old building in the heart of the Mile.
Pros:

Location and staff were great, you can see there has been an effort made to provide customers with all the little extras of a boutique hotel in the refurbishment. Breakfast was lovely too.

Cons:

No elevator is a bit challenging when you on the top floor, but not enough to stop us returning. Rooms are missing some basics like shelves/hooks in bathrooms.

Best meal in Edinburgh
Pros:

OMG, if we had come here the first night we’d have come every night.
I had steak pie and he had the £20 deal of Cullen Skunk and pan seared salmon.
The pub has music and ginormous tvs both of which I dislike in pubs, however, the food was outstanding, the ladies serving so nice and kind and value for money when on the royal mile? Stunning .
10/10!
