Pros:

The staff were super helpful and friendly, and the room was lovely. They came with pretty much everything you may need like coffee and tea, a little scrubber, and other things you may have forgotten.
Everything ran really well, and came with clear instructions in case it didn't. And there was always a member of staff around if you need assistance.

Lovely stay.
Pros:

Lovely welcome and shown to the room, staff were very knowledgeable and friendly. Great quiet location away from any main roads. Hotel is also an art gallery so lots of lovely art work to look at. The bed was comfortable and the room was reasonably sized.

Cons:

No lift/elevator so if you were in a wheelchair it wouldn’t be accessible. Lots of stairs especially to the top floor. Not the hotels fault but the room next to us were quite loud - loud snoring all night -

Artistic and comfortable
Pros:

This hotel is situated in a quiet and lovely part of Edinburgh, facing a park, and just a 15 minute walk to Holyrood Castle and the Parliament. Staying here was an aesthetic pleasure. The entire hotel, including all the rooms are decorated with unique pieces of art. The walls are covered in murals and one of a kind wall paper. The ceilings are incredibly high and the chandeliers are from Murano, Italy. The facilities are modern, the bathrooms are updated and clean. The staff are friendly and helpful. We had a super spacious and beautiful room that looked out on the back garden. The breakfast was delicious and plentiful. The bar had an exceptional collection of scotch. I would definitely stay again.
