Very enjoyable.very happy with our choice, both in terms of the comfort of the hotel and it's locati
Pros:

Lovely quiet location yet just a stones throw from all the sights of Edinburgh. The hotel is also within very easy reach of a wide variety of options for eating & drinking. The thoughtful welcome drinks and cheeky mince pies in the lobby were much appreciated.

Cons:

Everything was lovely. I understand the owners are planning to make a guest sitting room & honesty bar. Can imagine this being a further welcome addition

A beautifully designed, comfortable stay in central Edinburgh with thoughtful touches throughout.
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at this beautifully designed accommodation right in the heart of Edinburgh. The room was very comfortable, spacious enough for two people, and furnished with great attention to detail. Check-in and check-out were completely hassle-free, and communication with the hosts was smooth and friendly throughout. A lovely extra touch was the small complimentary bar at the entrance. Highly recommended!

Great experience.
Pros:

The place is in a great location, around 15 minute walk from the city center. The host was friendly and there is lots of free stuff such as chocolate bars, coffee pots and teas in room, available at all time.

Pros:

Very cute townhouse, felt like being in a home away from home! Karyn was lovely and welcoming, contributed to the homely feel. Very thick walls so we weren't disturbed by other guests. Slept incredibly well and room was very cosy and clean.

Lovely period townhouse in quiet street with easy access to centre.
Pros:

Everything about my stay was brilliant. The room was clean, comfortable, and quiet. The welcome tray was lovely - an excellent range of drink sachet options, and a nice touch with a tunnocks tea cake and wafer biscuit, as well as a packet of additional biscuits. It was nice to have a bathrobe as well as towels, and the Townhouse website was extremely useful with places to go and things to see. The location was grand - very easy to walk to attractions and the station, and the nearby roads had plenty of cafes and restaurants and little shops, and for larger shops, the St James Shopping Centre is very close by. I would definitely stay here again.

Cons:

There wasn't anything I didn't like.

Pros:

Cosy room, comfy bed (on the firm side, which I prefer), lovely en suite. Provided plenty of tea and biscuits, and you could help yourself to more. Ideal place to use as a springboard to explore the city, and located near a lot of excellent eating options on Broughton Street.

Good stay
Pros:

Excellent staff, very welcoming and helpful. Great location, comfy bed. Complimentary drinks and mince pies were also a very nice touch (we stayed just before christmas).

Cons:

Small, low-tapered ceiling (as I am 6'5 this was a slight inconvenience), relatively small room and bathroom, but was nice regardless and enough room for a couple.

Pros:

This is a really stylish little hotel. I enjoyed the decor and being in my room.

Cons:

The room was a little small. Better for one person than two I'd say.

In short, I paid for a decent room with a view, and got the room of a19th century serving maid.
Pros:

It was fairly close to centre.

Cons:

All staff had left for the day(I arrived at 4pm
Was given an Attic room, (Not the room i booked) with a view of the rooftops.
Stairs looked derelict.
No lift.
I booked a room with parking, but had to pay £30 extra for a tiny parking place in the rear.
Sloping roof
Shower was barely working.

Pros:

- situation géographique;
- hôtel est décoré avec beaucoup de charme, tout est fait avec beaucoup de goût;

Cons:

- les chambres ne sont pas prêtes avant 15h, nous sommes arrivés fatigués vers 14h30, il fallait revenir à 15h, ce qui était très surprenant vu le prix que ça coûtait;
- après la nuit les serviettes n'ont pas été changé, juste pliées et déplacées, par conséquent, on ne savait plus à qui elles appartenaient;
- la douche est placée très haut, en sortant, on a failli tomber plusieurs fois;
- la baignoire a un coffre très large et carré, de la même couleur que le carrelage, je me suis fait un énorme bleu car le passage entre la douche et la baignoire est très serré;
- la lumière de l'escalier reste toujours allumée;
- le congélateur du réfrigérateur était scotché, nous n'avons pas pu l'utiliser;
- les portes à l’intérieur sont trop lourdes et impossibles de fermer
