Beautiful and handy location for a quick stay in Edinburgh!
Pros:

Our room (the manor suite) was beautiful an felt very traditionally. The big window and extra space was lovely.

Cons:

Some facilities matched the age of the building, the bathroom was aged and the shower/ toilet did not work great all the time.

Had a wonderful short trip.
Pros:

The hotel was within walking distance of all the places we wanted to see but was far enough away from the main busy areas to be quiet at night. All the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

The stairs 😁

Bon hôtel pour séjourner 2-3 nuits afin de visiter facilement Edimbourg
Pros:

Hôtel situé dans une vieille maison typique des villes de la fin du 19e siècle, avec des chambres aménagées dans les sous-sols, et avec une insonorisation moyenne. Nous avons logés dans une de ces chambres, la notre était petite mais avec un lit de belle taille et confortable.
La chambre était propre, même si les joints de la douche mériteraient d’être refaits.
Le personnel est aimable.
Il est possible de déjeuner sur place mais nous n’avons pas testé, au vu des autres commentaires mitigés.
L’emplacement est assez sympa, proche des quartiers « bobo » d’Edimbourg et le centre historique est facilement accessible à pieds ou en tram.
Pour résumé, bon hôtel mais au vu du prix nous aurions attendu une chambre plus grande et d’autres équipements, mais se loger à Edimbourg est assez cher donc cela s’explique.

Cons:

La chambre, en sous-sol, est assez petite, moyennement insonorisée (mais à l’arrière du bâtiment donc bruits limités). La porte n’allant pas jusqu’au sol et le store étant trop petit et trop fin, il faisait clair très tôt.
L’eau chaude n’était pas facile à régler, et si on voulait de l’eau bien chaude, il n’y avait quasiment pas de pression. Dommage…
