Pros:

Our TV never worked. We repeatedly asked the front desk staff and were told that maintenance would stop by. They never did. Also, we asked several times for help with the washer/dryer combo unit but inquiry was met with confusion as to the "brand" by hotel staff. Room was ok, but not worth the price.

Hotel is perfectly located in the center of the Royal Mile. Room was beautiful and nicely appointed. The best part of staying here was the caring and friendly staff - from the front desk to the restaurant and bar everyone went above and beyond to ensure our stay was enjoyable.

Pros:

Perfect place to stay right on the Royal Mile. Amazing staff, incredible rooms and great service. Rooms are clean, spacious and modern and though the layout takes just a bit to get used to - I loved the historic feel of the hotel. Absolutely would stay here again.

Pros:

The property was right in the thick of old town and it was stunning!! The staff were great and helpful. The apartment was great, clean and modern only
Complaint is the grease smell in the bathroom from the restaurant below but not sure how they could migrate that.

Looks nice, but is a struggle
Pros:

For a five star hotel, some glaring issues made it hard to enjoy our stay. Our room was located in a maze of hallways that was very hard to navigate, there isn’t a single drawer or shelf to put clothes on, the thermostat is very unintuitive and when we tried to turn the temperature down, it went further up, the bathroom door is a barn door that doesn’t seal, and some features like the towel heater weren’t working. There’s also no phone in the room to call the front desk, which is very strange. After calling through whatsapp, the staff came to help us with the thermostat, which was nice, but the inconveniences after a long day of walking the city were frustrating. On our last night, we didn't have any hot water to take showers. Not what I expected from this type of hotel.

Pros:

The rooms were large and comfortable, the outside area was relaxing and a great place to take a break from the city streets but still get to enjoy being in the city. The staff was so friendly and helpful with everything from the bags to general questions, I would recommend this stay to anyone

Pros:

Staff super kind. Great location. Room comfortable, clean and spacious. Frustrating that it was impossible, despite the kind attempts of the staff to help, to connect the Smart TV to Netflix or Prime, which is advertised as possible. Not what one expects in a hotel of this calibre.
