An attractive hotel, with friendly, helpful staff. The quality of the food is disappointing.
Pros:

Attractive design. Lots of art, and creative use of it.

Cons:

The food is below standard for what is a very attractive hotel.

Great location, great staff, would definitely stay here again
Pros:

Location, location, location!! we found it much better to stay here and go into old town. The restaurants were excellent and it was very easy to get around. Good air conditioning and the staff were all super friendly and helpful.

Cons:

Can’t think of a thing we didn’t like. Would have been nice to have some irregular fried eggs for breakfast. Breakfast options were fairly decent each morning though.

Pros:

Öncelikle otelin konumu mükemmeldi. Oldukça merkezi bir yerde. Old town'a 5-10 dakika yürüyüş mesafesinde. Otelden çıktıktan sonra yeme içme ve alışveriş için çok fazla seçenek var. Otel ve odalar çok temiz, personel çok yardımcıydı. Akşam sadece otel misafirlerine kapalı şekilde canlı müzik var, oldukça keyifli. Kahvaltı tatmin ediciydi. Çok özenli hazırlanmıştı. Çeşitlilik ve lezzet açısından oldukça tatmin ediciydi. Genel olarak otel beklentimin üzerindeydi. Bir daha Edinburgh'a gidersem kesinlikle tekrar bu tesisi tercih ederim.

Great location but too expensive for the size of room.
Pros:

Great location, friendly staff and clean.

Cons:

The size of the room was very small for £350 per night. Other hotels in the vicinity of equal or more luxurious were less money. If I had with me a regular suitcase I have no idea where it would go. Also lighting in the bathroom was poor, need better lighting above the mirror or a magnifying mirror.

A great stat
Pros:

Great location , lovely breakfast

Cons:

On 2 or 3 occasions staff didn’t acknowledge us as we passed reception to get to the lifts, this is not a major thing but having stayed in 4 and 5 star Irish hotels it’s not as welcoming as it could be.

Pros:

Lovely room, gorgeous bathroom, very clean, staff always friendly and helpful, so much choice for breakfast, had two evening meals there - both good, perfect location to get to sites, shops and eateries but just away enough from busyness. A nice park directly opposite. Loved it !!

Cons:

Can't think of one thing.

Great for a one night stay.
Pros:

All the staff I had dealings with were exceptional. The location is excellent. Very handy if traveling via Waverley Station.

Cons:

The room was small but I knew this when I booked. Without a major, and hugely expensive, redesign of the interior of the building, I don't think the company can do anything about it.
