Disappointed
Pros:

The location and staff were friendly

Cons:

À/C’s were not working, there was an issue in almost every room. I had to move rooms, thanks to Pablo at reception who was very helpful. The A/C in the new room could not be changed, the panel on the wall was not working. The hotel needs refurbishing really badly and for almost CHF 500.- a night one would expect more.

Caro mas bom.
Pros:

Ótima localização, pudemos fazer checkin antecipado. Equipe super prestativa e agradável, nos ajudou a reservar um taxi e preparou um café da manhã take-away pois iriamos sair antes do início do café do hotel.

Cons:

Por ser bem na Royal Mile, é normal ter algum barulho até tarde, mas as janelas possuem bom isolamento acústico. O ar-condicionado fazia um leve estalo e o sabão líquido do nosso quarto havia acabado - em uma diária de mais de 430 pounds estes detalhes não devem passar desapercebidos.
