Fantastisk, hyggeligt og positivt anderledes
Pros:

Fantastisk hyggeligt og lidt anderledes. Men en super god oplevelse og rigtig hyggeligt beliggenhed men restauranter rundt om.
Et lille stykke vej ind til centrum men nemt at tage sporvognen og den var 300 meter fra båden.

Cons:

Man sad ikke så godt når man skulle spise morgenmad.

Very nice stay we loved it !!
Pros:

Was spotlessly clean all through !
Staff were very friendly right from checking in to checking out
Was my friends birthday and the room was decorated with balloons and towels made into a cake with a complimentary voucher for 2 drinks ! Such a nice touch x

Cons:

Like a cooked breakfast but the continental was sufficient on this occasion !
Parking wasn’t a problem on this occasion as we phoned ahead and booked but if really busy might have been different !

A former WW II minesweeper converted into an upscale hotel offers a unique stay in Edinburgh.
Pros:

What an amazing find. This was our first hotel to stay in with our group when we arrived in Scotland and it set a high bar for the rest of the trip. Great staff who welcomed our group of 13 travelers, the rooms were comfortable and the service was impeccable. Breakfast buffet offered great options and attentive staff to get our mornings started.

Cons:

Nothing. It was just a great spot to explore Edinburgh from. Lots of great restaurants in the area too.

Great location, friendly staff and a unique venue.
Pros:

All of the staff were so friendly and amazingly helpful. The boat and our rooms were immaculate. There was parking available immediately outside the boat and a tram stop 5 minutes walk away.

Cons:

The organisation at breakfast was a little haphazard. We had to wait a long time to get a table.
