Pros:

The location of the hotel is excellent. The room was comfortable and had been partly refurbished. The bathroom was modern and the room was cleaned well

Cons:

I think for the price, breakfast should be included in the cost of a room.
My only criticism of the bedroom was that there was no light fitting on the ceiling so it wasn't well lit

Pros:

L'insonorizzazione della stanza. Il sorriso di una delle persone alla reception.
La posizione è giusto al confine tra New Town e Old Town, 5 minuti a piedi da dove arriva il bus 100 dall'aeroporto

Cons:

La mancanza (incredibile) dello scovolino nel bagno (sulla mancanza del bidet ero ovviamente preparato).
Aggiungiamoci il costo della colazione nel bistrot annesso (15,50 £ cad ma con poca gentilezza del personale).
Ah, il prezzo dell'hotel è secondo me elevato per ciò che viene offerto, ma è un mix tra il costo della vita in Scozia ed il periodo di soggiorno, concomitante con la Maratona di Edimburgo

Coinvolgente
Pros:

Hotel in zona tranquillissima, a due passi dal centro: ideale atmosfera old-style, con camere molto pulite e personale cortese.

Cons:

La colazione non compresa nel prezzo: possibilità di utilizzare il servizio extra (sconsigliato) oppure uno dei numerosi bar nei paraggi (Platform 41 consigliatissimo)

Pros:

Un hôtel très bien situé (arrivée en bus de l'aéroport ou en train)... il est au calme dans une petite rue au pied de Carlton Hill. La chambre est décorée avec goût dans le style écossais, la literie est très bonne !

Cons:

Dommage que l'accueil soit un peu froid ! Il faut questionner pour avoir quelques informations !
