Lovely comfortable rooms.
Lovely stay, really comfortable bed. Lovely room and facilities. We went the the W lounge twice in the afternoon it was excellent, however at night the service was very slow. The man serving us was lovely, there just didn’t seem to be enough staff. Took over 20 mins from ordering a drink to being served it and we had to chase it.

Fantastic centrally located hotel in Edinburgh.
All round excellent hotel. Clean, comfortable room.
We didn’t use the restaurant for our evening meal as the menu online wasn’t that helpful. One restaurant being Japanese and another Brazilian we were left wandering what the menu would be like, so opted to eat away from the hotel.
Breakfast was excellent, and the options were quite abundant.
Views were fantastic even on a very cold snowy day.

Good value
Lovely hotel, great service. Loved the room for me on my own but personally wouldn’t want to be sharing with someone else as the toilet and shower are in the room behind frosted glass. If you go to the toilet in the night a very bright night light comes on and takes a long time to go off lighting up the room.
