Good hotel.
Over the years I have stayed at a few hotels in Edinburgh. This hotel ticks a lot of box’s. From location, facilities and good staff. There are things that could be better for me. I think the breakfast buffet needs a bit more attention to detail. Not everyone wants a fried breakfast. It would be nice to have variations to pick maybe something else. Like eggs Benedict, fresh kippers. However that said the burning question is ‘would I return’ and the answer is ‘Yes’ of course I would.

Very friendly and helpful staff but probably the most uncomfortable bed I have ever slept in. The mattress was too soft and even when I requested the mattress to be made firmer, it was still not firm enough.
