The rooms were very dated and it looked like the hotel was in the process of renovating. The location is good for getting into central Edinburgh as there bus stops right outside the hotel. We were snowed in during our stay but we were able to occupy ourselves at the bar and games area. The games area include pool table, foosball table as well as few board games although a lot pieces were missing. Overall a good stay.

Overnight stay

Stayed for one night at busy Xmas period. Had a twin room and it was really spacious and comfy. Went to the pool and spa area but it was far too busy( don’t know if that was the time we went 5pm or time of year) Breakfast in the morning was more than excellent with a wide variety on offer and they even had Haggis. Overall it was a pleasant stay and so handy for the Zoo and buses into Edinburgh
