Great hotel in a great location. Lovely large apartment looking onto square. Particularly friendly and helpful reception staff at check in and all interactions witnessed with other customers very positive and chirpy. This really sets the tone for a place - well done

Outstanding Hotel

Amazing place. Really appreciated the birthday wishes. Staff were great. Brilliant hotel in an ideal location. The only thing that let it down was the distinct lack of breakfast seating. I feel you should really provide proper tables for eating. Sitting on a settee is not comfortable for breakfast consumption.

Very clean, nice sheets. Fairly hard bed, heated by radiator and you are at the mercy of the building for when they come on. I was cold much of the night. A man entered my room in the morning while I was bathing. He left immediately and I didn’t see him. I don’t know how he got access.

Great central location

Great location just 5 minute walk from station. Lovely breakfast. On checkout found out we were upgraded but not told this on arrival. Nice duplex style room with great facilities. Bedroom a little small and nowhere to hang coats or shelves to put things on. Over all good stay and would recommend.

Whilst this place is a lovely place to stay and great location, and staff are very friendly. Unfortunately on this occasion, it didnt live up to the stay we had in the past at one of the London properties. The price that we had to pay, didnt meet our expectations. Very noisy room (1st floor) - the rooms open up onto an open hallway, so all noise from the entrance hall can be heard in the room. Plus the windows arent double glazed so you can hear the trams every 7 minutes plus the bottle collection early Saturday morning from the restaurants on the ground floor. Resturant staff I didn’t really appreciate when they questioned and lectured me on my parenting when my child was near the hallway handrails despite me being right beside her. As for the room - little disappointed that whilst I accept it is a self catering apartment, small basics would have been appreciated considering the price that I had paid. Examples being only a couple of tea bags for our 2 night stay, towels didnt get replaced, no tea towels, no chopping board, no washing up liquid, no salt & pepper, oil etc. Just little basics that could be provided, at little cost to the establishment rather than residents having to spend and then end up leaving everything behind. Finally, decor in the room - curtain didnt close properly which meant rooms were bright at night. Lots of marks on the room walls. A little dired looking.

Super hotel - right in the heart of Edinburgh. Excellent value for price paid. No help with luggage at door and not easy to stop near hotel. Aside from that - really great.

Went downhill, other cleaner more comfortable plac

Have stayed here before and loved it. Was extremely disappointed this time. Had to squeeze up either side of the bed to get into it. The springs were gone on one side of the bed meaning it was hard not to roll out. There was mould in the bottom of the shower. The windows rattled in the wind in their frames. We tried to attend the Register bar at about 9.45pm to be told it was closed. When we pointed out the website said 11pm, the bar manager (Italian Manager) said he didn’t care, he finished at 10.30 and was told to be closed by then. We asked to speak to a manager, who was supposed to call us about the stay but that hasn’t happened.

From the moment you walk in you are amazed by how beautiful the property is. The staff is exceptional, so friendly and helpful. They left a birthday card and bottle of Prosecco in my room for my milestone birthday. The location is one of the best places to be in Edinburgh. Close to many restaurants, shopping and the old town. Would definitely stay there next time in Edinburgh.

Fantastic, spacious rooms with everything you need while away, being able to have a walk around shops and come back to home from home environment made the stay enjoyable, Lovely and clean and very spacious, shower was amazing, me and my partner really couldn’t ask for a better place to stay for a few nights away.
