Decent
Lovely place. The bar below is beautifully decorated, as are the bedrooms. We did have a few issues while staying. We paid for the larger executive room but were put in the much smaller basic. This was resolved at checkout by removing a drink that we had had and giving us 30% off a future meal. Also, there was live music in the bar and we were in the room directly above. Even though we werent in the bar, we felt like we were. So if you stay, you might want to go another floor up. And lastly, even though we had paid for our room and breakfast prior to staying, we were charged a second time on our credit card. We only noticed this on returning home. This was resolved after a few phone calls and an email.

Beautiful boutique hotel on Royal Mile - perfect!!
This is a fabulous little boutique hotel/inn, the perfect choice for my second trip to Edinburgh. It is right in the middle of the Royal Mile, between Edinburgh Castle and Holyrood Palace. Easily walkable to all central sights, and to numerous coffee shops, pubs, restaurants. Walkable to Festival Theatre and Edinburgh Playhouse also. The pub attached to the Inn is perfect - great ambience (live music at night) and very good food! Room was lovely and very clean. Great shower and large soaking tub. Only caution is steep stairs to get to rooms - not for anyone with mobility issues or lots of heavy luggage. But perfect choice otherwise - I will definitely stay again.

Dont Book
Booked a 2 night stay and wouldn't go back. On arriving , trying to check in, was advised that the mansger would be 5/10 minutes so had to stand and wait to get checked in. Room very nice. Had paid for breakfast for both mornings. Went down on 1st morning for breakfast at 10am only to be told that there was no chef so couldn't get breakfast at hotel but could walk down to the Scotsman Hotel and they would provide us with breakfast. Was then advised from the General Manager that sometimes they don't do breakfast at hotel and you would have to walk to Scotsman Hotel to get this. No where on website does it state this.
