Beautifully appointed room (11), old world elegant and charming. Very comfortable bed and luxury feel linen. Bath was very large, tons of hot water. Breakfast was a lovely range of options, i had the smoked salmon and scrambled eggs, OH had Full Scottish, both delicious. We will be back everytime we come to Edinburgh.

Wonderful Room… just too warm

Everything was good except the room was very warm. We turned the radiators off, but it stayed rather warm. The window would not stay open to cool it down. Thankfully there was a fan. If there had not been a fan we would not have been able to sleep. The bathroom stayed blazing. The hallways leading to the rooms were extremely warm as well. Other than that the room was wonderful, service was great.

This is a quaint property close to the Princes street in Edinburgh. It is a quiet and safe area close enough to the tourist attractions but away from the chaos and bustle of the Royal mile and markets. It has an old world charm and the rooms are well appointed and clean, with all features that you would expect.

A nice weekend away

A couple of nights to Edinburgh. The reception staff went above and beyond to help. The breakfast was substantial but nay Haggis. The bar prices very reasonable and the staff very friendly. My only comment is the lack of accessible 14a Sockets in Room 21. Only two double sockets with USB ports , one behind the kettle and the other at floor level slightly obscured by the desk.

Lovely property and lovely staff. I true experience of Scotland. The room was very clean with only a cobweb to be honest. The room was so lovely, the tub was nice and hot, again the only truth being they didn’t remove the stickers from the side of the toilet. Absolutely highly recommended.
