First time in Edinburgh! Very impressive hotel in perfect location : close to Waverley Train Station, Royal Mile, and everything one can wish for. Perfect suite for a family of three adults! Highly recommend it. Current construction outside may affect its appeal but it’s the inside facilities that matters.

The staff were very welcoming and helpful, we even received some unexpected complimentary gifts that made our stay even more special. The breakfast buffet had plenty of options and the passion fruit martini's are the bomb. The room was very comfortable and fairly quiet considering the work happening outside.

Staff and hotel were excellent. We did not eat there as there was so many other choices. Outside area was under construction limiting access and creating noise during the day. It was quiet in the evening. Staff arranged at 3:00 AM cab for us which was a big help

I absolutely love the location of this property. It is located just off the royal mile as well as close to the waverly train station. My only complaints would be about the street construction going on in front of the hotel which made it a bit difficult for airport transfers but that is of no fault of the hotel property. The hotel bar was a little lacking for variety of alcohols available and lack of ambiance for a bar setting. We mostly went off property for a drink because of this. Overall though I loved the hotel and would absolutely stay again!
