I thought the location was fantastic and the room very comfortable indeed. Probably the most comfortable hotel bed I have ever slept in! Our bathroom fan was not working and the breakfast was cold. Service at breakfast was not very good either but the other hotel staff were excellent. |

Efficient staff; unobtrusive and helpful; well appointed rooms; high quality catering No parking...some of the breakfast tables were too small in the bar area to manage the number of breakfast items. |

The location was impressive and very convenient for the city centre. However the lack of any parking places meant a long shlep with our bags from the nearest public car park. The rooms are becoming quite tired. No air-conditioning and therefore the window needs to be open which lets in all the traffic noise and the bin-men noise at early in the morning. Also the biggest complaint was the lack of breakfast space in the restaurant. Having to queue up for breakfast in a 4 star hotel is totally unacceptable. I complained to the duty manager and was fobbed off with the excuse that it was "because everybody seems to come down at the same time!" |

The standard of the facilities are excellent, the food is delicious and varied and the staff do their utmost to ensure a friendly, personalised service, We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and even more so with the 'treat your partner' special offer package. Would recommend to anyone |

The location was very good the Staff where always polite and friendly . Check in time we arrived very early in the morning we where asked to come back to check in as the room was not available we where given a time of 1.00pm when we returned at 2.30pm the room was still not ready we had to wait in the Bar for a future 30-40 minutes As this was not a cheap hotel i would have expected service to reflect the price. |

the bed was comfortable, most of the staff were friendly and helpful, the view from the room was ok the toilet did not flush properly, room service took ages and some items were wrong or incomplete, at breakfast the staff were clearly rushed off their feet, we were seated at a table that was already occupied. staff had cleared the tea and toast while the couple were collecting their breakfast! they returned to the table to find us sitting there! service was non existent. I had to get up and approach staff to get coffee. I did notice that the staff serving the other side of the room were very attentive however. not keen on having to queue for breakfast! have been in hotels allover Europe, including Eastern Europe, and this has never happened. and don't get me started on the flute player at 4 in the morning! |

Lack of any parking or valet service. At 2300 in the evening the only advice was to go to the NCP about half a mile away and walk back! |

We didn't like the first room assigned as it was over outside garbage bins making it excessively noisy when the pub's beer bottles were dumped. The new room was outstanding however. |

Perfect location for walking around shopping area of George Street and St James Centre.A grand entrance hall and restaurant and the breakfast was very good. Parking is a nightmare, though there are multi storey car parks a walk away. |

Thankfully the rooms were pleasant because everything else was a disaster especially the staff and thier lack of manners and absolutely no tact (As above) It takes more than a posh looking hotel to makr it a nice place to stay. i would not return. |

The staff were extremely pleasant, very helpful and friendly. For a city hotel the room was extremely quiet. The location was excellent for access to shops, castle, railway station etc. Cleanlines of the hotel was also excellent. We will be back! |

Everything was first class! We had a room upgrade and it was really lovely, very clean and fresh. Staff were also very helpful and friendly, with plenty to eat for breakfast. Also couldn't get any more central in Edinburgh - nice area. |

This an excelent hotel with a great location as long you pay a reasonable price for it. Their rack rates seem very high. Our rate was very good through booking.com The rooms were on the small side. |

Central Location, good sized rooms, breakfast offering was attractive and well organised. Neither the fixed or wireless broadband in the hotel worked, pointless for a business hotel. Food closed very early and there was a limited menu from room service.Extremely noisy - poor quality windows offered little sound insulation - despite asking for a quiet room |
