Managed to park for free sat pm and all day sun. Walkable to Princes Street and Lothian Road. Cooked breakfast was good. although did feel chased away from table by the man who appeared incharge hovering and removing plates before you'd put your fork down. Rest of staff were all very polite. Did feel chased away from table at breakfast by the man who appeared incharge hovering and removing plates as you'd put your fork down. He then sat down whilst quests still eating and had his breakfast. Over priced for a 2* hotel.

The staff are excellent. My husband and I have stayed here several times, and the continuity of good staff service is fantastic. Have started to notoice that the bedrooms, although clean, are getting a little shabby.

The exterior of the hotel was lovely and in keeping with the city. The location was brilliant for the train station, Grassmarket and castle. Some of the staff were stand-offish and unhelpful. The breakfast was fairly basic and stood under heat lamps for a long time before being served, resulting in rubbery eggs etc. We paid for a double room, but in fact the bed was two singles zipped together in the middle. The taxi service which reception staff recommended to us on a trip to Leith (5 minutes by car) was a complete rip off, and we got the return journey by black cab (which should be significantly more expensive) for half the price.

A good, value for money hotel close to the city centre. Very comfortable rooms with tv and tea making facilities although the bathrooms are on the small size. No complaints from anyone in a party of ten sharing three triple rooms and one double. No complaints.

Good location, reasonablypriced, lovely staff, clean. It has a lift. For a city as cold as Edinburgh in winter the heating was not the best. Besides the staff it felt a little impersonal.

The staff was very accomodating and very helpful. The room was very nice. This was our last night in Edinburgh and we were exhausted after four days of duck hunting so we really did not have a chance to explore our surroundings.
