The view from the bedroom was fantastic. We were bowled over by it. Worth the extra money. Very clean room, comfy beds, plenty of complimentary snacks and drinks. Tasty breakfast with lots of choice. Staff mostly friendly and accommodating (receptionist on arrival was a little unwelcoming). Having arrived on the Caledonian Sleeper at 7.30 am, we weren’t expecting our room to be ready, but felt we had to wait too long for access (finally got in at around 2). Was told I’d be notified on my mobile when the room was ready, but I wasn’t. Also our suitcase wasn’t brought up so went down and collected it ourselves.

fabulous location, great service . lovely staff , clean tidy and very comfortable.

very clean, the staff are all friendly and smiling. the hotel is walking distance from Waverley Train Station. the breakfast menu is good too. easy access to everything. there is gym too with available towels, mats and water.

Everything, really helpful and very personalised service. First date with somebody and they were so courteous, helpful and as excited as I was!

great location, fabulous staff and lovely and clean.

location and the room is nice. breakfast was amazing too

Location could not be better. Room excellent but need a leaflet to give information re internet. Meal times etc

Excellent location. Luxurious feel to public areas in hotel. Very clean. Very friendly and helpful staff. Choice of food at breakfast good.

Great location, very close to the train station and easy to get to all the main sightseeing attractions. Nice room, very clean although quite small for the price paid. There was a good choice at breakfast and all staff were extremely friendly and helpful. We were visiting Edinburgh for my birthday and cake and a card was waiting in the room on our arrival which was a nice touch.

Breakfast was very good but the coffee was terrible. No haggis left on the buffet disappointedly. Nice selection of food.
