What a fantastic stay, from the doorman to reception to the cleaning staff. this has been by far the best booking .com experience I have had

Craig, South Africa

The staff is very helpful and accommodating. Everyone greets you with a smile ready to help in any way possible. Our room was comfortable with a wonderful view of the Royal Mile. The hotel is in a great location within walking distance to many of the popular sights.

Aldo, USA

The staff was very friendly, and the room service food - which was from the restaurant, Cucina - was really good. I was there for a conference so didn't have time to go out too much, so actual good room service food was a bonus! The location was really good as well, walking distance to a lot of cafes and shops, and the university.

Jay9, United Arab Emirates

The bed is of great quality and very comfortable. A/C is working well. Room size is descent. Service during breakfast was good.

B, Germany

Food was excellent, service all departments was excellent. Shower was great

“Not worth 5 stars”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children
- • Signature Room - Double Room
- • Stayed 2 nights
눉The quality of the rooms and the furniture is not appropriate for a 5 star hotel. It rained in our room on the first night, the only reaction of the hotel was to place some towels on the floor, no room change/upgrade/discount on the bill was offered. Any other 5 star would have reacted differently. Furthermore, there were strong signs of water leakage throughout the premise and rooms. The tiles in the bathroom are starting to loose, dirt is accumulating in corners. The breakfast is okay, but not great, particularly the egg dishes can be improved. The same applies to the service in the lobby, where no drinks/food are proactively offered despite displaying both cakes and cafe in the corner of the entrance. The lobby-boys are standing there with nothing to do, nobody seems to care. Value for money is therefore disappointing at roughly 300gbp/night.
눇The bed is of great quality and very comfortable. A/C is working well. Room size is descent. Service during breakfast was good.
