Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were nice overall, but there were some issues like a door handle hanging off and leftover food in the fridge. On the positive side, the room heater worked great and didn't look out of place. The location was excellent, close to everything you need, but the dining options left something to be desired.
I loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms, themed around Scottish icons and with names and pictures of famous Scottish people, were quiet and perfect for a good night's sleep. The service was top class, with fantastic and very friendly staff. The location was excellent, close to shopping, Edinburgh Castle, and great restaurants. The dining experience had its ups and downs but overall good. Overall, a great value for the money.
The hotel's location is perfect for exploring Edinburgh, with direct access to key attractions. The rooms are nicely decorated with a quirky Scottish touch, but had several maintenance issues. The service received was extremely helpful and welcoming. The dining experience was exceptional, offering delicious options. Despite some room maintenance issues, the hotel still offers a great location and excellent service.
The hotel is ideally located towards the west end of Edinburgh, making it perfect for accessing all main areas, with clean and spacious rooms. The service was exceptional, and the Scottish-themed rooms added a nice touch. However, the dining options were not impressive, and there were minor maintenance issues in the rooms.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were a bit odd, but cozy if you focused on the bed. Unfortunately, the layout was not well thought out, especially with the shower not staying in its holder and causing water to spray everywhere. On the bright side, the service was very helpful and kind, with staff members going above and beyond to assist me. The location was perfect for exploring the city, with everything conveniently close by, though the dining experience had its flaws. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
The hotel is located at the top of Princess Street on Hope Street, offering great access to various attractions like the Royal Mile, Edinburgh Castle, and the Royal Botanical Gardens. The themed rooms are a unique touch, and the central location provides easy access to transport links and major sights. The hand sanitizer availability is reassuring, although the alley location may pose some minor inconvenience.
