My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of our stay. Super friendly staff. Our room (Cozy room) was wonderful, comprising an extremely comfortable bed, a brilliant shower, and a well-laid-out room. The breakfast choice was superb and the freshly made options (that we chose) were super tasty. A lovely view from the restaurant (to the north) across the city added to a lovely breakfast experience. We did not want to leave. The whole experience was so good we are returning for another stay.

Very unusual and interesting concept of the hotel. Quiet and comfortable, secure. The staff was great. We were pleased with a personal touch of the greetings we found on the desk. Another unusual but interesting thing was a guitar above the desk, and I played some songs, which was a nice touch. A gramophone with disks were also a nice touch for a generation X I beling to. A tasty beer and food in the bar. Central location, steps aside from main attractions.

TO start the staff was ALL amazing! They were so kind and helpful, it was incredible. One of the best experiences I have had at a hotel. The room was beautiful with the most incredible mini bar I have ever seen. We partook in quite a bit of that. The bed was super comfortable. The toiletries were top notch and they even had a robe, slippers, hair dryer & straightener!! I was in heaven. The design is stunning with a ton of beautiful and cool funky art. The breakfast was mouth watering. Even if not staying there you should totally eat there. My husband said it was the best chicken and waffles he has ever had. It was the perfect stay I wish we had planned a longer stay here. Next time we are back in Edinburgh we will 100% stay here!
