Lovely helpful staff. Rooms good - everything wd needed. Breakfast set up runs really well. One criticism ... bar staff lovely kind gentle people, but incredibly slow. Need more urgency and to kniw whk to serve next at a busy bar (by looking up and making eye contact). The Sat pm bar manager should have been on it more, supporting and developing her team and on her phone less! Otherwise we really like this hotel and stay regularly.

A great location, with Edinburgh Zoo to the rear and expansive views to the Pentland Hills in front. Parking was a breeze and good public transport into the centre - not far away. Indoors thoughtfully updated. The staff were skilled - professional, courteous and very friendly. We took a Compact room at a reasonable price. It was well designed, spotless, comfortable and quiet. Will definitely return, for longer next time.
