We only stayed for 2 nights, I'd booked as a surprise for my wife, and it turned out to be all I wanted and a whole lot more. Really nice hotel, a short walk from Princes Street and the tram stop, so very convenient but also very quiet too. The room was comfortable and well equipped, the food was very, very nice, we ended up eating there 3 times - as well as breakfast every morning which was also really good - such a varied number of options, deciding what to have was very difficult!! A special mention to the staff who were all really lovely, friendly, courteous, attentive, it really made a difference and was definitely the icing on the cake. I could not recommend this place enough.

Room was luxurious. Huge bathtub so I could have a good soak. Plenty of space for my stuff. Bed was so comfy. My only complaint was the noise. There’s a bar downstairs and it was very very loud. Thankfully I had earplugs or I’d have asked for a different room or left

Accommodation was faultless, room, decor and cleanliness unremarkable! We stay here ever year at this time and these are the main reasons, however we enjoy a nightcap in the bar but unfortunately when we returned at 2300hours it was closed due to staff shortages which ended our night earlier than it normally would.
