GoodJan 20206,3
Property was clean, suite was nice and large, but a little chilly! Took a while to warm up, especially in the bathroom!
Staff in restaurant were helpful to a point. No real apology about food sent back then charged for it anyway. Had to complain to manager. At breakfast, felt like the enemy for complaining about food the previous evening!!

ExcellentJan 20209,0
Very clean, quiet, comfortable room and bed. Walk in shower in spacious bathroom (no bath). Good breakfast choice, quality and service. Evening meals in restaurant were excellent, especially good steaks with salt rub. Staff friendly and very helpful. Location good for walking to Royal Mile, city centre (Christmas markets), Arthur's Seat, etc. Will definitely stay here again on our next trip to Edingburgh.
Nothing.

Bed was very comfortable.
Only one square pin plug socket in room, so problem having both mobile phones and tablets.
