From the moment we arrived, the experience was exceptional. The concierge team warmly welcomed us at the front door, and the lovely lady at check-in went above and beyond to accommodate a specific request. Every member of staff worked incredibly hard, and it truly showed. Breakfast was absolutely outstanding, everything was perfectly presented, and the service throughout our stay was top-notch. Honestly, what a fantastic place to stay. The gym, swimming pool, and spa facilities were all excellent. What really stood out was how much the team genuinely cared about their guests, they always took the time to chat with us, ask about our day, and offer thoughtful suggestions. The location is simply perfect for exploring Edinburgh from every angle. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay.

Stay at this hotel. It felt like our home away from home in Edinburgh. Rianne (I think that’s how her name is spelled) and the staff were so welcoming and accommodating, which makes a big difference when you’re traveling in a foreign country. The bed was comfy, the breakfast was the best we had at any hotel in Scotland, the location was excellent - central to everything but still pretty quiet for a good night’s rest. Also, we always saw the housekeeping team working very hard to keep the hotel clean. Thank you to the whole team for a wonderful stay. We can’t wait to return!

Hotel lobby and public areas were lovely with nice decor and amenities. However our room needed some TLC. The roof was pulling away from the walls in the entrance to the room allowing us to see insulation. The shower was unfortunately a touch dangerous to use. The waterfall shower head only came inches from the wall meaning you had to stand at the very edge of the tub against the wall to use it which was a slip and fall waiting to happen. Overall location and hotel itself were nice but for the cost per night a few small upkeep items and changes to the shower would make this stay 5/5.

The room was clean. The staff in the breakfast area were great. However, the front "tea area" staff were not so good. It would take on average 20-30 minutes to receive a pot of tea. an even at that each night it was different, and to a point where it was undrinkable. One night we arrived for tea and desert and was told by the waitress that she had to get permission from her manager if we could sit and have tea, the area was empty. The best person I would say was Jay at the concierge station. Very professional, and always with a smile.

We had very good customer service and experience until the last hour of our visit. At checkout, called front desk for help with luggage, promised to send someone ‘right up’. 15 min later called again because they never came right up. Bell desk proceeded to tell us should have left our stuff in room and just come down. As if we would know that after speaking with front desk. Finally bellhop brings our stuff down on the luggage cart, loses control, and dumped all our stuff on the wet filthy Edinburgh sidewalk. Brand new coats, my wife’s toiletries rolling across the street. Of course, No accountability, immediately blamed it on ‘colleagues’ for loading it ‘incorrectly’. picked everything up, got car loaded. I decided to tip him anyways because I worked service once upon a time and handed him a five. Instead of saying ‘thank you’, he said ‘yeah’. Needless to say, his attitude and ungratefulness was unexpected after dumping our possessions into the middle of the sidewalk. My wife went back in to see if they could find a glove the same bell desk lost when they brought our items in for check-in. Same bellhop was completely flippant - “it’s Edinburgh, we don’t have your glove, anyone could have picked it up”. very beautiful hotel, fitness / spa very nice, breakfast is excellent, customer service we received from everyone else was top notch. Will give them benefit of doubt, & probably come again, but might not ask for any more ‘help’ from bell desk.
