"Edinburgh is very chaotic/touristy on the Royal Mile and this was right in the chaos, however, it felt very safe & the room itself was very spacious, clean & worth the price for it all. I had to contact them once for directions and they answered right away and were super helpful. It sucks there are stairs you have to carry your luggage up and the luggage room was on the first floor, very small/crowded & right next to our apartment room door, but it didn’t seem to get too loud or an issue when...

"It was an absolutely beautiful hotel conveniently located across from the Edinburgh train station. It had a nice blend of old-school charm with modern style and amenities. The staff were pleasant and helpful and the view from the restaurant was breathtaking. The room had a great use of space to make it seem even bigger. The mini bar was included as well as champagne during our stay and we felt extremely pampered and like royalty."
