Excellent place to stay if you want to be in Old Town. Lovely, nice sized room! Would definitely stay here again! Did not try the onsite restaurant/bar but it looked very good!
Fantastic Boxing Day stay, our accommodation was stunning as we were given a complimentary upgrade. All staff were really friendly and efficient. Hotel had a beautiful relaxed feel. Will definitely return
Staff were incredibly kind! We eloped during our stay, and the staff made sure to make us feel special and make our time magical. Very friendly and very kind people! Excellent walking distance to all major sites in Edinburgh.
Hotel itself was fine, great location, nice ambiance, friendly staff. Room was small but comfortable bed and great shower. What really let it down was the supposedly French restaurant. The food was bland and tasteless. The Mushroom starter no noticeable Madeira, sourdough not toasted. Prawn starter no Pastis. First Provençal fish stew served with uncooked fish, second totally bland. Beef Bourginion lacking any of the richness that this dish should have. Cheese board actually quite good but very small pieces. Very disappointing.
I absolutely love the staff the most. Everyone was very friendly, helpful, nice, and overall, just the best customer service ever. I also absolutely love the atmosphere and vibe, the convenience to everywhere I wanted to go in the Old Town, as well as my amazing room and most def the food as well. Thank you,
