"Excellent hotel in a brilliant location, situated right on the Royal Mile. Checkin was busy but very quick and eficient. Hotel had overlooked request for twin beds but this was promptly rectified by housekeeping. Decent sized room spotlessly clean with full bath, overhead shower and ample soaps etc. Room was very quiet, breakfast was excelent."
"Great location, 7 min walk from the Edinburgh Castle, minutes to great gelato, adult beverages, and easy access to most Fringe shows! Will stay again in the future!"
