Reviews and Ratings
The hotel's location is amazing, with a lovely view across Princes Street to the Castle, though the rooms can be a bit drafty and the paintwork is a bit grubby in places. The service was good, with professional and friendly staff who possess good knowledge of local food and drinks. The hotel offers dry cleaning, housekeeping, welcome drink, and tours/ticket assistance. The location is the most significant asset, right on Princes Street. However, the dining experience was disappointing, with dried-up food and stained chairs. Overall, the hotel is clean, comfortable, and central, offering value for its prime location.
My stay at the hotel was overall fantastic. The rooms were clean and the bathroom was lovely and spacious, which was a great touch. The view from the back wasn't ideal as it faced a building site, but it didn't affect my positive experience. The full hot breakfast was a delightful surprise, and the staff were incredibly polite, helpful, and always cheerful. I couldn't find fault with the service or the hotel. Thanks, David!
I found the hotel to be a mixed bag - while the staff were friendly and welcoming, the room was disappointing. The location was convenient but had some drawbacks.
The hotel offers acceptable rooms with decent value for money, though the internet could be slightly improved. The service is attentive and helpful, ensuring a positive experience overall. situated in a fantastic location near the railway and within walking distance of key attractions. The dining experience, while delicious, may feel a bit limited. Overall, a convenient choice for travelers.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The location is superb, allowing easy access to everywhere, including shopping and dining spots. The rooms had stunning views of the Scott Monument on Princess Street, with a perfect hot shower. However, there was an early wake-up call due to workers making noise. The service was great, especially accommodating my jet-lagged self for a late meal. The dining experience left something to be desired due to limited options. The hotel facilities were satisfactory.
