    "Had a lovely stay. Staff were helpful and friendly. " (107734105)

    Situated in a quiet area of Edinburgh just off the Royal Mile so we were not kept awake by any pub noise. Very good gym - well equipped. Swimming pool was really big.

    AT £17.50 per head the breakfast was way too expensive.

    The heating didn't work in our room and the bath was dirty on arrival

    "Enjoyed the stay but the breakfast service really let the hotel down very, very badly. Has put me off staying there again." (107769539)

    Very well presented hotel, beautiful furnishings, lovely room, nice & quiet, good location.

    Appalling service at breakfast. No acknowledgement. Had to ask for menu, had to ask for order to be taken, had to ask for tea 3 times, toast never arrived. It wasn't even busy.

    Restaurant staff very sloppy with exception of tall manager with black hair - didn't get his name! American guy very forgetful. Car parking cost extortionate!

    "In spite of problems, I would recommend. The room accommodations are excellent value." (107224051)

    Very nice room indeed, nice facilities. Friendly staff. Excellent location.

    Very bad experience with bag from airport. Hotel staff refused bag from airline even though we told them it was coming, resulting in long delay and hassle in getting belongings; this after a 20+ hour Trans-Atlantic trip. However, when bag arrived in wee hours, staff refused to accept, putting off arrival until numerous telephone calls and hours of waiting. Were also mistakenly charged for a 99GDP meal that we never had.

    "Pleasant modern hotel, good location, for the price of the room (pretty expensive), expected to be faultless but wallpaper ripped on wall and marks on the carpet - disappointing." (107114187)

    Modern clean hotel, friendly staff, great location as we were attending a wedding at our dynamic earth just across the road. Also only a 15 min walk into town and 5 min taxi ride to train station

    Wallpaper peeling off one wall, room quite dark, although "fluffy robes" provided, 1 could not be used as loop for belt missing.

    "Genral feeling is that it was expensive for the accommodation offered. Items were added to the room bills which were not used (breakfast, bar tab) and had to be taken off again on departure. I certainly wouldn`t use the rapid check out system as you could end up paying for a lot of unused extras if you don`t check the bill properly." (97284085)

    Well located for our purposes

    Extras on bills

    I was in Edinburgh for the Scotlnd v France rugby international and was only in the hotel for a short time at night, sleep and breakfast. In the time that I was there I felt that everything was very satisfactory and could not find any fault with the hotel and staff.

    "Upon arrival and throughout our stay the staff were all helpful and friendly. The facilities at the hotel were good, we used the pool and steam room one morning and that was very nice. Had I been staying longer I may have booked a treatment. I would definately want to return, if not to this specific hotel to another in your chain." (97909229)

    The rooms were very comfortable and well equipped. Whenever I needed the slightest assistance staff were more than helpfull. Even when I couldn't get the shower to run warm!

    I would have liked to had breakfast at the hotel but at £17.00 per head I thought it rather expensive. I feel this was the only draw back.

    very nice accommodation,free upgrade to 6th floor as it was our anniversary.

    "This a good hotel and I would recomend it, and may well stay again myself in the future." (97870919)

    The hotel is nice and clean through out and the use of the gym / health suite is great.

    The room rate is high considering breakfast is not included in that rate. I have stayed here previously at a lower rate with Breakfast included. This reduced the value for money that I felt Iwas getting.

    Location. Food. Overall quality - comfort

    T.V. in room. Plasma would have been more suitable. Exspensive drinks. Parking charge.

    "The location was at the end of the Royal Mile, in a quiet scenic area, and within easy walking distance of many shops (mostly tartan kilts and scarves etc) and bars of the 'old town'. It was just a stonesthrow away from the Scottish Parliament, Holyrood Palace. Mother Earth and Holyrood Park. The 'new town'(all the modern high street shops) was a little further away with a hilly 15/20 min walk, but there were usually taxis across the road." (99316833)

    The food was nice and good quality. The pool was big enough. The staff were mostlt pleasant and helpful.

    The evening meal service was slow (3 courses). Drinks were quite expensive.

    "the hotel has a good location, walking distance from the center of the city, a few needed services were close and available. all requested assistance was taken care off, such as Taxis and travel tours were easily summoned by staff." (97088878)

    it was homely, placed in a quiet area, staff were hospitable,pleasant and helpfull.

    the TV channels in the rooms were very limmited to few local channels, additional international satellite News and commedy show channels would have been informative and delightful, I would also appreciate an internet connection in the room. also adding a simple breakfast to the rate of room would have been appropriate, a sum of fifteen pound sterling breakfast rate was very expensive.

    evening turn down service is great.

    Our room was located too close to the lift and a rather creeky door!so noise from other guests did wake us too early.

    Some sort of alarm went off in our room at the time when we were meant to check out, presumably to remind us to leave. Think this was a bit rude!

All the staff we came across from the ladies who turned the beds down to the reception staff, were very polite and couldn't do enough for us, they all made us feel very special." (99482286)

    I particularly liked the location of this hotel. It is located in a quiet, but very convenient area of Edinburgh.

    I was a bit disappointed with the swimming pool, which in my opinion could do with a bit of a face lift.

    1. I do not like to have to pay extra for internet access when the room costs so much. 2. Cheap TV with only 5 channels and lousy picture. 3. Dirty bathroom floor, which was not cleaned throughout our stay. 4. Did not receive a newspaper on any of the mornings, even though I notified reception. 5. The breakfast was far too expensive, especially when all that was ordered was bacon and eggs, which cost
