I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The room was extremely comfortable and of a high standard at a very reasonable overnight rate. The settee and spacious bathroom were great additions, and the soundproofing made for a perfect night's sleep. The service was top-notch, with attentive staff, although a bit overwhelmed at times. The location was excellent, close to Morningside with convenient public transport options. The dining experience was fantastic, especially the complimentary breakfast offering a variety of delicious choices. Overall, a great value for money with some minor areas that could be improved.

I stayed at the hotel for a function and found it to be a perfect place for my needs. The rooms were spacious and had modern fittings, although on the second floor. The service was friendly but a bit overwhelmed at times. The location was convenient, within walking distance of a family member I was visiting. The complimentary breakfast was fantastic, offering a variety of options. The facilities were adequate, although there was nowhere to put a bedside lamp.

The hotel offers spacious and clean rooms designed for people with limited mobility. Although the service was friendly, the rush during check-out was a downside. The location, just out of the center, is beautiful and quiet, allowing easy access to a park and the old canal. The dining experience was average but satisfactory for the price.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were small but comfortable enough, and the bathroom was excellent. However, there was a strong draft entering from the window, making the room very cold. The service was friendly and helpful in resolving an issue with our room assignment, but the quality of the rooms could have been better. The location was great for our needs, being quiet yet close to bus stops and within walking distance of the city center. The dining experience was decent, with some tasty options, though not outstanding. The facilities were satisfactory overall.

I stayed at this charming hotel located in a leafy suburb with character and charm, offering a warm welcome that is often missing in chain hotels. The rooms were warm, a good size, and overlooked the service area. The service was provided with a smile despite the staff being a bit stretched. The location was convenient for exploring the city by foot or bus, with large bay windows providing views of the neighboring tennis courts/park area. The dining experience was delightful, offering a complimentary breakfast with a full Scottish spread. The facilities were satisfactory, enhancing my overall stay.

The hotel is situated in a lovely, quiet area of Edinburgh, close to a bus stop that conveniently takes you right into town. The rooms are well presented, especially those located on the top floors, offering a comfortable stay. However, the dining experience left something to be desired with limited breakfast choices. The service, while generally good, could benefit from additional staff for a more personalized touch. Overall, a peaceful location with clean and modern rooms but could use improvements in dining and service.

The hotel was cozy and warm in the 'loft' area, though a bit cramped with a small wardrobe. The service was friendly but lacked proactive assistance. The location was excellent for our needs, and the gardener worked diligently even in bad weather. The dining was decent, more reminiscent of a hostel than a 3-star hotel.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were beautifully designed, allowing for a late check-out which was fantastic, but they lacked windows, posing a potential safety concern. The staff, however, went above and beyond to accommodate us, despite initial hesitation from the receptionist. Service was top-notch, with well-trained and welcoming staff assisting with special requests for a vegetarian breakfast. The location was convenient for exploring Edinburgh, being close to transport links, albeit facing onto a rear car park. The dining experience felt more basic than expected for a 3-star hotel, although the breakfast was served promptly, resembling a simpler hostel meal. Overall, a stay with ups and downs.
