Needs urgent updating
Whole hotel needs urgent updating from the corridors, stairs and room. Wallpaper coming off wall, woodwork chipped, wardrobe door was missing and could not close bathroom door. Shower very poor, but bathroom and bed clean. Breakfast very good.

Nice hotel
It was generally really nice. Its a great hotel, brilliantly situated to go into town with bus stop really close to the hotel and taxi options at the front desk. Only thing that let it down was that, although breakfast was included in our booking, they told us when we checked in that it wasn't, and if we wanted the hot buffet it would be £14.95. I checked our booking the following morning, saw it was included, and challenged them at reception. They then said that they'd tried to find us after booking in to say it had been added. Went for breakfast to be told we we're not on the list. Lady kindly went to reception and came back to say they had given her wrong info?? We eventually got breakfast, but it was kind of stressful and we were in a rush as we had a tour booked.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Very poor experience from the start. Arrived and waited at reception 20 minutes before anyone appeared. They have two bells on the desk, both broken. Barry then appeared, creepy vibes. Found the room, it was freezing cold. Radiator not working but electric heater provided. Slowly heated the room.. damage visible everywhere you look. Blind missing in bedroom. Curtains barely holding to the track. Tv fitted with incorrect screws and hanging off the wall. Comfortable bed- the only positive. No ironing facilities. Bath doesn’t drain water properly so it just sits there for ages. Water pressure very low. Musty smell in bathroom probably from blocked drains. Not work £160 per night, more like £40 per night.

Great Hotel for accessing Edinburgh
The staff at reception and the whole hotel, were welcoming, friendly and helpful. The breakfeast was excellent and the hotel is well postioned for good walks at the hermitage and with a bus stop just across the road making the city easily accessible.

Staff were very helpful, organising taxi, etc. Room was comfortable and clean. We had a room on 2 floors, with our own outside patio space. Breakfast was a buffet with plenty of choice. An enjoyable stay.
