My stay at the hotel was lovely, with delightful cocktails and even better service. The room was comfortable, equipped with a good shower, and had a nice selection of tea and coffee, although it could benefit from a freshen up. One minor inconvenience was having to drink from tea cups.

The location was perfect for my needs, close to the station and conveniently near the bus stop I required. The staff's helpfulness in swiftly arranging a move to a quieter room after my first night was greatly appreciated. Although spending most of the time sitting on the bed was not ideal, the hotel's proximity to everything Edinburgh has to offer made up for it.

The hotel offers spacious, stylish, and comfortable rooms, each themed around different cities, with a warm welcome including a glass of champagne and a room upgrade to the Casablanca suite. The service was attentive, with small thoughtful gestures like lending an umbrella on a rainy day, although there were minor lapses in the dining service. The location is perfect for exploring the city, being close to central sights and amenities, despite some noise issues. The dining experience was pleasant overall, with a delicious Scottish breakfast but at an additional charge. The hotel facilities were convenient and well-maintained, enhancing the overall stay.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room was spacious and bright with a lovely bathroom, but it lacked any luxury and was noisy outside, making it a bit uncomfortable. The service was generally good, with friendly staff, although there was one less pleasant encounter. The location was excellent, right in the heart of Edinburgh's New Town with plenty of dining and shopping options nearby. The dining experience was satisfactory but could be improved. Overall, a decent stay with room for enhancement.
