Nice hotel very well situated on the outskirts of Edinburgh. Check in was nice and easy, room was tidy. Breakfast was ok with plenty of hot food choice.
Very friendly and welcoming staff. The room was in decent condition. Some small toothpaste or soap stains on the bathroom floor and the radiator was a little weak. But had a good stay nonetheless. The location is nice and quiet. Not too far to drive to the city centre
Great service and lovely reception staff, would visit again!

Food was absolutly lovely but a little slitghley over priced comfort of room wasnt too bad slightly dated stained walls chairs and brown stain on bedding final night we had a issue with a mouse running round the room so had to be moved rooms parking was excellent plenty of spaces staff were more than accomadating just a few minor alterations but overall a good stay
Very good stay with no complaints. The breakfast was amazing, free carpark and closed to all amenities. Around just over half an hour walk to the castle of Edinburgh and there's also a bus stop right outside to get us to the centre.
The check out should be at 12pm and not 11am... Apart from that, everything else was good and I will stay there again.
The room was spacious but also freezing cold. I put on the electric heater which was not of much help.
The central heating stopped at 10pm and didn’t resume til about 7am.
Breakfast was served at 8am but I had a meeting at 9am meaning I skipped it and had something on the go.
Loved this hotel, my room gave me the wow that was looking for. If I had to pick at it I could only say that it just needed a bit of DIY, but over all it was just WOW
Elegant and comfortable. Excellent breakfast. Tucked into a quiet residential area, but there are pleasant walks and it is close to transit.
