Excellent short break
Super location, got off the tram from the airport outside the hotel. Central to everything Edinburgh. Staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly. Breakfast was busy but we were warned by hotel of when the busiest time was if we wanted to avoid it, but the food was good and plentiful with a wide choice. I would definitely stay here again.

A good place to stay
The room was clean and comfortable. The only downside was that our room was right next to a fire door, and on one morning the door banged continually with people going to and from breakfast. Other mornings it was open, so no problem.
