First floor is a mezzanine and the elevator doesn't stop there. Have to backtrack down several stairs (with luggage). Bus stops almost at hotel door. Parking is difficult in... More

“Great hotel bad. Bad location”

Reviewed 7 June 2013 via mobile

Hotel is very nice and relaxing, the staff were very friendly and helpful. The only down side is that its a bit from the city and is expensive on taxis to get in and out of the city. Relaxing if you want a quiet break.

“Close to Airport and a Small Collection of Restaurants”

We selected this hotel for its proximity to the airport, which it is very close to. As we were checking in, a giant senior citizens' tour group also arrived which made for some chaos in the lobby, but the staff seemed quite organized about it all. The rooms were pleasant, although if your room is on the third floor it... More

Was taken to this hotel as a surprise off my boyfriend for my birthday, got to be honest wasn't blown away with the room. It was just alright. It felt like it was more of a business hotel more than a romantic night away. The room was very hard to find when we got out the lift - the light... More

“Nice”

We had this hotel booked on beginning and end of our trip to Scotland. The hotel is very nice as is the restaurant. It is a bit out of town of old Edinburgh, but took about a 10ish minute taxi ride in costing about £15 each way but well worth it as parking down by the castle area is terrible.... More
