“The location, a short walk from Waverley station and Calton Hill, places you perfectly for exploring Edinburgh. I appreciate the blend of Jacobean and Georgian styles, along with the old lift. It all gives a feel of actually living in the city's history, with a whisky bar downstairs for a nightcap.”
