“This hotel makes an excellent base for exploring Edinburgh's Old Town, putting you steps from the castle and Royal Mile. I particularly like the thoughtful room design that creates distinct living and sleeping spaces. While the location is superb, light sleepers might want to pack earplugs, and I felt that breakfast missed the mark for a hotel of this caliber.”
