Lovely building, great location bang in the middle of the historic city of Dunfermline, in the Kingdom of Fife. Great breakfast, but disappointed in Scotland that there was a thin choice of whisky.

I had booked a king size room and was given an interconnecting room. We could hear everything from that room ie when they were walking to the bathroom during the night it sounded like they were in our room. Also we could hear them clearly in the bathroom. We were then wakened very early and couldn’t get back to sleep. Was a shame as everything else was great but the room was terrible

One of my favourite places to stay
I stay at this hotel often as it’s got excellent transport links by rail and bus to central Edinburgh but without the expensive prices . Excellent breakfast in the mornings, comfy rooms and lgbt friendly staff What’s not to like

Gem of a hotel in the middle of town
We loved this hotel (with the exception of no lifts, so carrying luggage from parking lot to room was over 40 stairs). We opted to just pull what we needed from luggage as we couldn't lift ourselves. Hotel is situated right in town near shopping and castle. We loved the location and the hotel. Staff was extremely friendly and accommocating.

Very central. Friendly helpful staff. Our room was above a very noisy busy bar which didn’t end until 12.30 am. Not conducive to a restful evening or sleep. It was a Saturday night, people should enjoy themselves. However we could have been allocated a room away from the bar noise.
