Located in old heritage building. A lot of charm but not a lot of comfort. The toilet in our room didn’t flush and the shower was weirdly cordoned off by only a shower curtain from the rest of the bathroom. I would most definitely not stay here again. There are so many better, modern options equally or better located that cost less.

Fantastic position next to trams and loads of fab restaurants. Drinks on level 6 of dept store next door were a highlight. Breakfast very lush and amazing - definitely add it to your booking. Having the best washer/dryer in the room was brilliant after weeks of travelling. Comfy bed and lovely amenities. Will be back!!!

This is a beautiful hotel to stay at and there was one front desk superstar - I believe her name was Abby (blonde hair) - that really made this a wonderful experience with her recommendations and friendliness. The hotel is in a great location near the train, bus lines, an upscale shopping strip, mall, good restaurants, Prince Street, and a Marks & Spencer grocery/department store. The walk to Royal Mile and all the activity in Old Town is less than 10minutes. We stayed in the one-bedroom loft which was lovely. The only thing is the staircase landing is less than 2ft from a window and there's a glass railing, so you must squeeze between the glass and the window to access the stairs. We were fine with it because we're short and petite, but not sure if, say, a taller, larger male would manage as well. There are other apartment-style rooms to choose from, though. I'd definitely stay here again.

Great apartments!

Amazing stay. Great location and the staff were absolutely lovely and couldn’t help more. The apartment itself was gorgeous, couldn’t fault that at all!! The only issue we had was parking in the car park their website states (train station), but when checking out, they could only validate for parking at st James quarter- so be wary where you park! Other than that issue, it was a lovely stay

The interior was stunning! My room had everything that I could possibly need! The staff were so helpful, and the location was close to everything but also in a quiet area. I will definitely stay here again if given the chance.

Outstanding Hotel

Amazing place. Really appreciated the birthday wishes. Staff were great. Brilliant hotel in an ideal location. The only thing that let it down was the distinct lack of breakfast seating. I feel you should really provide proper tables for eating. Sitting on a settee is not comfortable for breakfast consumption.
