My son and I stayed for 2 nights in March. The hotel is in a fantastic location for exploring Edinburgh but just a little way from the hustle. The rooms are very comfortable and well equipped. The hotel also has lots of interesting aspects because of its military Club association. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend. Excellent value for money.

Quiet comfort

Peaceful, clean and well located. Would be 5/5 if the internet had been more reliable (no mobile service in room so was dependent on the hotel's WiFi).

Everything in room to meet your needs. Reception staff very helpful. Rooms very comfortable, good size and great pillows with huge bed. Lovely friendly environment and not far to walk to centre but in a nice quiet and safe location, plus handy for bus routes.
