Lovely hotel and staff within walking distance to many including the Edinburgh castle. Front desk staff were excellent and can book a cab or offer tips and directions as well. The breakfast option is definitely worth adding. Highly recommend.

Good location to the prime tourist areas. Hotel was a little tired - had some issues with noise being below the “ Sky” bar. Was a little frustrated at their initial response to correcting the issue but eventually they came around to the right solution. ( but it took energy I don’t want to spend on holiday to get there) Breakfast convenient and average quality but you can find some fuel there to start the day. We paid a premium to be there over Hogmanay -and chose the Hilton brand as I use them a lot in my work travels…
