The Hotel du Vin and Bistro seems to be one of the nicest hotels in Old Edinburgh, close to all of the main tourist attractions. I loved the L'Occitane products in the bathroom. The service was a little lacking, but I would stay there again.

Excellent hotel! Fantastic staff, especially Chelsea, Jenny and Sam. Ben is the manager and he was great too! The hotel is in the perfect location. Close to everything but away from the noise.
