I booked the signature suite (Thierry Lombard) for my Wife’s birthday. It was fantastic. Loads of room and all the things you need for a stylish comfortable stay. The staff were great. We’ve stayed in Edinburgh many times and this is up with the best!
I love a quirky hotel, i.e., not the same tired layout for every room. This hotel is quirky, and does it with style and class. Amazing staff too - they're evidently proud of the place. Recommend.
Wonderful staff, especially front desk clerk Jennifer. The restaurant is very good, I recommend the Prime Rib. Breakfasts are nice too. One thing is, that the hotels history is not advertised on the Expedia and I was getting uneasy feelings in the hallway and in my bathroom. Haunted
Beautiful hotel with personalized and friendly service, nothing was too much trouble.
Tasteful decor, spacious rooms and open areas throughout the hotel.
Restaurant is a must do! The food is delicious.
Would definitely recommend.
Great location for getting out and about. The hotel facilitirs were the highlist and wish we had more time to experience them. Would definitely go back.
One of the best hotel I’ve ever been. We stayed on Christmas eve and they put a special christmas gift at our door. What a lovely touch! This is just an example of how this hotel will surprise you with hospitality.
Front desk were very polite and helpful. They always greeted us with a smile and we able to help answer any questions we had. We had a wonderful time there.
This hotel was wonderful, staff was incredibly friendly, central location to everything, and I can not recommend this location highly enough. You want to stay here when in Edinburgh.
Beautiful hotle in. A great position, 10 minute walk to the castle .
The service in the room was hit a miss , no replacement of towels then only one towel replaced thos
Wonderful building, beautiful rooms and fine dining . The staff were helpful and gave excellent suggestions and guidance on places to see . My birthday treats were an unexpected bonus and show the thoughtfulness of the reception staff . Highly recommend staying at the hotel.
