This hotel gave me immediate super villain lair vibes but I was blown away by the experience. It’s very fancy and nice and the rooms were so clean and perfect, bed was REALLY comfortable and given water, tea, coffee every day. Food expensive but wasn’t here for the food. Can tell it’s aimed at business people and not holiday makers.

This is a beautiful hotel. Our first visit to Scotland and will definitely be returning. We decided to use the transit system which gave us the opportunity to see parts around the outskirts of Edinburgh that we would not have seen had we had a car rental at this point of our trip.
