My stay at the hotel was good overall. The room was not exceptional considering the price, but it was clean, modern, and had everything we needed. The staff were friendly and helpful. The location was great, just a short walk from the center, and the service was pleasant. The dining experience was not the greatest, but the breakfast had a nice selection. Overall, a decent stay for the price.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were excellent, but unfortunately, I was placed on the bottom floor facing the delivery area, which led to early morning noise. Despite this, the hotel staff were accommodating and helpful. The location was convenient for exploring the city, although the weather could have been better. The dining options were average with room for improvement.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were lovely and very clean, although being on the 3rd floor below ground level made them feel a bit box-like with little natural light. The ongoing building work nearby and early morning noise from bin collections were a downside. The service was fantastic, with the staff recommending some delicious cocktails and being very helpful. The location was fab, especially for those visiting the Edinburgh Playhouse, but the dining experience was good with varied options, yet had some issues with organization. Despite some minor setbacks, the hotel offered great value for money.

I've stayed at this hotel on several occasions, and I must say the rooms are a nice big size down the hallway. The service was very helpful; they even surprised us with decorated honeymoon cookies in our room. The location couldn't be better, being a couple of minutes away from everything, and the staff were so welcoming and helpful. The dining experience was good overall, with an excellent selection, though the cooked breakfast was a bit disappointing. The facilities were great, and the price was indeed worth it due to the value you get.

The hotel's location was great, within walking distance of Edinburgh's centre and close to shops and drinks. The rooms were very clean, but overlooked a noisy building site and bins from a nearby pub. The bed was hard and small, not ideal for the winter months. The service was very accommodating, particularly Caterina, who made my partner's birthday special. The dining experience was slightly chaotic with some items missing, although they offered fresh fish. It was quite noisy due to inconsiderate guests. The location was convenient but noisy, near the theatre.

I stayed at a hotel that has a fantastic location, perfect to explore all of Edinburgh's sights. The rooms were clean but a bit noisy due to the proximity to the bins. The dining experience was lackluster with lukewarm food and limited hot options. Overall, a convenient location but with some room for improvement in noise levels and dining quality.
