Great position on main road
This was a great hotel, obviously been in business some time with experienced management. Everything about the hotel was was lovely with one exception. We were in an attic room with two small circular windows and restricted headroom in the bed area and the bathroom - having booked online via a third party I have to say that we were a little dissapointed that the room was nothing like the standard that the photo led us to expect,

Great Location
Hotel was in a great location with a fantastic view of the castle. We could easily walk everywhere we wanted to go. One of us thought the bed wasn’t all that comfortable, but being able to hear the dress rehearsals of the Edinburgh Tattoo was worth it.

Will come back again
Although a little difficult to get around the hotel with a buggy (steps to get to the lift) if was a small price to pay for the large and comfortable room (castle suite), very helpful dn friendly staff and the great view and location.

Great location but basic
As the hotel is on Princess Street close by to Waverley station, you couldn't get a better Edinburgh location. Room was basic with no ironing facilities in the room which most hotels do cater for nowadays.

Nice old hotel -Super Staff all round
Hotel could do with refurb in some areas, but the reception looks much better than last time so it’s a good start. The location is superb, the Castle view awesome, princes street below can be a little noisy all night but you should expect that. The staff in this hotel pull out all the stops for their guests and should be commended. Will be back.
