Great room in awesome location. We were able to walk to the castle, do th royal mile down to the palace and then walk up Carlton hill in a great day out, then walk back to our room from there and have a great meal and a Guinness at the Irish pub next door.

Best location ever, but there's no lift to the 3rd floor, that means you have to carry all your luggage through the stairs.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff was great, as was the location. Since the elevator only went to the first floor, taking the stairs to the upper floors with luggage was difficult, and would be very difficult for older, handicapped, or for people that are not that strong. Also, the shower never got hot. That was disappointing since my room stayed on the cooler side since you couldn’t set the thermostat past a certain degree.

Staff was outstanding, very helpful with booking cabs as needed, responsive to requests. Room was spacious enough for 3, bathroom clean and more than adequate, also spacious. Only complaint is the lack of seating beyond one desk chair and the beds.
