A great location, with Edinburgh Zoo to the rear and expansive views to the Pentland Hills in front. Parking was a breeze and good public transport into the centre - not far away. Indoors thoughtfully updated. The staff were skilled - professional, courteous and very friendly. We took a Compact room at a reasonable price. It was well designed, spotless, comfortable and quiet. Will definitely return, for longer next time.

2 things they told us had we not booked through Expedia our stay would’ve been $300 cheaper but we did soo we lost out! Very disappointing to say the least!!! They told it’s always cheaper to book through the hotel itself… Also the hotel was dirty. The rooms were very, very small for what we paid. We should’ve gotten much bigger rooms for the price and it said it was a family room!! Plus it should be cleaned. It was old not painted well and the carpet was all stained up!! Disappointed:(
