Great stay in Edinburgh

Lovely small boutique hotel on a quiet street in Edinburgh. A little bit tough to maneuver the stairs if you're an older person but we managed. The large room that we were in was absolutely gorgeous. The staff were very helpful with any questions we had about the area. Overall a very positive experience.

Pleasant Stay:

Two night stay, reception staff were very courteous and welcoming and very helpful with queries during our stay, The room was spacious, clean and tidy. The bed was excellent. Cannot comment on any other facilities or services as didn't avail of them. Walking distance to Castle and Playhouse a leisurely 30 mins. There are some really nice restaurants close to the hotel. Excellent value for money for a two night stay in Edinburgh
