Hotel is beautiful and in a great location if you want to do the Royal Mile in Edinburgh. This area is quite touristy, not the fault of the hotel, so probably not for me next time. I’d definitely recommend though!

We were greeted with such warmth. And a Prosecco! Miraculously our room was ready very early. We arrived from an overnight flight, so this was perfect.

The restaurant service was very bad however. I know they like to let people linger and enjoy but that normally comes after the meal not before you order.
