“This adults-only hotel sits centrally, a short distance from Edinburgh Castle and the National Museum of Scotland; on-site diversions extend to billiards and a fitness center, more than one expects. A complimentary buffet breakfast, complete with varied dietary options, makes mornings easy. The location is prime, though the overall experience seems inconsistent based on reports.”

The location proved very convenient, only a short walk to the main attractions (about 15 minutes!). The breakfast options were good, and tables were readily available. I really liked that the coffee was excellent.
My room wasn't cleaned during my entire stay.

breakfast had lots of choice, but not many gluten free options. gluten free bread was provided upon request to the staff, a very nice detail. coffee and tea were available 24/7.
