Wonderful

The hotel was in a good location. Quiet lication. Good parking. Staff very polite and service was good for diner. The Food was was less great. Breakfast was a buffet. Cold bacon, cold sausage and cold beans. No temperaturecontrol at all. Very disappointing. Hard fried eggs that had not been refreshed. Diner the night before was very ordinary curry from a microwave, again not heated properly. Shame the food let the hotel down as i would have used the hotel again.
Bathroom is awful. Glass door, size lack of shower curtain, lack of water pressure. Carpet stains in room. Lobby area was cold as doors frequently open. Dining was very good and staff excellent!
The room was very clean with a spacious bathroom, with complimentary shampoo, conditioner and shower gel.
Had air conditioning which warmed the room very well and cooled it down when needed.
The mattress was very deep and comfortable, with a good quailty mattress topper and bedding.
The only thing that was disappointing was the tv. This only had basic channels and was very small in comparison to the size of the room. I would have thought with it being a 4 star hotel it would have had a smart tv so you could watch thing's like Netflix, itv x, I player. The only app available was you tube.
Nice hotel.
Bit of a journey into town but if you rent a car or drive no problem. About 20-30mins.
Hotel was nice, food was good. (Breakfast is worth the extra 10£ per night)
Overall would recommend.
The place was very clean and comfortable. Gym, Pool and Spa facilities were not available.
Not sure how the food was, as didn't tried any but the breakfast was good. Very limited vegetarian options.
A nice hotel with an easy bus ride into Edinburgh which saved me from the effort of driving and parking in the city itself. We had one dinner and one breakfast in the hotel. Food was adequate but not particularly inspiring. The room was clean and comfortable. Good value and location for visiting the city.
The receptionist Laura and Therese were very helpful and friendly. The only thing i didn't like was the big pillows crammed into small pillowcases. I had to take them out of the cases as otherwise I would've thought that I was sleeping on a brick. I told the Manager about it. But nothing was done.
