Great location in the heart of the old town . Minutes walk to Castle , Princes Street Gardens . Big plus is the car park next to the hotel with loft and direct entry to hotel . £15 per day as a hotel guest seems very reasonable .

An expensive trip!
The price for one night was eye wateringly expensive - more than the pensioners annual heating allowance - they wanted half again to check in 2 hours early! I have never before been hassled at 8:30 on Sunday morning to be asked by housekeeping when we were leaving!
