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 .

Location is excellent for touring old city. Disappointed with front desk taking an hour to register us in a proper room. Two of three elevators were out of service for our stay.

Perfect location in Edinburgh
Brilliant location, super modern hotel, lovely pool, great breakfast. Only downside was two of the 3 lifts not working at all during our stay. And the one lift there is is very small.

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!
