We liked the fact that it was a small boutique hotel. It was a little far from Edinburgh but having to take only one bus onto the city helped. The room was good and the bathroom was clean, modern and large so two people could use it easily.

Nice cozy room above the pub. It is above a pub so it’s not quiet at night. This didn’t bother us but is worth noting. Otherwise the room was clean and comfortable. Location is good with options for restaurants and grocery within walking distance. Under 10 mins drive to Wallyford train station for 10 min train ride into Edinburgh. Free parking was handy for the car as well

Booked this hotel as my best friend was getting married there and i live out of town so didnt want to spend alot of time and money travelling and getting caught in traffic jams. Hotel room was fabulous, bed was very comfortable and room were spacious. Shower was excellent, especially with there neon bath lights. Had dinner the first night with close friends and it was prefect homemade cooking food and the chicken and leek pie was delicious. Following night was meal from the wedding breakfast absolutely gorgeous especially the cheesecake. Both days had a selection of different breakfast options but i choice the pancakes and blueberries and Brodies coffee on both days. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I'll definitely be back for a stay and if when in town will definitely drop in for some of Brodie's Coffee and cake or catch up with friends over dinner.

The room was a nice size. It had a bit of an odd smell but not too significant. The staff were very friendly and it was easy to re-enter after hours. The bathroom is newly renovated but has no place to put any shampoo/soap.

This was an excellent stay. Everything was just right about it. The rooms are lovely, the staff were very friendly, couldn't do enough for me. Even the poor chap who had to let me out for my VERY early 5.30am start. Will stay there again.
