The service was second to none. And this was on top of great rooms, an excellent restaurant and a very good bar.

We had a super weekend staying in this hotel. When we arrived we were greeted by a lovely receptionist who made us feel most welcome.

Christine, Coleraine.

Excellent customer service, great location and terrific restaurant. Best breakfast in Edinburgh that I’ve had in a hotel. Would recommend highly!

This is a pleasant and comfortable hotel in a good location, and the staff on reception were lovely! We were allowed to check in immediately to make use of the free WiFi and desk in our room. Our gratitude knew no bounds!

Harry, United Kingdom

The real difference for me is the staff. Every person you speak to is helpful, enthusiastic and interested in you and your stay. Couldn’t recommend this enough!

James, Manchester.

When we walked into the room it was absolutely lovely. My partner had arranged a couple of surprises that the hotel staff had delivered on and I was really chuffed with everything!

Lesley-Anne, London.

The staff could have their own sitcom! So enjoyable, funny, full of helpful hints and seemed genuinely fond of their city. Really, I could write a book!

Melinda, United States.

The hotel was fantastic and the staff couldn’t do enough for us, will definitely visit again!

Sarah, Leeds.

Thoroughly enjoyed our two-night stay in this lovely hotel. A short walk from the train station and central to the shops. We were well impressed with the room, bed was comfortable and a good size. There was room to move about and enough space to put your clothes.
