Katherine, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful setting and friendly staff. We didn’t try the food but it looked delicious. Direct route on the bus into town center, very handy - would be a great place to stay for any rugby at Murryfield (just down the road a short trip on the local bus)
Richard, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

One of the best hotels we stayed at in Scotland. If I ever go back to Edinburgh, I would put this hotel at the top of my list.

James, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Annorlunda o mysigt boende.

Det var trevligt på på ett så litet boende. Var en bit in till Edinburgh men vi har varit där så mycket så det var inte det viktigaste för oss denna gång. Personalen var trevlig. Nära trafikerad väg, men bra isolering när man stängde.
Helene, 1-night trip

Richard, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

An overnight stay for an early morning check in at Edinburgh Airport with airport bus stop a 5 minute walk away. Staff very nice. Had an issue with bathroom door but taken on board by staff and rectified very quickly. Would stay again.
Diane, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

They were very accommodating and could see how tired I was and the nice young man from behind the bar carried my bag for me up to the room. The room was amazing. It was beautifully clean and they really thought of everything. I had team and a hot shower before bed and after going down for an amazing burger and a pint. The atmosphere and decor was so well done and comforting.

Very nice, comfortable, and clean. Rooms located above the pub. Only issue was the room entrance was outside and required climbing several stairs. Persons with limited mobility would find it challenging.
