Beautiful old property just needs a little refresh."

"Comfy, modern and quiet rooms. Clean and updated shower/bathroom. The property is tucked away surrounded by idyllic gardens and picturesque vistas with castle-like buildings nearby. Very convenient bus stop down the street. Top-notch staff are attentive and there's a chic bar area for a night cap."
"I booked this hotel for a trip to Scotland with my adult children without knowing much about the area. Were we ever amazed to arrive and have Edinburgh castle across the way with a view of the castle from our window. Walkable to tons of shops and restaurants. Absolutely wonderful helpful staff. So friendly. Highly recommend this hotel! "
"I love staying at this location in Edinburgh! The staff were very friendly and welcoming, I had a room with a window view of the castle, and was able to enjoy lunch on the roof terrace while I was there. The location is perfect because it is quite easy to walk anywhere I want to go and access food and experiences."
"We walked to hotel from Waverley Rail station was 30 min walk. Get a taxi if got cases and bags. Lovely walk otherwise to Princes street.
Can walk to town centre by side of river through Leith Gardens. Lovely walk.
Hotel staff were quick to book us in.
room was lovely, big, clean, tea coffee milk biscuits. Shower, hair and soap in bathroom.
Shower curtain was spotlessly clean. Lovely big soft towels.
We were overlooking the river which was nice.
We had a very pretty lounge next to our room.
Staff were very friendly and on hand for any questions or replenishment of room stuff. Didn’t have breakfast so cannot comment on that but smelt lovely when walking through main lobby.
Would recommend this hotel, if able to walk okay but if unsteady on feet you would need to get a taxi ( plenty about) as hotel is down a very steep curvy road from main road to hotel at side of river. "
