The location nd space was amazing…but it was the stellar staff that get the top notch accolades. They were all so friendly and helpful from the minute we arrived to the time we left. And not just doing little things, but things rarely done now. They happened to ask about our plans for the day and when they heard we had a full day travel trip they made us a goodie bag with treats and apples. I found everything about this stay to be wonderful and look forward to a return!

What a wonderful hotel. It is beautiful on a wonderful street. My room was lovely. Comfy bed, fantastic bathroom with a luxurious soaking tub and a rainfall shower. The best part is the staff. Very attentive and kind. Delicious room service -- I love room service and it's becoming more and more rare. It's an historic building but everything is redone and in good working order.

Excellent City Escape

We had an amazing greeting upon arrival. No request was too much trouble. The food, drinks, and service were all first class. Spending New Year’s Eve in the comfort of the Wallace lounge looking over Edinburgh castle was a highlight. The only slight dampener was being given an accessible room for our first night instead of the room we selected via website. That said, we were moved the next day and all was well.

I regret to inform you that I encountered a considerable issue during my recent stay, which the staff was unable to promptly resolve or provide satisfactory alternatives for. Despite my reservation being made several months in advance (on August 16, 2025), the room assigned to me (#504) was located adjacent to a building currently undergoing construction or renovation. Over the course of my five-night stay, I was repeatedly awakened each morning by the noise emanating from the roof repairs. I brought this matter to the attention of the hotel staff after the second night and inquired about the possibility of relocating to a room away from the construction site, or at least on the opposite side of the hallway. I was informed that the hotel’s occupancy was approximately 65-67%. While the staff was responsive and attentive, the only solution offered was a room change for the final night of my stay, which I ultimately declined, as well as a complimentary glass of champagne, should I have chosen to dine at the hotel, which I also declined. Had I been aware of the potential disturbance to my rest, I would have chosen alternative accommodations.
