“This Edinburgh hotel provides solid value, especially given its location convenient to the city center. The rooms impress with their spaciousness and many have been updated, while breakfast is a welcome, generous inclusion. I particularly appreciate the quiet, residential setting that still allows easy access to New Town.”
