    Breakfast was fantastic, it was so good I spoke to other guests about it. And I loved the artistic impression made as soon as you entered a room, including the lift. I especially loved to wee bird painted on the ceiling in our room.

    The floor could have been moped before we arrived, or while we stayed, twas a little dirty.

    Great location. Hotel was close to many activities and right in downtown Edinburgh

    The property was very expensive for the room received. It was during Tattoo and Fringe, so all properties were more, but we seemed to pay - through Booking.com - one of the highest prices. We were told that booking short term was the most expensive, but through Booking.com it was even more.

    The continental Breakfast was amazing and a great selection to choose from. Staff were excellent. Queen room was comfortable and we enjoyed the air con too. On suite was excellent. Overall I would stay here again if and when we visit Edinburgh, this was for our 16th wedding anniversary.

    Some rooms have no views out Like most Edinburgh hotels it’s expensive

    Property response:

    Dear Greg, Please accept our thanks for this review following your experience at our hotel. We’re delighted you appreciated our distinctive decor and well-appointed rooms, which reflect Edinburgh’s character while offering modern comforts. Our recent refurbishment aimed to preserve historic charm while ensuring practical amenities for guests. However, we regret some aspects didn’t meet expectations. As a converted bank with varied room layouts, views differ across categories. Our pricing reflects the central New Town location and inclusive breakfast, though we understand value perceptions vary. Finally, we’re pleased our prime position near St Andrew Square let you explore Edinburgh’s attractions easily. Many guests find walking to Waverley Station and local museums enhances their stay. We hope to welcome you back in the future. Kindest regards, Karina.MIKALAUSKAITE, Front office Manager

    Location

    dirty bedding and so much dust on and under bed - had we seen at start of stay would have refused room. Room NOT cleaned despite pressing ‘room clean’ button during stay. NEVER worth the money charged

    Property response:

    Dear Anne, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are, of course, disappointed to read that your stay did not meet your expectations. We would like to clarify a few points. You stayed with us for five nights without raising any concerns with our Reception team. Our team is available 24/7, and had we been made aware of any issues, we would have been more than happy to address them immediately or even offer an alternative room. At check-out, when we attempted to discuss your concerns further, you declined to speak with a manager. Regarding cleanliness, we take these matters very seriously, and we are truly sorry that some issues were present in your room. These became apparent only once the bedding was pulled apart, which is why they had not been noticed earlier, but we fully agree they should not have been there in the first place. Please accept our sincere apologies that this aspect of your stay did not meet the high standards we aim to deliver. We also note that you enjoyed a complimentary bottle of Prosecco on arrival as a gesture for your birthday, and we are sorry this did not help to make your stay more memorable. As you will appreciate, rates during the Edinburgh Festival are at a premium across the city, and our prices remain competitive for the season and location. We regret that your experience left you feeling dissatisfied, but we do hope you will allow us the opportunity to restore your confidence in us on a future visit. Best regards, Zoltan Fuzesy , General Manager
