Reviews and Ratings
This hotel offers a newly refurbished room with a great shower but had a kettle that wasn't working properly. The room had good lighting and modern decor. The service, though recommendable, could have been better with more staff available. The location is convenient within walking distance of various restaurants and right next to the beach. The dining included homemade products, and the facilities were satisfactory.
The hotel is in a superb location, within walking distance of various restaurants and close to the town center. The rooms have just been refurbished and feature excellent bathrooms with great showers and lovely bedding, offering a comfortable stay. The service is commendable, although more staff members could enhance the experience. The dining options are included, with highlights on scrambled eggs for breakfast. Overall, a great value for the price with some minor improvements needed in service staffing.
A cozy hotel with some room for improvement. The rooms were comfortable, but the kettle wasn't working properly. The staff were welcoming, but more members could enhance the service quality. Great location for exploring Edinburgh, though the hotel is situated on a slope. The included dining was satisfactory with a barbecue option available. Good facilities overall.
