What Travellers Like

  • The hotel is in a great location on the Royal Mile and a 2 min stroll to Princes Street. Checking in was fine and the room had the wow factor. Each room is themed and our room was very spacious with a great view down towards Princess Street. Breakfast was very nice and filled us up for the rest of the day. The bar staff were very friendly but the bar was very smokey (the ban comes in next month anyway).. Read review

  • Okay, so it WAS 56 stairs to the room (it would be more to the top floor) but even two completely out-of-shape Canadians could handle that. Our room was clean and comfortable, and, being the John Logie Baird room, decorated with television equipment. The bar downstairs (also the reception desk) is well-stocked and serves good food, including a breakfast that was comped with the room.. Read review
