    At the end they ask for 15% optional service fee/tip. Although says it is optional but asking for it directly is making it very pushy.

    Nice and helpful staff! Good hotel

    That it was over the road from the main hotel. Carpet was fraying. Shower wasn’t great. Staff during breakfast had a cold and was snuffling and snorting making me feel quite ill.

    Had the best welcome we’ve ever had to a hotel with a sit down and a coffee and a chat before being shown to our room.

    Very comfortable guest house within walking distance to restaurants and attractions. Breakfast is very good with a lot of choices. Be aware that not all rooms are situated within the main house. Our room was in the building across the road from the main house, so a short walk for breakfast in the morning. Overall though an enjoyable stay and very quiet rooms.

    Fantastic greeting from gentlemen on arrival. Excellent staff throughout Hotel. Breakfast was excellent and the server was great .

    Wasn’t too enamoured with our room which was opposite the main hotel in a basement next to a rather uninviting common-roomesqe communal sitting area.

    The main hotel looked lovely and we had a delicious breakfast. The staff were lovely.

    There was no air conditioning and to open a window at night for cool air you had to open the whole window which is a safety concern. Someone could’ve easily just crawled into a window. I suggest latches that prevent the windows from opening all the way. Also very little explanation about how to operate wall furnace and floor heating. Major complaint a party was booked by one of our rooms and it was VERY loud. Had to complain about the noise level. Should’ve booked a location that wasn’t next to bedrooms.

    Very charming, felt like we were at home, very comfortable. Short walk to bus stop and tram. Highly recommend.

    It was in a unique older building and I liked the quiet location. We like to walk so it was in walking distance for to city center if y don’t mind a 1 mile walk. Otherwise there are buses right out front. Staff were very welcoming.

    I didn't have a room in the main building that I was expecting. I had a room with no view. It was clean and pleasant but as my 1st stay in Edinburgh I would have preferred a room with an outside view.

    Room was nice, I can't say excellent because I was staying in the other building that was a little bit disappoint me. Breakfast was nice and the service as well. The bar was very nice and it's a good spot to spend your afternoon.

    No face washcloths (seems to be common in Europe). Room was TINY. I’d recommend not going with the petite room unless just one person, or a couple traveling very light (carry-ons only).

    Beautiful! Inside and out. Especially loved the restaurant decor and atmosphere. Loved the playlist when we arrived. Jamie was super helpful, as was the girl working at the bar (regrettably didn’t get her name). We’re willing to hold our bags till check in. Had storage for bags unneeded during stay to help with space.
