Excellent location in the middle of the city for a reasonable price. Close by to everything we wanted to see and do - right on the edge of the castle and a short walks from Arthur's Seat. Staff were polite and helpful from beginning to end....

Modern and clean room. I love the bathroom, far more better than the one in my house. And I love how they fold towels into animals. Cute
