Great location in Old Town. The staff was very welcoming and helpful. Our room was spotless. We had the townhouse room, which is separate from the rest of the hotel, off of Advocate’s Close. Fantastic room, but the voices from the Close are a bit amplified - probably not the best room for light sleepers.

A wonderful experience.

An amazing location on the Royal Mile right across the street from St. Giles Cathedral. Our room was not in the main building, but was down a Close, through a gate and up 2 flights of stairs. No elevator. The staff carried our bags up to and from the room, so no problem there. Very comfortable in all aspects. A washing/dryer combination machine was a big help, although cycle took over 4 hours. We didn't use the kitchen, but it was nice to have. Included breakfast choices were excellent as was the food. All of the staff were friendly and extremely helpful when needed. When we next visit Edinburgh, we will stay there again.

The hotel location was amazing. Great staff and amazing check in! Cannot recall his name but he was great. The restaurant however wa aa bit of a disappointment. The food was not good at all and I even told the waiter the steaks were not good as very rough and I didn’t even eat mine. Nothing changed. No credit or offer for something else.

Wonderful stay!

The service was great, very friendly staff. Our room (a 1 bedroom apartment) was lovely. Everything was clean and nice. The linens were a really nice quality. The bed was very comfortable. We were so happy with our stay here. The location is also very good.

Great Old Town Option

Great location, and generally a great hotel. The cleaning/maid was awful and skipped my room multiple times. Was also hard to get a hold of the front desk, they were not there for a while one night when i was trying to buy a snack, and you don't have a phone in your room. The light switches are very annoying also, but overall a decent value. The front desk staff was great when you did get their attention.

We liked this hotel very much. It was comfortable and had a great location in the center of a lot of attractions in Old town. It was convenient to shop then drop your purchases in the room and not have to carry them around. The two tours we took met right outside the hotel. Could go back to our room to use the toilet and never had to use the public toilets. Breakfast was very good with lots of options. The recommended parking was ½ mile away and up hill on arrival, we were fine but it could be challenging for some I suspect. Although we did see one family pull their car up to unload luggage then go park their car. It was a fantastic stay and would recommend this location/hotel.

We enjoyed the property and the surrounding areas immensely. You cannot put a price on the historical nature of the building. That, however, was a bit of a curse as the bedroom’s windows faced the Close and people were loud and kept us up all night. The windows need more soundproofing. We were also disappointed that the breakfast did not contain an Asian dish for breakfast given how many Asian and South Asian guests were staying at the hotel. Only other complaint is we wished the bathroom power switches were broken up so you could turn on the lights in the toilet area without needing to fire up the whole system in the middle of the night.

Amazing location tucked right in the middle of the Royal Mile! Brenda at the front desk was so sweet & helpful. The 2 bedroom apartment is in an older building, but the hotel did a great job renovating it. The common area is large & spacious. It overlooks the Edinburgh train station & Scott Monument. Unfortunately, there is no air conditioning in this unit and it was kind of loud sleeping with the windows open. I didn’t realize until the day we checked out that there are black out pull down shades in the primary bedroom with en-suite bathroom. If you are looking to book, please note that in the middle of our stay, the hotel changed from Cheval to Marriott. Also, if you’d like to eat at the very trendy & popular restaurant next door, Devil’s Advocate, make reservations WAY in advance.
