    I had an amazing stay at this luxurious 4-star hotel! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The rooms were spacious, quiet, and beautifully decorated in a perfect Victorian style. The hotel's location was ideal, as it was near the city center but still in a quiet area. The breakfast spread was absolutely delicious, with a variety of options to choose from, including smoked fish, fresh fruit, and mouthwatering cakes. I also appreciated the amenities provided in the room, such as ironing facilities, tea and coffee making facilities, and a comfortable sitting area. The hotel's attention to detail and top-notch service truly enhanced my comfort and overall experience.

    I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a luxurious and comfortable stay.

    We had a good stay at a charming B&B in a great location. The hosts were friendly and accommodating, making us feel right at home. The Scottish breakfast was delicious, especially the haggis. The walk to the city center was lovely, and we discovered a fantastic restaurant nearby. we highly recommend this hotel for a cozy and cute stay in Edinburgh.

    We had a great stay at this hotel. It was very close to the city center and easily connected with public transport. The hotel facilities were excellent, and the breakfast was delicious. The staff were friendly and helpful. It was also near the university where we were attending graduate school, very convenient. We didn't have to worry about parking because it was very close to the city center and we didn't need to pay for parking. it was a fantastic experience.

    It was all superb.

    We found a charming Victorian house in a quiet neighborhood, just a short walk from the bustling city center. The location was perfect, with a bus stop nearby and excellent transport connections. The room was comfortable and clean, with a stunning view of Arthur's Seat. The hosts were incredibly friendly and accommodating, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The breakfast was delicious, with plenty of options including vegetarian and vegan choices. We were also thrilled to find fruit and chocolates replenished daily in our room, a lovely extra touch.

    The initial access to the property was a bit tricky, as it is located on a busy main road.
