When we returned from our day out exploring, our room had not been made up, so we found it dirty, which was disappointing. The room could benefit from secondary glazing as the noise from the main road was noticeable. Despite being somewhat small without a view, being on the mezzanine level offered a view of the castle, which was a nice touch.

The room was not made up at 4 pm when we returned from our exploring, so we returned to a dirty room. It could do with secondary glazing. The room was somewhat small with no view but was on the mezzanine level with a view of the castle and overlooking the main road.

The staff were exceptionally pleasant and helpful, from the young man serving us at breakfast to the lady at the check-in and the concierge gents. They were all a credit to the hotel in providing a friendly and helpful service throughout our stay.

The location was equally welcoming for folks just wanting to read or catch up on emails. Despite the frozen pool and jacuzzi, it's ideal for any trip to Edinburgh, being close to the castle, shops, and museums.

The dining experience was great with a big selection. We particularly enjoyed having a glass of wine and charcuterie in the main day room with a live jazz trio on Friday night. However, the food was okay, but we have had better in terms of quality.
Facilities
The facilities were good overall, but attention should be paid to the frozen pool and jacuzzi. Despite this, the hotel provides a pleasant experience for guests.

My stay at the hotel was absolutely fabulous. The rooms were lovely and well laid out, although there was a bit of noise issue. The service was top-notch, with the staff being efficient and friendly from start to finish. The location was perfect, right at the west end of Princes St, making it easy to explore the city. The dining options were good overall but lacked some variety. The facilities were great, despite a minor hiccup with the temperature of the pool and jacuzzi.

I had a wonderful time at the hotel! The split-level room was perfect for accommodating my Grandfather with all his needs, although the standard of the room was shockingly poor. The view was either a lovely castle or the not-so-appealing street.

Upon arrival, our room was quite a distance from the lift, tucked away near a service door where staff often passed through, but we did enjoy a lovely view of the castle once we craned our necks to see it. It took a while for the room to warm up, despite the chill when we first entered. The check-in was smooth after 3 pm.

Wow, what a great experience at this hotel! From being upgraded to a King Premiere Suite thanks to our Hilton Honors status and the off-season fewer guests, to the exceptional service by the front desk, this stay was fantastic. The room itself was amazing, but a bit of a letdown with a dirty tissue in the corridor throughout our stay. Despite that, the overall experience was top-notch.
