Easy access to the city

Plenty of Parking and ideal to leave the car and use the bus service into the city centre. The bus stop is right outside. Friendly service and lovely view of the castle

An average hotel

Staff were very friendly but the hotel is in need of a refurbishment. We had a small room at the back overlooking a car park but other rooms were much bigger/nicer. A good option for a budget hotel slightly outside of the tourist attractions.

Attended a wedding at this hotel back in the early 2000, it was fantastic back then however it now is in need of some TLC.
Jeff, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Lovely hotel in a nice area. Ideal for a short break, pubs in walking distance and close enough for events at Murrayfield. Comfy beds with good facilities, would definitely stay again.

Cosy, comfortable, pleasant

Lovely room with view over park. Bed was comfortable and room was clean. Breakfast was good - plenty of choice. Dinner was excellent and staff were friendly and helpful. Hotel is looking a bit tired and could do with a bit of a freshen up but otherwise everything was fine. Good transport links into Edinburgh and handy for the bypass if travelling further afield. Would definitely come back again.

Nice hotel in nice area

Lovely hotel but very tired . Staff are very welcoming, friendly and professional. The views from the hotel. Though the view from our room was not but I suppose someone had to stay in it. There were a few issues with the room which I informed the reception staff on checkout and welcomed the points I noted . The dining room furniture, in particular the dining chairs need replacing . We liked the area and we walked into Edinburgh which is a good 50mins. We caught the night bus home once which took about 15mins .

Classy older hotel with lots of character.

Really nice hotel with a lot of character. Nice large room with a large en-suite. Good breakfast ( although i never did get any eggs) it was always empty and told they were coming. Nice bar with good selection of draught beer. Nice outdoor seating areas.Has local bus stop right at hotel to get into town center. Being an older hotel there is no elevator and has quite a few stairs to climb.Overall still worth staying to get the location and helpful staff.

8/10 Very good

Slow check in where I had to phone the hotel before reception staff appeared - call bells on desk obviously havent worked for years and could be replaced. Room is spacious & clean, dated. The hotel used to be one of the local top hotels in the city and is showing its age - green stair carpet badly needs replaced as each step is worn
