This is a great hotel, close to all the touristy parts of Edinburgh. The rooms are lovely, modern, clean and big making a stay easy. I also really appreciated that they offer to bring you fresh milk for free to your room for your tea/coffee plus there is a water filter tap in the hallway.

Filtered water station on each floor with carafes - instead of bottles 🙌 No air conditioning in the rooms. The windows were open & a rotating fan was on the desk....
