Had a lovely time in Edinburgh and although we didn’t spend a lot of time at the hotel its functional and very central and within good walking distance of a lot of the major tourist spots.

It was my nephew’s birthday and it was casually mentioned to Shabana and when we later came back...

We asked for accommodation ahead of time because we had an issue at a previous Premier in,...

Small details are left undealt with in the rooms at times. If not mentioned then its not done due t...
