Victoria was really nice and helpful. She carried our suitcase up in her arms to the 2nd floor as if it wasn't there. I have arthritis and joint problems.
Tea bags were not replenished daily. The cups were too small for my liking. A mug would have been better .I drink a lot of tea.

Central (ish) location
This is not a boutique hotel. This is a budget hotel calling itself a boutique hotel to charge ridiculous prices for their rooms. The room was tiny and barely fits the bed. Constant noise all night, including banging and shouting in the corridor right outside out room at half three in the morning, completely unacceptable for a place that charges over £200 a night. The bare minimum expected from a hotel is to get a night's sleep! Spent the entire holiday shattered due to no sleep with staff at the hotel completely unconcerned about how your stay is. They were literally not interested at all in whether we were happy or not. Probably the worst nights sleep we've ever had staying away and overcharged for the privileged. We stay away most weeks, and for the money they charge, we're usually in a large suite with attentive staff. My advice would be don't waste your money on what is nothing more than a budget city hotel with hiked up prices.

Excellent location staff very polite very clean nice added extras coffe machine and wine
Noise in the bedroom a constant low humming noise all night ,despite us being on the third floor we were at the back of the hotel we could hear the revellers leaving the bar throu out the evening.Maybe treble glazing would fix the noise from outside

A bath with a shower, usually nowadays only a shower. Straighteners as well as a hairdryer!! Whoop, whoop! Plenty of coffee for the machine and fresh milk on a jug instead of UHT portion milk. Very clean and a very comfy bed. The staff were friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Great location too. Although we didn't eat in the restaurant it looked fabulous. I will look at booking again on my next visit to Edinburgh. Thank you for providing a great little gem!

The hotel is in a great location with easy access to everything in central Edinburgh. Although it's in the city centre we found the bedroom quiet and had no issues with outside noise. The room was stylishly decorated with excellent facilities and the bed was comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the communication prior to our arrival was quiet and efficient.
The brunch service was perhaps a little inattentive but this is being picky (the food was excellent) . . . but the following morning breaking was very fast and we were really pleased with the vegetarian option.

Very nice breakfast
Room was very hot at night, leading to us opening windows in the middle of the night.

Staff were friendly and it was a lovely room! Great decor and toiletries! Really central and easy to get to. Would definitely stay again!
Would have loved an earlier check in option although great we could drop our bags and they were put in our room for our check in time.
