Great hotel, right in the Center, many dining options and walking distance to places. The hotel restaurant and bar were both great. We had dinner there twice. The only detail is that the hotel does not accept cash, only card (something to keep in mind) I highly recommend it if you are staying in Edinburgh with kids.

Great hotel. The only negative is that the TV is not smart, so you can’t sign in into a streaming network on the tv.

The stay was excellent. The only criticism I have is that the TV in the room was not smart, therefore we could not watch Netflix or other streaming services.

Overall the experience was good. We didn’t really understand their pool rules and they gave our staff a hard time because one of the 3 chaperones stepped out of the pool area even though we explained there were 2 chaperones there for 5 kids! Layout of hotel was nice and walking distance to many places. I wasn’t very impressed with the see through showers though. I guess that’s a thing!
