No tea and coffee making facilities in the room, which in itself is not a problem as you can call reception and they will bring a fresh cup within minutes. however, when reception is closed there is a coffee machine on the landing right outside room 1’s door - convenient but not very quiet when your neighbours are making drinks at 7am on a Sunday morning.

The room (room 1) was large and comfortable, as was the bed. The location was great and an easy walk into the city centre. Dinner in the restaurant was exceptional.

Drawing room maybe had too much furniture. All large pieces because of room size but perhaps too much of it (all elegant tho)

Great living spaces. Huge bathroom and bath. The bed was extremely large and extremely comfortable. Outlook from bedroom window was beautiful, all trees which is amazing for a city centre hotel. Decor was mostly traditional but also eclectic and very tasteful. With easy walking distance of town, close to Playhouse.

Breakfast was not great. The stairs up to the rooms were a challenge particularly when carrying one's luggage . A porter would be an advantage

Breakfast was very ordinary, not much choice or variation, considering this is a fine dining destination. Room and on suite bathroom were spacious and well appointed. A plus factor was the quiet location close to the old city centre.

If I had one bit of feedback it would be perhaps get some better glazing or if that is not possible due to regulations on older buildings, perhaps secondary glazing for the windows of the room(s) at the front as although the road is not excessively busy, noise did travel. I am quite a light sleeper and I forgot to take earplugs but to be fair on the first night the bed was so seductive that I never woke up fully by any noise, I was so comfortable I just went back to sleep quickly. If you sleep like a log then you'll absolutely love it. (If there are rooms at the back I should imagine they are wonderfully peaceful.) I would not let this point stop me from staying again, I'd just try hard to remember my earplugs or go out and buy some! Everything else completely makes up for it. Do not let this put you off.

Good location - walking distance from railway station (not flat) if you're able to or a short trip in a taxi otherwise. Literally next door to Calton Hill and the monuments and a fantastic view on clear day. Round the corner from cafes, pubs, Theatre Royal, cinema and many other things. Easy to get to Princes Street etc. We walked everywhere but I saw many buses going close by the end of the road too when going to & from the hotel. I asked when booking if I could have a room with a bath and although this was not guaranteed I wasn't disappointed. The bathroom was huge with a walk in shower and the most beautiful stand alone bath as well. We stayed for 2 nights and I had a lovely hot bubble bath on each night which is a real treat for me and made the break extra special. There were lovely large white towels, luxurious face cloths and white bathrobes available too (also new slippers in wardrobe too though I didn't use any). The bed was massive and unbelievably comfortable, I didn't really want to get out of it! We had breakfast one morning which was served in an extremely graceful room. If you are planning on having breakfast at the hotel and have any dietary requirements do let them know in advance as they will assist! The first morning we did eat at a lovely café around the corner which had vegetarian and vegan options too. There is a large lounge area you can relax in at the hotel if you want to read or just have some quiet time. Room and bathroom were utterly spotless. View from the room was lovely. There were no hot drinks facilities in the room (there was fresh mineral water daily) but a Nespresso machine was literally 2 steps outside the room with plenty of options available. Fabulous Bluetooth speaker to connect the TV or your phone to as well to enjoy some radio or Spotify if you wished. The staff were all very friendly and very helpful. We didn't need much by way of assistance but when we did they were there.

There really wasn’t anything we didn’t like.

We stayed here for a couple of days, had a really friendly greeting when we arrived, our host was excellent and all of the staff were of the same standard. Our room was stunning with an amazing view and an extremely comfortable bed. We went to the drawing room in the evenings for drinks before going out which was beautiful! It was very comfy with excellent service. As a beautiful old town house, there are lots of steps so be aware of this when booking but we would fully recommend staying there on absolutely every level!

Everything was absolute perfection, from a lovely warm welcome from Katie upon arrival, to the sumptuous breakfast served in a stunning sun-filled room. Our bedroom was beautifully decorated and luxurious, with a gorgeous immaculate bathroom. We loved our stay and will definitely be returning soon!

That there was no tea trays and kettle in the room. Or small fridge. All would be a huge plus. I prefer to use my own teabags, sugar and milk so that was a disappointment to me, but the only downside to my stay. Another customer complained too, so think these should be considered

Beautiful opulent building with gorgeous decor.
