fair experience
free water mini bar bathroom layout room cleaning
the location was good. the design of the rooms was thoughtful and modern. i liked the availability of free water. the mini bar options seemed reasonable to me.
my room was not cleaned one day. the bathroom layout felt odd, since the shower and sink were close to the entrance. it affected my stay.

Excellent Stay!
touchscreen controls comfy bed quiet area
My room had touchscreen controls for lights and door service. Made things simple. A comfy bed and sitting area with a table added to the room. The hotel is near the Royal Mile and Victoria Street. I enjoyed the lively bar and quiet sitting areas.
I found the parking situation a bit ambiguous, I think it needs to be clearer.

I appreciated the room's modern features. The toilet and shower are in separate rooms. This ADDS privacy. The well-stocked mini bar had great snacks. The balcony views were AMAZING.

amazing package styled space castle view
the staff delivered an amazing arrival package to celebrate my son's high school graduation. the dressing area and vanity space were very handy and beautifully styled. the roof top terrace offers a lovely view of the castle, a pleasant spot for reading.
the bar was quite expensive compared to others in town, disappointing.

Romantic Hotel Memories
beautiful hotel spacious room kind staff
The hotel is beautiful and detailed. Our Chamber King Balcony room was spacious. It also included all things we needed. Breakfast included a buffet and freshly prepared dishes. I also liked the on-site restaurants. The bar was beautiful too. It was good for enjoying a cocktail. The staff are very kind and helpful. They also.
The room felt cold. A strong window draught made curtains blow. Assistance was promised, but nobody came. Nightclubs are nearby, so it was very noisy.

The hotel is positioned near nightlife options. Nightclubs are easy to access. This convenience is balanced by potential noise. These noises are particularly during the late hours.
