Premium bedding, in-room safe, desk, iron/ironing board

"We had such a lovely stay here! The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. We visited over the Easter weekend, so the rates were a bit higher, but it was totally worth it. They even left a chocolate egg and a sweet card for the kids — such a thoughtful touch! The hotel has its own parking area, which felt very secure. It’s £15 per night, but we were happy to pay for the peace of mind. Everything about our stay was great, and I’d definitely love to come back next time I’m in Edinburgh."

"I definitely recommend the hotel. The room was very clean, well looked after, and comfortable. The staff were all great. Shout out to James, Ryan, JR, Emma and everyone whose names I've forgotten. Highly recommend the restaurant. The food was very good. We particularly enjoyed The Carvery. It was a breeze taking the train into Edinburgh, but I wish we had time to explore Dunfermline, it's a beutiful small city."
