    The breakfast was sensational with champagne 4, all the food was brilliant. The room I booked was kept very clean and available with comfortable bed, bathroom fan, a nice view of the park. The location of the hotel was marvellous and easy - not too far from Grassmarket. Actually everything was good, my next choice again in Edinburgh.

    Posizione eccellente, vicino al centro e al mare. Camera spaziosa, comoda e pulita. Vista mozzafiato dal balcone. Comunicazione facile e cortesia del personale. Possibilita di lasciare i bagagli prima e dopo il check-in

    Niente da criticare.

    cozy room
    good breakfast
    weak shower
    low pressure

    The staff were friendly. The cozy room featured a fantastic park view and a good breakfast with a variety of options that exceeded my expectations.

    the shower pressure was quite weak.

    fine view
    captivating ambiance
    disorganized check-in

    great experience but some room for improvement

    The view from our room was fine, overlooking a beautiful park. The restaurant's ambiance was captivating, and our dinner there was superb.

    The check-in process felt a bit disorganized.
