    We were upgraded to an apartment, which was unexpected but very welcome. The staff were welcoming, friendly, and helpful. The breakfast was great value, and the choice was great. The location is 10 mins away from Waverley and the old town.

    This was a great location for a short trip to Edinburgh with parking options subject to availability and not too pricey. The room and bathroom were more spacious than we expected, staff friendly and could not fault the cleanliness.

    The hotel was close to everything we needed such a great location. We booked the car park through a recommendation from the reception staff and were given a discount code for the car park. We were upgraded to a small cottage-style accommodation...
