I have been here a number of times with work for meetings, events and the like but also managed to have a stay recently too! Yay for work!

The hotel is lovely and very modern with cool chairs and elegant decor through out. The staff are incredibly professional and really friendly too. Even when you go back to the cloakroom ten times for things you have forgotten!

We stayed for one night here and were given and upgrade to a beautiful room with a view of Edinburgh Castle.

It was sheer luxury with a huge bed and comfortable pillows. The room had an en suite bath and shower and dressing gowns and slippers were provided. Everything was spotlessly clean and all toiletries were provided. The room had a large TV, hair dryer, tea and coffee and everything you would expect from a hotel of this class.

The room rate included the use of the swimming pool and all spa facilities were extra. The pool was large and warm with great changing rooms - but you can go there from your room in your dressing gown.

Breakfast was amazing. Lots of choice and very well cooked despite it being a buffet, the eggs were still good. There was plenty of choice and a lovely restaurant overlooking Festival Square seems a good choice for sampling a cocktail from the menu next time I am passing.
