    Great Location 10-15 min walk to center. Lovely food, great staff, clean and stylish rooms. Definitely felt like a little hotspot in Edinburgh. Saturday music was on until 12-1am but part and parcel of the place so never bothered us.

    Amazing and notably comfortable beds. Glass water bottles in the room and excellent gluten free dining options.
