“My stay was defined by the quietude of the neighbourhood, surprisingly so given its proximity to the Royal Mile and key attractions. The room itself felt thoughtfully designed, a comfortable and functional space with a particularly pleasing bed, and the staff consistently showed genuine helpfulness.”
