“This establishment's placement directly on the Royal Mile is its undeniable strength, placing one at the heart of Edinburgh's historic core with effortless access to key attractions. The rooms present a comfortable, quiet retreat, a welcome contrast to the bustling thoroughfare, and the self check-in process, though perhaps novel for some, is clearly outlined and straightforward. A noteworthy quirk is the ascent to the rooms, a charming, albeit significant, climb that becomes part of the experience.”
