The location and style of the hotel is fab, loved all the fixtures and fittings of the room and the kids loved the bunk beds! The only negative is that the bed was incredibly uncomfortable, so soft!!! And the pillows were really small and soft too… everything else was great, the staff were lovely

Excellent location in the old town. Staff was very attentive and friendly. We had the "family room" and it was great. Housekeeping was very good. Bed was comfortable. It is a bit noisy but that is to be expected during The Fringe and The Military Tattoo. We will definitely stay here again.

We loved our stay! Family room was perfect for two adults and two kids. Breakfast was excellent and included, and location was perfect to explore the city. Hotel design was very cool and room was beautiful and comfortable.
