“Superb”

The room was clean, tidy and spacious. The breakfast is excellent, with enough food for everyone's taste. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful.

“Lovely location”
17 Jun 2025
Staff very friendly and helpful. Lovely location, quiet, nice leafy area right under Arthur's Seat, walkable into town and private car park. Spotlessly clean, very comfy bed, coffee machine was a bonus and quality hospitality tray. Great to have a restaurant on site too and had a very tasty supper there when we were too tired to go out.

“Very good”

Very quiet and calm area, with beautiful surroundings. Bus station very close by, easy to get around town. Staff was very kind and welcoming. Bed is super comfortable and big. Breakfast great, with plenty options. We had dinner at the restaurant one night and were amazed how tasty the food was!
