Room size, Decor, amazing breakfast. Also accomodated a birthday celebration request.

Unfortunately restaurant wasn't open for evening meals & bar food not available every day. A larger wardrobe would be useful.

Die Lage war gut. Man konnte mit dem Bus ganz einfach ins Zentrum fahren und das Auto im Hotel stehen lassen. Frühstück üppig. Das Personal sehr nett. Badezimmer neu.

Altbau: kein Fahrstuhl. Zu teuer für 2 Nächte.

"Beautiful ancient hotel, part of Edinburgh Uni. Clean, spacious."

Clean Ancient building Spacious Good breakfast Very quite 25 min easy walk to the Royal Mile Holyrood park, as close as it can be to the Arthur's Seat.

N/A No elevator (for us not an issue) No A/C - building from the 17th century, that is obvious. Stayed during the second week of June and the weather was great. On-site restaurant Bonnar was closed (advised it would be open again in July 2026)
