"Definitely value for money, perfect location and wonderful views"

8.0

Location, my room overlooked the water and glorious bridges. The room was 2 floors above the pub, couldn’t hear a peep from the room. The owner allowed me to park on the car park at the rear, which saved a lot of messing about with parking machines.

The room was quite hot in the night, even during the stay in February as the room radiator was always on. The sash window fully open made it better, and with a lively sound of the waves right outside.

"Lovely little room with a gorgeous view. Unreal for the price - would highly recommend."

9.0

Nice little room and lovely toilet room opposite.

I couldn’t get onto the internet but I didn’t go to ask so this is something that they could probably have helped with. The network on the info sheet didn’t appear when I searched.

"Friendly hotel in friendly town"

8.0

Friendly owners and staff and a nice bar with good wi-fi. The room was a decent size, clean and the twin beds a decent size too. Bathroom was clean if a little quirky. The ceiling was a little low at one end of the bath - but no real problems. I slept as well as I've done at a hotel for a long time. The location was great for several good restaurants and made getting around Queensferry easy.

A little noisy later on at night. I always travel with ear plugs and it proved to be no problem at all. A shame that the food service ended early in the evening, but given the choices in Queensferry that was probably a decent commercial decision.

"Es war ok. Der Preis in diesem Zeitraum (viel los in Edinburgh) ok. Sonst wäre es zu teuer."

6.0

Die Lage, eher ruhig was wir genossen haben und doch war man relativ rasch im Zentrum von Edinburgh.

Der Teppich im Schlafzimmer auch der Boden im Badzimmer war nicht sauber. Keine Dusche nur Badewanne.

"Pleasant stay in my old neighbourhood"

9.0

Pleasant stay visiting my old neighbourhood. Friendly staff. Only small thing is the bathroom, I am tall and could not stand up in the shower and no hand grabs to get out of the bath. Would recommend.

The bathroom, small for a tall person.

It was a comfortable bed and nice surroundings, the staff were excellent, Louise went above and beyond getting me a taxi at short notice and showing me around the pub , plus explaining events that were taking place early New Years Day .👍🏻😃

Maybe a net curtain in the bathroom
