    This place is in a great location near a lively square with many pubs, and the rooms are usually clean with a view of a castle, plus there's an on-site restaurant.

    The family queen room was recently decorated and had a balcony, a safe box, and an iron. The pool area was great and the location was marvelous and brilliant. The staff was friendly and helpful. The hotel is just next door to other restaurants, Edinburgh Castle, Edinburgh hop on hop off bus tour, recreation area, and the bustling shopping district of Princes Street. It is also walking distance from a historic fortress.
