The location was great and amazing, in the old city centre of Edinburgh and the interior design was nice. Also, North Shore was 3 km away from the hotel.
Even though we agreed to pay gbp 7 per 24 hours to access the net, internet connection was weak.

Abbiamo apprezzato molto la pulizia del nostro alloggio e la cura delle strutture dell'hotel. Inoltre, il parcheggio comodo e il trasporto agevole hanno reso il nostro soggiorno ancora piu piacevole. La posizione vicina alla spiaggia ci ha permesso di godere al massimo del mare e del relax, immersi in un bellissimo giardino. Anche lo staff e stato molto gentile e disponibile.
Niente, tutto è stato fantastico.
Siamo rimasti davvero soddisfatti del nostro soggiorno in questa splendida struttura.
