Summary: The room was excellent, compact but well designed and spotless. Twice daily cleaning/turn down service andreplenishment of bottled water , coffee etc was a real bonus. The hotel is superbly situated in Edinburgh and has really excellent facilities in terms of bars, restaurants and the library. Staff were top quality and so helpful.
