The hotel is in a great location, close to the castle. You can see it when you walk out the door. The price/performance ratio is also very high. You can stay in this hotel for less than 2,000 yuan. There is a very authentic Sichuan restaurant on the right when you walk out of the hotel. It is called Shuxiangmendi and Juejuezi. I ate there for two days. The proprietress is also very nice.

Great location for our trip to celebrate Hogmanay. You can’t get a better location for the festivities for the Princess street party. Traveling with a baby, they already had the cot in the room before we had arrived which was great. The staff were super kind and attentive at concierge and reception. Breakfast had a good selection if you a hot Scottish breakfast. Only downside was the parking which was a 5 min drive away ( we weren’t packing light!) Overall, solid experience

Everything was overall very good. The location was exceptional. The rooms were so handy and practical, there was a quite functional and almost fully equipped kitchen and there was even a washing machine. I was planning to have breakfast outside - in a coffee shop or bakery, but i changed my plans to have my breakfast in the room sine the room was like studio and had given me a cosy feeling in the middle of the city center. The only downfall was that instead of keycards, they gave me a pincode (like numeric password) to open the doors and the codes were hand written by receptions and handed to customers just like that. This seemed to me not very safe while it may sound somehow practical to some other people in other ways. Maybe i need to get used to it if this method is going to be applied everywhere in the future, who knows.

Check in at the front desk. Since we arrived in the morning, we thought we couldn't check in yet. Unexpectedly, we were given a room, which was pretty good. However, what happened later affected our good reviews. The room card I was given couldn't be opened. I went back to the front desk to set it up, and when I went back to the room, the door was open, but it turned out that it was not the room type I booked. I booked a room with a king-size bed and a sofa bed, but I was given a room with only a king-size bed. So I went back to the front desk... The front desk said that the system of Ctrip and their hotel was different, so they couldn't be sure that I booked a room with a sofa bed. I showed them the confirmation letter again and asked them to find the manager for me. Let us use the current room first. So we went out to play and planned to come back later. At night, there was still no room, and the manager asked me to show the confirmation letter again. Then he said that the sanitation was still being cleaned, and it was expected to be more than an hour before I could get the room, and he would call the current room. As a result, after more than an hour, I was finally given the room I wanted. Hahaha, it was quite a hassle.

The hotel pillows had mold spots when turned over... The check-in time was 3 o'clock but they said it was not cleaned. I waited for another 40 minutes and asked but it was still not cleaned. In the end, I could only be given a cleaned room but without a view. No one took the initiative to help with the luggage. I called the front desk three times before it got through... Although I was later given a new room, the overall experience was still not good.

Apartment was very spacious and clean. Our bed was okay although the pillows could be better. We had a great time preparing our dinners here because many cooking tools are provided. There are two washing tablets for our three-night stay so we did have to get our own at a Sainsbury’s nearby since we did have more clothes to wash. The washer worked fine but the dryer somehow didn’t. We tried to use it three times but the clothes were still wet in the end. We had to hang dry our clothes in the closet after spinning them at a higher RPM, which was fine because they got all dry by the next morning. There’s also an app for the hotel that you can download where you can request services from the front desk, which I thought was a nice touch. Staff was generally friendly and the location of the apartment was close to several restaurants and a grocery store, and it’s not too far from the train station. I’d definitely consider staying here if I ever visit Edinburgh again.

The price-performance ratio is not bad, but it is a bit old, but the service is top-notch! When those Edinburgh voco hotels are selling for 1700, I will not hesitate to spend 2100 to stay at the Waldorf Astoria. What kind of bicycle do you need for 2100? This is the Waldorf Astoria hahaha

AAnonymous UserPros: The location of the hotel is good. This is a big hotel with many rooms. The terrace is super nice. shortcoming: 1- But my room is separated from the noise of huge equipment, I don't know what it is, it is much more noisy than the refrigerator. 2- The corridors and restaurants don't turn on the heating very much, it's very cold. 3- The bed is relatively soft 4- But there is no parking space for taxis in front Overall: 4 points The price-performance ratio of more than 2,000 is not very high, but the level of the entire British hotel is incomparable with that of Asia, and this hotel cannot be blamed.

RRosiness’sThe hotel is two small villas facing each other on the street, with a small outdoor garden (drinking, afternoon tea) There is no front desk, but the service staff is very friendly and provides welcome tea and cookies. The rooms are generally not big, but the facilities inside are very exquisite. The sunlight shining in in the afternoon is beautiful. The toiletries are whiskey-scented, very nice and high-end. The whole building smells delicious Very good service staff Disadvantages: 1. There is no elevator, but the building is not high, the highest is only the third floor. 2. The location is average. It takes nearly half an hour to walk from the city center. Taking an Uber costs about 4-5 pounds. The advantage is that there is a bus at the door.
