A really lovely stay
A really lovely stay in a great hotel. The staff were very attentive and courteous. The a la carte breakfast (salmon and eggs) was excellent. The eggs were definitely free range. We would most definitely stay here again.

Pretty great location
The hotel is located in a great place, not far from the start of the Royal Mile (although there might be others that might be more centrally located to the train of bus stations), if you need, but only 5-10 minutes by taxi.

Edinburgh Marriott One Night Review - December
The stay was excellent. Only a night to catch up with a friend and a bit of Christmas shopping before heading home. The staff, bar, breakfast area were all very good. The room was lovely and a good size and very comfortable bed. The ensuite was spotlessly clean and a very good shower. We will come back!
