"The view and location are excellent!! However, the hotel changed the booked apartment without notice. I gave them notice that I need an apartment on the 1st floor and they said yes. But once we were there, the apartment for us was on the 3rd floor. Because I got emails to contact the hotel staff, they offered another room on the 1st floor for the elderly mother of my friend. However, none of the staff members know what happend to the change and was responsible for their mistake. The stone stairs access to apartments are not for the elderly people! I think they should give some notice about that! The location and facilities are very good but their services don't deserve 5 stars at all! " - Anonymous
"excellent venue situated right on the royal mile, two minutes walking distance from train station, service very efficient and friendly. " - kathryn rae
"This apartment is in a really great location in Edinburgh. The front rooms looked over the Royal Mile and the bedroom at the back was quiet for sleeping. I was in apartment 11 - right at the top. I do not know what the other apartments are like - they might be noisier?
The stone stairs to get to the room are steep and would totally not be suitable for anyone with disability problems.
I really enjoyed my stay here - much more than in a hotel.
Having access to the Escape Health Club was a good bonus - as i usually like to go to the gym/have a facial when away. The Escape gym, and Cowshed spa situated within, were both very good. " - Elizabeth Chapman
"We stayed in a lovely 2 bed, self contained apartment which I would thoroughly recommend and stay in again. Brilliant location to all areas of the City. Really friendly and helpful staff, who sorted out a problem with our on-line booking very efficiently. Decorated to a high standard and modern in taste and a very comfy bed! Good to have well equiped kitchen and laundry. Main staircase is an old stone step spiral, maybe a hassle if take children or elderly persons. Certainly keeps you fit! The gym/pool is just around the corner, didn't get chance to check it out this time - but will on our return. " - lindsey johns
