“This hotel strikes me as a gem, neatly sidestepping the bustle of Princes Street while keeping Edinburgh's best within easy reach. I particularly appreciate the thoughtful touches-those complimentary comforts on arrival and the building's architectural bones hinting at stories from another era. The attentive staff seems genuinely invested in the experience, setting this place apart.”
