“I find the waterfront location in Leith particularly appealing, balancing proximity to Edinburgh's bustle with a calmer, village-like atmosphere and diverse dining options; the individually-designed rooms offer a boutique feel, though some may show their age. With its British-French dining and event spaces, this hotel could be an excellent choice for those seeking character outside the city center.”
