Summary: Not good value for the price. If The King visited they would probably lose their “Royal” tag. Expensive and broken down. Cracked tiles in the bathroom floor. Towel heater in disrepair. Coffee bar not open in the morning.

Summary: I recently stayed at this hotel and found the experience to be a bit of a mixed bag. On the positive side, the room was very clean and comfortable—exactly what you'd hope for when traveling. The bed was cozy, the space was well-kept, and overall, it provided a quiet and restful environment. However, the service left something to be desired. The team members working the front desk during afternoon check-in, as well as those at the bar and during breakfast, were not particularly warm or welcoming. Interactions felt rushed or indifferent, which was disappointing. That said, I do want to acknowledge the woman working in the morning—she was a bright spot in the experience. Friendly, helpful, and genuinely kind, she stood out from the rest of the staff and helped make the morning more pleasant. Overall, if you're looking for a clean and comfortable place to sleep, this hotel delivers. But if service and hospitality are high on your list, you might find the experience lacking—unless you're lucky enough to cross paths with the morning staff member who truly knows how to make guests feel welcome. Close to train station, attached, lots of great shopping and cafes/restaurants nearby.

Summary: They advertise free parking but they only have 8 spots that are first come. Had to park down the street in a paid lot.

Summary: Stayed there 2 nights. Girl behind the bar was lovely. Otherwise staff did not seem to want to be there. Managers seemed stressed and panicking about stuff. Cleaners wanted ad every time you passed them on the corridor if you were leaving and your room number, I don’t know why because our bed was not made or towels replaced. Hotel is well located but it’s not worth the money.

Summary: Our first room was very spacious and airy with a comfortable bed. The bathroom was spotless and roomy. The second room was much smaller and the bed wasn't as comfortable as the first one. It overlooked a noisy passage way where bottles were emptied and people trundled their suitcases. The hotel in general looked a little tired and in need of an uplift.

Summary: I paid nearly £300 for a one night stay (more than I usually pay in the City of London) because it is right next door to the railway station and we were catching a train to Edinburgh early the following morning. I checked that it had a lift as we were travelling for 3 weeks hiking and camping as well as visiting cities so would have heavy cases to manoeuvre. The most positive word I can use to describe the member of staff who checked us in is ‘disinterested’ and It was only when I asked how to find the lift that he said that the lift was broken and that we should use the stairs. No offer of help was made even though my husband and I are obviously older, I had to ask for it. He said he would bring the bags up at some point. As we were leaving our room 30 minutes later we met him on the landing, he just put the bags down where he was, turned around and went back downstairs without a word. The corridor outside our room was being used as a store for linen bags. When we arrived they were all closed up but by the time we went down for breakfast they had all been opened up for the housekeeping staff to use. The corridor itself was in a very poor state. The room was clean, but very dated and the paintwork in the bathroom definitely needed some work. I’m not sure if health & safety law is the same in Scotland as in England but if it is, the bathroom blind in the bathroom is illegal as it doesn’t have a chain safety clip fitted.

Summary: We selected this property due to its location to the train station. Close to everything we wanted to see and do. The breakfast was wonderful. We had one dinner at the hotel and it was excellent. I would have rated the entire property excellent except the lift wasn’t working and we climbed a lot of stairs with luggage. Other than that - I’d stay again

Summary: Convenient location next to the train station. Room was tidy. Double bed is awfully small for two people, but we made do. Really our only complaint is that the room was hot and hard to get comfortable.
