The hotel is in a perfect location, near the canal and close to frequent buses, offering easy access to everything Edinburgh has to offer. The rooms are cozy and comfortable, but the absence of brown bread may be disappointing for some. The service is exceptional, with attentive housekeeping. The dining experience includes delightful salmon fish cakes but lacks the availability of brown bread. Overall, a great value for the price.
