Aside from the ship and the 1919 theme, the beds were incredibly comfy and the staff are such sweethearts. They love telling you about the history of the ship, they make jokes and always seem very cheerful and welcoming!

The location was very convenient. And the room was well appointed, very quiet, and incredibly clean. Even the bed was great (but queen-sized, so too small for couples)! Also breakfast had a wide variety of options and was delicious.

A wonderful hotel with excellent friendly staff. The location, for us, was perfect! A 20-minute walk to the city center. But if you don’t like walking, there’s a bus stop right in front of the hotel. The hotel itself was great, beautifully decorated. We will definitely come back.

When we stayed at your hotel, we were genuinely impressed by the exceptional service we received—particularly from Leah, who I believe was the manager on duty that day. She was absolutely amazing: warm, welcoming, and incredibly helpful. Leah was full of useful information and ensured we signed up for the IHG membership, which we truly appreciated. Even after we checked out, she kindly let us stay in the lounge while we waited for our airport taxi. She went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable, and her professionalism and friendliness really stood out. We were also deeply appreciative of how far both Leah and her team that day gone—literally and figuratively—to provide such a high standard of care. Their efforts did not go unnoticed, and we left feeling genuinely looked after. Thank you so much for a memorable stay! We will be back !

The hotel is perfectly situated and I had a really nice room with a cool window sill where you could sit and enjoy the fantastic view. I also liked the bathroom, which had enough space. The furniture seems old, but I liked it anyway. I slept very well and it alltogether felt like having my own little apartment. The staff was always very friendly and very helpful. I had to arrive late at night and they answered immediately that I need not worry. I can totally recommend this hotel.

Perfect location, ideal for short family stay. The Royal Mile, museums and many more sightseeing spots are reachable on foot. A lot of restaurants nearby to enjoy dinner. The hotel is a must for weekend/long weekend stay due to its location and facilities. Delicious breakfast and 24/7 coffee&tea facilities make the stay even more comfortable.

Historical sites are a must see.

Historical sites are a must see. What I found most enchanting was the soul of the city. Due to its historical heritage and distinct culture you can feel it as you stroll through the city. Of course the Harry Potter theme runs throughout Edinburgh. If you a re afan I would adivse you to join a Harry Potter tour. The historical sites and pubs evening tours are also very interesting. The weather is very important. When it is cold and wet the city may look quite bleak and a little depressing. The story of Greyfriars Bobby is very touching.

Livingston is a quaint, calm neighbourhood.

Livingston is a quaint, calm neighbourhood. Although not easy to access an Uber, there are bus stops if you walk a few minutes, and Livingston North train station is of course a stop for the different rail services. We walked for about 15-20 mins to get to a station. Save the number of taxi operators ahead of your trip, if you're travelling with lots of luggage and want convenient drop offs and pick ups from/to your space in Livingston.
