Pleasant stay
Overall we had a lovely stay. The hotel is well positioned. The staff were helpful, it had a great restaurant and bar, and the room was nice. The downside was that the rooms were too hot. There was no way of individually controlling them and when we complained at reception we were given a fan and told to open the windows. Not what you are expecting in Edinburgh in March!
