‘This is a little gem of a hotel, and well worth staying at if you are planning a trip to Edinburgh. The hotel is about a 10 min stroll across North Bridge to the Royal Mile for the shops which lead to the castle and other attractions. We would not hesitate to stay here if we were to visit Edinburgh again.’
