We stayed in the mini-georgian suite this month and had to say that it was a lovely wee treat. The staff are superb - very well trained, knowledgeable, polite and helpful. Our room had a romantic gas fireplace, complete with flat screen TV, DVD player and fully-loaded i-Pod. I was also delighted to discover that the room had GHD straightening irons as I had forgotten to pack mine. The bathroom was huge with a lovely powerful shower and luxurious White Company toiletries. Our bed was as wide as it was long - great for a nice peaceful sleep! The only 'down side' was that we didn't find the pillows particularly comfortable. It wasn't the end of the world, just a wee niggle.
We had a couple of drinks in the bar - very nice, looks like it is favoured by the hip younger-working crowd and after a dinner out at Cafe Anduluz, we returned to choose a DVD and retire to our room to watch on our large TV!
Breakfast the following morning was in the restaurant. Again, in keeping with the rest of the hotel, this was very trendy and chic. The staff were very attentive and we had a lovely, tasty breakfast - thoroughly recommend the breakfast grill.
Parking in Edinburgh is notoriously expensive, and so it is not the hotel's fault that my parking for less than 24 hours was over £26. I guess Edinburgh City Council has to pay for the tram system somehow...! My advice would be for you not to hire a car if you are in Edinburgh as parking is expensive and most places are within walking distance/short taxi ride away.
We will definately be back to this hotel. It is fun, funky and fabulous. Excellent central location with lovely helpful and friendly staff. I think this hotel would be fine for couples with children - we certainly saw a few while we were there and the families seemed to be quite happy. If you are looking for a romatic getaway/girlie weekend, this is certainly a hotel to check out.
