Room had a vantiy area with good hairdryer, iron provided, all theses touches makes for travelling light for a city weekend, the mini kitchen was ideal, small fridge, selection of glasses, coffee maker, kettle, great when you want to chill after a busy day. Only gripe could do with a tea towel. Self controlled heating which is great for scottish weather,

Very friendly and courteous staff. The room was lovely, warm, comfortable, had everything we could need. So handy to have a little kitchenette in the room. Great shower. Free bottle of red wine in the room for us as our hotels.com perk. Has a lovely sitting area in the lobby as well. So many cafes and restaurants in the area and so close to all the attractions and transport options.
