“This is a cute, quiet, and reasonably priced property for a city-center hotel. The location, in a historic Georgian townhouse near Edinburgh Waverley station, is a real advantage. Rooms have upscale touches like Scottish toiletries and rainfall showers; I particularly like that they stock local gins and whiskies at the on-site bar.”
