The Hotel was clean but I was very disappointed with the size of the room. It was VERY small and felt very claustrophobic due to the dark decor and the small size of the room and the FAKE WINDOW! there was hardly any room to put our bags down on the floor. I feel like the price was expensive in comparison to the spacious rooms I am used to for that price.

Room was as in pic except for the tropical temp!
Room was beautiful it was so hot we couldn’t sleep all night. Sunday morning checkout was very early at 11am, contacted the reception next morning to say that the room was unbearably hot and could we have an extension on the check out and were told he’d but it would cost £30. Very disappointing as the concept of the hotel room is unique in Edinburgh but room is very small and temperature control made it unbearable.

Decadence and luxury
Beautiful room and felt incredibly luxurious. Staff were super friendly and helpful which was lovely. Cocktails and breakfast were also top notch. The VIP package was epic and well worth it.

4/10 Fair

The hotel staff were nice, but the overall experience was not the best. In actual fact, we were left a little bit disappointed. The room was not ready when we arrived and so we ended up leaving our bags in the room for hotel staff to make it up for us. Came back to our hotel around 6pm after having walked around for a few hours and it still was not made up for us. We then had to tell staff to delay making up the room as we wanted to freshen up before going out for dinner. There was only one towel in our room at this point which we ended up sharing. Once we got back and the room was made up with the extra towel as we requested, we began to notice a few flaws. The fridge was not working. The drinks inside were warm and no light was on. I mentioned this to staff at reception on our way back to our room the following day and shortly after, without anyone even coming to look at the fridge, I received a response via WhatsApp to say, no don’t worry it is working! ... it definitely was not. After searching ourselves, we found the switch underneath the fridge to turn it on. The fact that nobody even came to look and told no it is working, when it clearly was not, was disappointing to say the least. However, to try and find light in this situation, staff did kindly offer to store our drinks in the fridge downstairs. To which we were grateful. We also noticed that the tap in the bathroom was EXTREMELY wobbly and was not at all secure! And in room coffee was not restocked

Very nice, but a little too warm for me
Room is really quirky and well decorated, the room is a little on the small side, however as I had read the description before hand I was expecting it so it wasn’t an issue. The biggest issue I had with my stay was the temperature of the room, there are no windows or air conditioning, it meant the room was very hot even in December, so I didn’t have the most comfortable nights sleep. I’m not sure there is any way to get the room to be cooler short of keeping your actual hotel room door open, so if this would bother you I wouldn’t recommend it, however if that isn’t an issue for you then I would recommend it. Customer service was top drawer as well, the two times I requested something it was brought up to my room immediately. One of those occasions was for a fan to try and cool the room, although it unfortunately made no difference. Hotel location is also excellent, right in the centre and only a short walk from all the main central attractions.
