Gorgeous location and such a fun place to stay. The staff were so helpful and friendly. Will definitely stay here again when back in Edinburgh. The rooms were all named and we stayed in the FG Mitchell room. Was a little small but was everything we needed for 1 night. Super comfy bed and everything just fit the aesthetic of the 1919 ship turned hotel.
