My stay at the hotel was a mix of lovely surprises and a few disappointments. The rooms were sumptuous with some special touches like champagne on arrival, chocolates, and freshly made cookies, although they were smaller than expected and quite dark due to poor lighting which didn't complement the dark decor. The service was top-notch, with staff going out of their way to be friendly and helpful, though there was a minor issue with housekeeping leaving a window open causing rain damage. The location was excellent, offering a relaxing haven just a couple of miles from the city center, surrounded by greenery, including a putting green we enjoyed. The dining experience, while not as strong as other offerings, was still enjoyable, especially set against the stunning backdrop. Overall, a great stay with a few areas for improvement.

The hotel's decor and lighting in the rooms were elegant and clean, creating a very comfortable atmosphere with rich fabrics and quirky furnishings. However, the rooms were a bit smaller than expected, and the low lighting made the dark decor less inviting. The service was top-notch, with the exception of an incident where housekeeping left a window open, causing some inconvenience. The location was peaceful and relaxing, offering lovely views and a warm neighborhood feeling. The dining experience was superb, being greeted warmly and enjoying a delightful meal. Overall, a cozy stay with a few minor drawbacks.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of delightful and slightly underwhelming experiences. The rooms, while smaller than expected for a party of six, were beautifully furnished with antique pieces, but changing was a bit of a hassle. The service was top-notch with attentive staff, although drinks before dinner took a bit longer. The location was perfect for a short visit, close to Edinburgh, but the lack of air circulation was noticeable. Dining was outstanding with fantastic food and impeccable service, however Danish pastries were missed. Overall, a great stay with minor room size and airflow concerns.
