Warm and cozy!
Cute, small hotel with lots of hospitality. Very homey. The breakfast was excellent. It was out of the way but an easy bus trip and very worth the extra time.

Not worth the money
Bed sheets and pillows were dirty. One of bottles of water in room was opened and half drunk. In morning went for breakfast restaurant it wasn’t that busy took 55mins for breakfast to arrive and all food was dry and overcooked probably the worst cooked breakfast we have ever had. Hand much better stays in a travel lodge for the half price. Must admit we did complain and they gave us a full refund.

Stay Over
Stayed over for a couole of nights and we were given an upgrade to the Murrayfield House. Room was very spacious and the cleaniness of the room was excellent.
Staff were very warm and welcoming. We had breakfast in The Bothy restaurant which only complaint would be the hot food was very dry. We had expected food to be cooked on order but it was as if the food had been cooked very early morning and reheated when ordered. The choice of food was fantastic but I would recommend that food be cooked when ordered by guests.

Well placed and comfortable stay in a nice setting
A really warm welcome and quite a unique stay in the "House" section of the hotel, and a garden room at the back of the House was quiet and relatively spacious. This was an accessible room (which I did not require personally), but was comfortable and met my needs. The breakfast was excellent (including the smoked and cooked fish!) and I would certainly stay again.

An absolutely incredible stay. The place is warm, elegant, and boutique. They have a complimentary upgrade, and the suite was luxurious and beautiful. They also accommodated several special requests in terms of luggage storage. The location is right on the main road coming from the airport and into town, and it’s an easy quick ride to all the sites. Highly recommend Murrayfield to get out of the congestion of town, but be highly convenient to what you need.

Lovely rooms.
Nice rooms, elegantly furnished. Strange arrangement in bathroom, where there were basically 2 shower units and insufficient space for all the towels etc, which made everything a bit cluttered. Restaurant average, food and service so-so.
I've stayed here before, and my impression is that standards have perhaps slipped a little.
