We were very grateful to have been checked in early and able to clean up and have a small rest after our red eye before exploring the city. I appreciated the Dove soap dispensers in the bathroom and shower. The rooms also had kettles, coffee and tea. The beds and pillows were comfortable and the desk chair was comfortabl… We had a fantastic stay at this hotel, the staff were fantastic and friendly.

A nice example of Holiday Inn Express.
Let's start with the staff who were excellent. Very helpful and excellent customer service. The breakfast was very good although the toaster was glacially slow. The Gluten Free options were very good here. There is a little cafe/dinner close by which is basic but good. There is also a little convenience store which is open all hours. Very useful. Calling it The Royal Mile is definitely a marketing… Let's start with the staff who were excellent. Very helpful and excellent customer service.
