Matthew was amazing!! He took the time to get to know us and always had a smile for us. He is knowledgeable and willing to assist in any way possible. The hotel room was clean and quiet. The hotel restaurant had great food. The hotel is only a 20-25 min bus ride to the City Center, so very easy. We loved the hotel and would highly recommended.

Love this hotel when working at Heriot-Watt. Clean and comfortable with excellent staff. Breakfast is basic but well done. You need transport though, it is out of the way for anywhere but the University/Research Park.

I needed to cancel my reservation, and while Expedia tried to act on my behalf my request was refused by the hotel. This is very poor business practice.

Did not like the bathroom. They made it modern with glass wall and door not noise proof lol don’t need to know everything going on in there. This hotel is located on a college campus and while only 5 miles from city seemed a hundred miles away the only place to eat was the hotel. It did give me a life lesson on how to use a bus to get into town.

It was a great stay at Courtyard but there were few things missing out that should be included in a 4 star hotel.

Nice hotel. Bit of a journey into town but if you rent a car or drive no problem. About 20-30mins. Hotel was nice, food was good. (Breakfast is worth the extra 10£ per night) Overall would recommend.
