Staff were so nice and friendly, really accommodating. We dined at the grill- probably one of the best meals we’ve had in Scotland. The beds were really comfy and we had a large room. Really enjoyed our brief stay.

The Dakota Edinburgh was clean, comfortable and cozy. The plus is that it was next to a grocery store for other items, and next to a bus stop for easy access to Edinburgh. The restaurant was excellent as well. Everyone was very friendly and I would stay again.
