JA The Bruntsfield - Edinburgh
Everything was great. Our room had a very noisy vent outside our window, which might have been from the hotel boiler which could be heard all night. That was the only downside. Otherwise the staff and service was amazing!!

The room was clean, I found the bed comfortable but my partner felt the mattress was too hard. The room was too hot though, we had the a AC going to offset the heat at the end of November! Pool and gym were great!
