AI Summary

Princes Street is right outside Edinburgh Railway Station. It is convenient to go shopping and visit attractions. The Scottish are warm and nice. The hotel breakfast is very delicious, semi-self-service, the room bedding is also very comfortable, and the night lotion provided is really useful. It's a pity that it can't be bought. It's like milk and can resist the strong wind and dry weather in Scotland. The best castle hotel.

Very good, the overall service level is very high, the British service feels comfortable, the service staff are carefully selected, and it feels like entering an aristocratic hotel. The breakfast is great, and several specialties of Edinburgh are included.

The hotel itself is a tourist attraction, and the magnificent building can be easily recognized from various overlooking points in Edinburgh. The service and hotel facilities are excellent, and the breakfast is also very rich. I highly recommend it!

The location and service are very good, and the hotel's decoration and layout are also very distinctive, but it is also an old hotel, and the hardware and water pressure are still unsatisfactory.

The location is impeccable. It's right next to the train station. If you want to take the bus to the airport, you can get it just outside the gate. I personally recommend a room with a view of the old town or the castle, it is very enjoyable to watch the sunset.
