luckyBatistuta Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Our room was fantastic, bed was absolutely massive. Food was excellent too, highly recommend the Venison main and the Apple and Pear tartlet for dessert. All the staff were so friendly and couldn’t do enough for you, even the chef👏👏👏 Even had a wee chat with Ann who asked what we thought of the hotel and if we were happy with everything.

Goodfella Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Stayed here the last two nights. Was fantastic, genuinely lovely staff who were super professional. Room is far bigger than I expected.

husref musemic Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 (edited) I stayed last weekend & as others have said it's an outstanding Luxury hotel. I've stayed in plenty hotels in West Edinburgh & this is streets ahead. Skyline meal was excellent & the new bar at the end with the sofas is a great addition. Breakfast was nice, help yourself buffet juice cereals, toast etc & order cooked from the menu. I couldn't believe it was tynecastle to be honest. Blown away. We are in good hands.

However a brand new hotel should get a little slack as it fine tunes its operation. The two hotels are not really comparable in any way though imo.
