Provider-sourced guest reviews.
The staff were kind and helpful. The breakfast room was large and airy. Nice bar area to relax.
The rooms are not soundproof at all. We heard every word spoken in the rooms beside us and were woken up several times with guests walking/talking in the corridor and doors opened and closed.
Beautiful building, lovely location, comfortable and welcoming.
Nothing
The atmosphere
Bacon not cooked to the person needs etc
Ruhige Lage. Kostenfreier Parkplatz
Lage ist weit ab vom Schuß. Sehr abgewohnt. Teilweise schmuddelig. Personal nicht sehr professionell.
Location. Room very comfortable.
This is only a personal choice but there was no real ale on tap or bottled. Went to another establishment to spend the evening. All breakfast items were not available at the same time. Had to wait for cooked food for around 20 minutes and some items did not arrive at all. Some guests took a lot more than they should and then not consumed. Although it was appreciated that the food was cooked fresh it would probably be better if orders were taken for the cooked breakfast to avoid guests taking more than they should as there was only a small amount that came out at the same time.
Location and staff
The water pressure in shower
Warm welcome on arrival and it was a good location on our last day in Scotland. Our flight was very early in the morning so the staff provided us with breakfast to take with us . The staff were very friendly . We stayed in one of the pods which it was nice .
A fan would it have been a relieved as is was a bit stuffy in the pods.
Lovely hotel food was great amazing breakfast
All good
The Inn was a place we couldn't complain about. Everything was quiet okay. Just the way we expacted it.
Struttura bella e curata a mezz'ora di macchina da Edimburgo. Personale cortese e disponibile. Noi abbiamo cenato nel loro ristorante ed era molto buono. La stanza era semplice, pulita e curata nei dettagli. Molto buona anche la colazione, tipica scozzese e molto abbondante, servita a buffet.
Super schön, gemütlich und echt freundliches Personal

The food in the restaurant was fantastic. The staff were very friendly without being over familiar. Location managed to make a business trip feel like a seaside holiday.
Not a dislike because i rarely eat breakfast, however if i was to criticise anything i'd say breakfast starts too late, probably more pertinent to people on business rather than holidaymakers.
Fantastic room as I stayed in the honeymoon suite.
It wasn't as clean as you would expect. Dust on skirting boards and on top of plug sockets.
Die Lage war sehr gut
1 Serviceangestelkte am Abend war nicht gut Glas vergessen zum Getränk, wollte es gleich bringen. Nach 10 min war sie am "Quatschen" Zimmer zuwenig sauber. Habe das Bett verschoben damit ich an den Lichtschalter kam, hinter dem Bett wurde seit längerem nichts gereinigt

Lovely small hotel in a lovely village. Nice clean comfortable room with balcony overlooking the Firth of Forth and a view of the Forth Bridges. Good evening meal and breakfast. Staff were polite and helpful.
Nothing
The food at dinner & breakfast were exvellent as were all the facilities
Nothing
Proximity of EV chargers and easy access to the firth
Last minute change from pod to room and reception rarely manned
Zum Frühstück war ein kleines Buffet aufgebaut, das ständig wieder aufgefüllt wurde. Das Personal war sehr freundlich. Die Zimmer waren mit allem ausgestattet, was man benötigt. Alles war sauber und gepflegt.
Perfectly placed for us as we were visiting Limekilns. We had a glamping pod, booked as a bit of a novelty but it was perfect. Everything we needed for our short stay.
Nothing
Desayuno, ubicación, equipación de la habitación y amabilidad del personal.
Al ser un edificio antiguo no dispone de ascensor, lo cual es un inconveniente para subir el equipaje si la habitación está en la primera planta.
This was a good location for our last night in Scotland. Out of the city but close to get to airport. The food was good. We stayed in one of the pods and it was nice to have our own space, shower and bathroom.

Beautiful hotel and location, the scenery was stunning. Great breakfast.
Very clean room Pretty area
The food in the restaurant was excellent. The staff very helpful and pleasant. Our only issue was the lock on our door was broken we were offered a move to accommodation in the hotel from the glamping pod.
The breakfast could of been hotter would of liked a warm plate
Overall nice location with a good view. Great breakfast. Dinner claimed to be shrimp scampi but was frozen breaded shrimp.
I’m sort of a clean freak and was sad to see dirty carpet on the stairs and marked up walls and a moldy dirty floor in the bathroom.
Die Lage war gut, das Essen von der Karte sehr gut.
Zimmer war sehr klein und alles ist sehr in die Jahre gekommen. Das Frühstück war enttäuschend, kleine Auswahl und gebrühter, dünner Kaffee ohne Geschmack.
Sehr schön gelegen. Mit einem Restaurant im Erdgeschoss.
Everything,lovely food and very helpful staff,and very scenic location.
Nothing.
Nous avons logé dans un pod. Très bien aménagé, literie confortable. Le restaurant est très bon aussi : petit déjeuner complet (buffet) inclus dans la réservation et dîner sur place (voir prix sur place).
The location and the breakfast.
We stayed in one of the pods. The pod was nice and has everything you need. The first thing you notice is the dirty mat. Granted the floor was mopped but it needs to be brushed/hoovered before mopping.
Le personnel et l’emplacement
Le personnel accueillant et la situation en bord de mer et à quelques kilomètres d’Edimbourg.
L’hôtel accueille des fêtes et mariages, nous avons eu droit à un mariage la première nuit avec musique très forte jusqu’à minuit. Si nous l’avions su, nous aurions réservé ailleurs.
Gut. Frühstück war super Personal freundlich und hilfsbereit
Leider war es nicht sauber (nicht staubgesaugt, viele Spinnweben, Streifen im wc)
Wystrój hotelu, pokoje, uprzejmość obsługi.

Nice comfortable room Good location Dog friendly
We visited in the heat wave and the room got rather hot
Nous avons beaucoup apprécié l'emplacement, le calme, la gentillesse du personnel. Le pod était de bonne taille , très pratique avec kitchenette, salle de bains et terrasse. Petit déjeuner sous forme de buffet avec grand choix typiquement écossais ou continental
La literie n'était pas de très bonne qualité, attention pour les personnes qui ont déjà des douleurs dorsales...le ménage est à revoir surtout sous les lits et au niveau de la terrasse, mégots sous la table.
Le cadre est vraiment sympathique, les pods sont bien agencés. Le gardien de nuit Jim est super accueillant, très gentil. Le petit déjeuner est copieux. Le personnel est agréable également.nous avions loué 3 pods.
Le pod était un peu poussiéreux sous le lit, notre porte de salle de bain coinçait un peu, il faudrait raboter un peu la porte. Une des serrures extérieures fermait mal aussi.
The room was clean and the bed was comfy
The shower was blocked water took ages evacuating
The pod's design
The dimensions may be insufficient for families comprising three or more individuals. The sofa would be more suitable if it incorporated a convertible bed feature.
Friendly, good location
Water spitting from taps. Uncontrollable shower head. Breakfast choice could be better, eg plain yoghurt, fruit nuts, real juice, fresh coffee
The staff was very friendly, answering all our questions with a smile and a prompt response. The chalet was extremely clean and cozy—great value for money! We also enjoyed a nice breakfast and great food at the restaurant
nothing.
Hôtel agréable et bien situé.
Quaint, clean well located.
Water in the room wasn’t drinkable… although bottled was provided… and the taps spat. Service was very slow… staff were about but not when you needed something and in a big property made them difficult to locate. For example not always someone on the bar or reception and no working bell.
Excellent location ,room very comfortable great view.
Can’t think of anything.
Set in a very quiet area
Front of pod looked straight into the rear carpark, could done with some kind of fencing for a bit of privacy
Good view from our room. Staff were very pleasant & helpful. Good breakfast.
Location was excellent and I even went for an evening run. Bedroom overlooking the firth of forth. With table and 2 chairs. Had evening meal which was really good. Decent selection of beers. Breakfast was buffet style and had loads of choice hot & cold items all freshly prepared. For me a little late starting at 8am for business stays. Big car park, completely free. They have some glamping pods at the rear of the hotel which look nice.
Water system in the room seemed to have an issue with pressure in that it would change quite dramatically.
Good choice
Wi fi non existant
The location is perfect lovely view’s peaceful easy to get to places around , nice walk to the harbour .
It could do with a good deep clean ,windows in restaurant dirty inside .Shower mould round the edges, and the shower house rusty needing cleaned or replaced big cobweb at the window where buffet for breakfast was served . Breakfast was very greasy eggs lying in grease .
Sehr schönes großes Zimmer Nr.7 mit Balkon und toller Aussicht.
Der Gastraum und der Empfangsbereich waren ungepflegt. Im Restaurant alte abgeschabte Stühle. Der Boden voller Staub und Krümmel auch morgens beim Frühstück. Über alle Tage hatte man den Eindruck, dass niemand sich darum kümmert. Kein Obst beim Frühstücksbuffet. Einfache Dinge, die man besser machen kann einschließlich der Dekoration im Restaurant.
Clean, well presented and lovely staff
The toilet seat in our room wasn’t the correct size (too small) for our toilet.
It exceeded my expectations. It was amazing.It had everything we needed. Very clean.

Sea location - proper country pub hotel feeling . Excellent value
Menu is ok just typical pub food u see every chain . We travel a lot. This place cud really make its mark with bespoke menu that changes with seasons .
The setting and tranquility
Pricey
Beautiful property in a beautiful setting
Very clean and comfortable.
Great location, great food
The location was lovely balcony from room was a very nice touch
Water pressure in our room was okay but the water in the taps spat out at you on and off I got soaked a few times Breakfast the food was okay but disappointed with buffet type service a shame as we had lunch and dinner and food was amazing
The accommodation was average and views from balcony where nice.
The plumbing needs attention, shower flooding bathroom. The breakfast was appalling, a buffet setup and not at all edible..
Lovely pods, lovely staff, relaxing stay
It has a warm atmosphere and it is family friendly.
Nothing.
Lovely location, nice friendly hotel. Non dairy milk available after notifying in advance. Clean and tidy room.
Disappointing breakfast. Cooked food looked good but no fruit, yoghurt poor, cereal selection v Limited. Tea and coffee stewed.
Beautiful outlook from our room, which was facing out to the river. Lovely breakfast.
Room 7 was superb. Spacious with large comfy bed. The view from the balcony was excellent. Delicious buffet breakfast. Staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful.
The standard twin room had uncomfortable beds which were a bit too small for normal sized adults.
That the cabin looked on to a car park..where we thought there would have been more of a view. The cabin could have been cleaner (hair and cob webs found) food was cold in the restaurant. Staff were pleasant but no one once asked how things were at all during our stay.
Lovely location and staff
We've stayed here a few times and love the place and the location. We stayed in the pods outside, and although they are a bit older than when we first stayed, they are quirky and comfortable. Dog friendly and lovely places to walk

Location, ease of access and parking. Friendly helpful staff.

The glamping pod was perfect for our short stay. The food was good and the staff very welcoming and dog friendly. Enjoyed the sun terrace.
Location and view is amazing and in good weather the balcony was a definite plus
Buffet breakfast poorly presented and did not look appetising.Dinner the previous night (macaroni cheese) presented on a dinner plate definitely a first.
إطلالة الفندق على البحر وفي الجانب الآخر على الحديقة .. المواقف متوفرة ومجانية
الغرف في أوروبا بصفة عامة صغيرة لايوجد عزل مناسب الإفطار متواضع
Die Glampingpods konnten leider wegen siedelnder Wespen nicht bezogen werden. Wir wurden daher direkt im Haupthaus untergebracht. Die Zimmer waren groß, komfortabel und die kleinen Bäder waren blitzsauber! Wirklich super. Das Frühstücksbuffet war reichhaltig!
The view was nice from the balcony. The room was clean and had thick curtains. There were towels, an ironing board, and hairdryer. There was a car park and bar downstairs.
I waited about an hour for dinner, and then it arrived cold. I sent it back, and it was returned far too hot. I couldn't get attention from the waitress to get some water, and every other table had a carafe of water. I had to wait an age for dessert as well. There seemed to be one poor woman frantically running the bar, restaurant, and front of house on her own, with an occasional second lady helping. This place needs more staff. Thankfully I didn't have to wait an hour for breakfast; it was a hot buffet already cooked, and it was decent. I couldn't sleep as the light was on in the hall all night and kept me awake. The bedroom and bathroom are tiny, but I didn't mind too much. There was no info in the rooms about the hotel facilities or info about the wifi, so I had to go back to reception and find out. I wish I had booked somewhere else, though, and gotten a prompt dinner and a good night's sleep, as that's all I really wanted.
excellent breakfast buffet very good obliging smiling staff. rooms very comfortable.
Breakfast quite poor Staff friendly, had to wait for breakfast items Small area, help yourself
Waiting for items, small area, not huge selection
Wir haben einen Zimmerupgrade erhalten. Auf Abfrage konnten wir den Check-out um 1 Stunde kostenlos verlängern.
De prachtige rustgevende locatie met fantastisch uitzicht op Fifth & Forth. Het diner was prima!
Niets beviel niet.
Comfortable roon, pleasant dining room with a panoramic view of the Forth bridges and a good breakfast. Friendly staff as well.

Loved everything about this hotel, beautiful place freindly helpful staff and food was excellant
Glamping Pod is spacious and fully fitted. Comfortable bed. Bathroom with shower. Relaxing setting area inside and outside. Next door to the Inn which provides breakfast. Highly recommend.

gutes englisches Frühstück, großes Zimmer, dicht bei Edinburgh
eines der beiden Fenster ließ sich nicht öffnen und machte den Anschein von beginnendem Schimmel.
Hotel was very clean and comfortable.Food was great for both dinner and breakfast . Staff were very friendly and helpful too. A lovely stay in a quiet location just what we needed.
Nothing to note all was good.
Quite place, some historic places around, close to Edinburgh.
Small room for 4 people, but fairly apart
Good location - could only just see the Forth bridges. Evening meal & breakfast very good( Staff pleasant especially Dianne & Jim
Blinds dirty, radiator was hanging off wall, dusty & dirty skirting, shower difficult to operate and shower head loose and kept dropping down.
Lovely place to stay, lovely restaurant on sight and Charlestown a lovely place and ideal for the cruise terminal at Rosyth
Ampio parcheggio gratuito.. bella la struttura, camera spaziosa! Colazione nella norma non così eccezionale come scrivono. C’era sia dolce che salato ma sempre le stesse cose e non così speciali! Secondo me il prezzo così alto non è proporzionato ai servizi e al livello della colazione! E’ stata la struttura più cara.. ma nel complesso e’ stato positivo il soggiorno.
Il prezzo troppo alto
Dîner et petit déjeuner bon et servi avec sourire !
Location great with excellent views of the Firth of Forth Traditional Scottish breakfast, what's not to like and evening choices all good Great accommodation selection on offer - Room, pod or lodge
We travelled with our small dog, she was made welcome, and we had no issues, our room was clean and tidy, and had everything you would expect.
Pity the toilet seat was the correct one for the toilet, But I imagine this was a temporary fix, until they managed to get the correct size
Break fast good location good as I was on remembrance trip as I had lived in the area sixty odd years ago
The heat
Conveniently placed, Food in the restaurant was excellent
Room was a tad small and window didn’t stay open properly. Wish we had upgraded the room when booking.
We stayed in one of the pods all good and comfortable would stay there again
Atmosfera i przyjazny personel
Brak zastrzeżeń
It met our expectations. Staff were friendly, dinner and breakfast was excellent. Location was ideal for a quiet break.
Not applicable.
Great room with an amazing view. Morning coffee on the terrace was nice
Staff were amazing. Room was great. Was a wonderful final night in Scotland with an easy drive to the airport to return the car rental and head on to London.
pięknie położony hotel, cisza spokój, blisko do Edynburga czy Stirling , bardzo dobre jedzenie.
śniadania mogły być trochę bardziej różnorodne brak nabiału i warzyw
La dotazione in camera di un bollitore per te e caffè
La colazione unpo' troppo scozzese. Poca scelta per una tipica colazione più mediterranea Le camere un po' piccole con bagni mignon
