What is your IHG RewardsClub status?

Platinum Ambassador

Were you (or for multi-stayers are you generally) happy with the hotel/stay?

Yes

Which room did you book and which upgrade did you receive?

o Booked - Standard Room on corporate rate
o Received - Club Room with Club Lounge access

How are the rooms?

+ A bit dated but bathrooms look to be modernised recently
+ Comfy large King Bed
+ Tired wardrobes & cupboards
+ Minibar with no stock despite mini bar menu / price list on table

What was good and what was bad?


Good:
+ Status recognised at check in - room upgrade, bonus points, welcome letter
+ Small enough to be welcoming, big enough to be called a hotel
+ Bed very pleasant as was bathroom
+ Bar snacks not over priced

Bad:
+ Limited on street parking with max 4 hour stay - £10 a night car park around corner (it rains a lot in Edinburgh!)
+ Cupboards and wardrobes have seen better days
+ No stock in mini bar

Value for $ or Priority Club Points? Would you return?


Yes, would return. Paid £97 on corp rate and was worth that.
