Gartmore Vacation Packages

One marine place was a lovely place to stay fantastic views, everything there that you need to enjoy your stay, would be definitely recommended them

The room was beautiful and clean, as were the gardens and building, and the check in was friendly. If we were reviewing based on that alone it would be 10 out of 10. Unfortunately the fundamentals of a B&B, ie sleeping and breakfast, fell way short. The noise from the planes meant a very disturbed night's sleep. We did not know, nor were we advised, that we were on a direct flight path with planes coming in very low and loud right above the hotel. We bearly slept. The breakfast the following day was a self serve breakfast, with cooked elements sat in candle heated containers. It was clearly more focused on price than the quality of products. We expected cooked to order breakfast, in a 'boutique' hotel. The OJ was out of a carton, not fresh, and there was a lack of serving utensils meaning several sets of hands reaching in to the bread, pastries, fruit ect. Upon checking out we handed the key to the lady at reception, who took the key and simply said, "That's you all done then," before walking away. The fact we weren't asked about our stay is a pretty clear indication of staff already knowing the answer before the question is asked. It was clear there was no point in trying to mention the sleepless night, or at least if we wanted to try we'd have to run after the receptionist who quickly disappeared into the back. The flightpath noise needs to be clearly stated to guests beforehand, so at least earplugs can be purchased in advance.

Breakfast was great.

Gorgeous boutique hotel in the center of town. I loved the bathroom and it's huge claw tub. The breakfast was generous and tasty. My only complaint was the lack of air conditioning. Although the area did not get very hot during our stay (max was 70f), if you run hot at night this may be uncomfortable. We did have a fan in our room. The staff and locating were excellent. There's a very nice spa on site that we did not use.

Easy

There is no better place to stay in Edinburgh! The staff was superb, the location couldn’t be beat, and we never wanted to leave our room. We will definitely be back!

The location of this property was excellent. It had great accessibility to buses which could get you all around the city. The big downfall of the property was the heat in the rooms! The addition of fans would have been very helpful. Even though the windows were open and it was cool at night, it didn’t seem to cool the room very much. Pastries at breakfast weren’t always fresh so having stale pastries 4/5 days we were there was a downside. The staff was really helpful.
