The Mount Royal Hotel in Edinburgh was a very nice hotel. Central to old town, new town, buses, trains, hollyrood, etc. The room ans common areas were extremely clean and the staff polite. The bar and restaurant were fantastic- good drinks and great breakfast buffet. Home made butter was delicious. Only issues were coffee machines-2- where one was not working and the other brew your own in 1-2 min was backed up occasionally with the breakfast crowd. BIGGEST CONCERN was the location for drop off and pickup- street in front was RESERVED only for buses and trains. Very confusing as you had to figure it out on your own - lots of driving in circles and finally drop off a block or two away in StAndrews square and lug suitcases to hotel. That should be mention - e.g., no direct drop off at hotel due to reserved street; need to park a couple blocks away! Overall, good experience.
