“For a two-star, Ardmillan Hotel punches above its weight, and I think its location is a real asset, placing you within easy reach of Edinburgh's Old Town via a straightforward bus route. The rooms are compact but comfortable, providing a good base, and I appreciate that the shared bathrooms are kept spotlessly clean. It's the kind of place where the staff remember your name and are genuinely invested in helping you make the most of your Edinburgh visit.”
