Good to stay but poor services with the hotel.
Just upset the hotel did not respond to my request. I booked it for my friend who got married recently, it’s a gift for them. I asked for a welcome Prosecco and some banner saying “congratulations Mr & Mrs”, but when I ask my friend, she said, the hotel did not do any of my request.

Nice hotel outside of city center
Our stay was great! Beds were not comfortable and breakfast left something to be desired for the price. Matthew - one of the front desk supervisors - was excellent!! He gave great recommendations, knew who we were when we walked past and would always ask questions about our day! His service was top notch!!

The Stay is amazing but not all Staff are helpful. The 2 ladies in reception was very kind and guided us alot. Rohit from breakfast took the time to sit and walk us through all the bus station we can use and best method to travel as well. The housekeeping had trouble to understand us as well but other than its a Marriott things are comfortable.

wrong type of hotel for its location.
Given that the price for this hotel room was above average, I want to give an object review. 1/. This is a fairly new-build, the layout and walk-through need attention. I did not like the way the path to the lifts went directly past the dining tables and the bar area. Ok, great in the event of a fire, you can get out fast. But this should not be the overriding reason for a design feature of this nature. 2/. This very open nature of the ground floor for me was the reason the main aroma here was of the toilets and possibly the more stale smells emanating from the kitchens. This made me apprehensive about dining here. However, as it was late, and the hotel location is away from the main Edinburgh restaurants, I did order food, which was excellent and well presented. 3/. The hotel room was adequate, with no frills. There was nothing that would place it above a Travelodge room or Premier Inn room, which leaves me wondering why the price was well above those of other two hoteliers. 4/. The green LED on the air conditioning control panel is much too bright. One may as well try and sleep with a light on, or turn the A/C off and end up with a stuffy room. The location is beautiful, Heriot-Watt university campus is lovely. It is just a pity that this hotel is much too corporate to blend with its surroundings.

Poor sleep due no natural ventilation. Without air conditioning it was far too hot and with air conditioning you have all the discomforts that it offers. Too cold, too dry, too noisy, too needy, etc.
