7.0
"There is nothing subtle about this recently-refurbished hotel, which has cleverly reinvented itself as fun-central — shrinking violets need not apply."

"The ideal choice for party animals. It’s fun and funky, albeit compact and snug, and right in the midst of the raucous stag and hen do-packed pubs of the Grassmarket. "
Lonely Planet
Top Choice
"An endearingly quirky hotel set in a historic Grassmarket tenement in the heart of the Old Town."

Michelin Guide
"Impressive former sea mens' mission, set on the quayside; the first of the Malmaison hotels."
Insight Guides
"A superb renovation of Leith's former Seamen's Mission building featuring art deco styling, four-poster beds and a first class restaurant and Parisian bistro."
Rough Guide
"Chic, modern hotel set in the grand old seamen’s hostel just back from the wharf-side."
Star Service
"Located a 15-minute drive from the center (a long half-hour walk), this hotel cuts a fashionable figure in the longshoreman's part of town."

Frommer's
"It's a respectable part of the spruced-up waterfront, its brasserie and bar buzzing, with guests spilling out onto the cobbled street."
