Garner Edinburgh Haymarket by IHG
Would have liked more yoghurt, seeds, etc for breakfast. Staff at hotel reception were excellent. Room was comfortable and quiet. Excellent situation for transport: taxi rank opposite hotel, buses. Only problem were the lifts: two off completely for one night and only one working on others.
