The bed was exceptionally comfortable in the deluxe room, bath at the end of the bed seemed strange but my wife liked it. The bathroom had a nice spacious shower which was nice, however, some of the floor tiles were a little loose in the bathroom. The staff were amiable, we had our evening meal in the restaurant and it was very nice, and breakfast was very nice too. A short drive from Edinburgh city centre, the price was it was worth it, you could spend more on a city hotel but the Sun Inn was really worth it.
There were some toothpaste streaks on the wall tiles in the bathroom and a cobweb on the ceiling. Overall cleanliness was good but it could have been better. There was nowhere to control the heating, if there was we didn't see it.

The breakfast was good and the service was very good. Each member of staff was helpful, polite and friendly. I liked the setting for breakfast and the open fire was a welcome touch on a distinctly autumnal morning. This is a lovely place to stay and convenient for road travel to all points.
The bar and restaurant closed at 10pm so when I returned at 10.10 thinking I would enjoy a 'nightcap' at the bar I was disappointed. All was in darkness downstairs. Access to my room upstairs was fine but I would have returned a little later had I known in advance. I didn't think to ask when I checked in.

The staff were lovely young people, polite and responsive to requests Great Shower Good food
Lighting poor in bedroom . needs bedside table lamps Remote for TV wasn’t working properly. Had to manually alter channel and volume intermittently. Poached egg at breakfast was waterlogged Toast was burnt. Had to send it back, second attempt was only done on one side. Sourdough toasted on a grill plate I think Have marmalade and jam on tables at breakfast please No overnight staff on site a bit of a worry

The actual inn was great, staff, dining, lounge. Our room was good, smallish, comfy bed but no where to hang clothes. We asked fr 2 hangers to use on the bathroom door hook. Bus stop was 10 min walk & frequent buses. Return bus from Edinburgh at 11pm so u need a taxi/Unber back if staying late.
No where to hang a few clothes.

We had a wonderful 3 night stay. Room was clean and comfortable. Housekeeping came each day. Breakfast was amazing, hot tasty and plentiful. Service from all the staff was superb. Evening meals in the pub restaurant was of a high standard. Lovely location with great walks. 20 min walk to the station into Edinburgh. We would definitely stay again.
Radiator needed more power

The location was perfect as we were close to our daughter. The staff were all very helpful & friendly. The downstairs was clean, modern & comfortable. Breakfast was good & staff were quite happy to accommodate me for certain foods I was allowed due to a medical issue. Bed was comfortable enough.
We were surprised that the bedroom did not match downstairs. There were no bedside lamps, the carpet was quite stained, curtains were off some of the rings holding them up. Also there were no glasses to use for water. In the bathroom the light above the wash hand basin didn't work & neither did the plug in the basin, which meant water just ran out continuously. It was also in need of some refurbishment. Disappointed with the room.

Very comfortable, great team and good breakfast and dinner
Not a negative but people should be aware that the kitchen tends to close early on an evening simply due to demand. We got caught out arriving back at the hotel at about 21:00 but the team were great serving us drinks for the room and helping with ordering a Chinese takeaway for delivery to the room.
