Ja The Bruntsfield Edinburgh is often praised for its spacious and clean rooms, with some offering great views of the Links. The hotel's location is convenient, with easy access to bus stops and within walking distance of local coffee shops and restaurants; however, some guests have noted that the city center is not within short walking distance. Many guests appreciate the excellent breakfast, including a full Scottish option, and the thoughtful touch of Tunnock's Tea Cakes in the rooms.

a mixed experience, some issues noted

worn mattresskitchen ventilation
The mattress felt quite worn. it seemed to sink in after a short time. i also noticed a constant noise early each morning, possibly from the kitchen ventilation. it stopped in the evening when the restaurant closed. some staff members weren't very cute. I found them not very attentive for a hotel of this level.

Parking at the hotel was quite convenient. The room included robes and slippers.. a nice touch. Breakfast included both buffet and a la carte options. The Scottish breakfast was particularly good, and I especially enjoyed the fresh pastries.
The hotel rooms lacked air conditioning, so I had to keep the windows open to cool the room.
