Frommer's Review
Located across from the Carlton, this is one of the brightest and most stylish hotels to open in Edinburgh in the last 10 years. Its name honors the newspaper that was published in this building for nearly a century. Units include state-of-the-art bathrooms and some offer such extras as two-way service closets, which means your laundry can be picked up virtually unnoticed. The two-floor penthouse suite is in a category of its own, with a private elevator and balcony with barbecue.
Facilities:
2 restaurants; bar; indoor pool; health club; spa; sauna; salon; room service; massage; babysitting; laundry service; dry cleaning

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
