text: As a Platinum level member of Marriott's frequent flier program, I've stayed in several Marriott properties in the UK and in the US. This one in Edinburgh perfectly hits the formula for a full service Marriott: room service, restaurant, bar, executive lounge, etc.\n\nMy room (I'm not sure if I was upgraded) was quite nice with a comfortable King-size bed, work desk with chair, two lounge chairs, a large flat screen TV and in the cabinets, a mini-fridge and a coffee/tea service tray. The bathroom was well stocked and good sized with that super curved shower curtain rail I keep meaning to get for my own home.\n\nThe room was quiet and clean with little noise from the neighbors or the hallway. I wasn't facing the parking lot (free parking) but the grassy area was host to a colony of at least 10 or 20 of the cutest bunny rabbits that were munching away on who knows what.\n\nOther than the parking and the coffee service, not much else is free here. Some hotels have a \"welcome\" bottle of water waiting. This one did not. Some hotels offer free Internet. This one does not in a big way. Fortunately, I have a WWAN dongle so I don't need their bandwidth at \u00a36 for an hour or \u00a315 for a day (about $10 / $25).\n\nAll told, a comfortable stay that's close to the airport. If you don't have a car and wish to visit Edinburgh's sites, there is a bus stop just across the road and you can be in the city centre in less than a half hour.
