    Good

    The hotel is set in the former Scotsman newspaper building so has a lot of character and architectural features. They don’t always lend themselves to good accessibility. Reviewing from my perspective as a visually impaired person; not taking in to account access for people with mobility impairments.

    The building is a maze of floors and corridors. You do need a hand if you haven’t visited before.

    The hotel is well placed for public transport with bus stops on the North Bridge. There is also another entrance to the hotel which goes out on to Market Street opposite the railway station.

    Poor

    There is an accessible toilet by the conference area and grand staircase. Unfortunately, it is blocked by a portable baby changing unit.
