Amazing customized trip for our extended family. Sarah and all her staff were very accommodating, especially when my son had a medical issue.

Wet room as a bathroom was a bit of an issue.
Angel's Share Hotel
New Town, Edinburgh

Lovely hotel with a great location. Staff at breakfast is a bit unprepared. But the breakfast is good. Nice bar in the evening. Bit of a water issue in the bathroom with the shower water going all over. Has a small elevator which is a plus with a big bag.

Thank you, Kathleen, for this lovely review and this really detailed feedback!

It has been a pleasure crafting this itinerary for your family, and I'm really glad to have connected you with Regan. We trust him 100%, and his local knowledge is as amazing as his reactivity in case of emergency. I'm glad to know that your son is better and that it did not prevent you from having a memorable trip for your family!

Don't hesitate to reach out to us in the future for your next European adventure in the UK, France, or Italy!!

All the best!
