Has anyone stayed at this hotel? I'm anxious to know if it is any good. Does anyone have any other recommendations for a nice but not too expensive place to stay near the city center that has non-smoking rooms? We are going to be in Edinburgh in early December. My son has asthma, so we have to have a non-smoking room. Thanks for any help you can give!
Edinburgh Ballantrae Hotel or any other recs?

Lisa, I don'y know the Ballantrae so can't comment. There are a range of £40 per room hotels of the chain variety some of which are very central. Would yo like details of them?
Lisa,
We stayed at the Ballantrae Hotel in October. It was fine, the startling tartan carpet on the stairs rated a picture for our scrapbook. A young Australian Couple are part of the staff, and they are wonderful. Nice rooms, all (I think) non smoking, continental breakfast, easy walk to the town center...I recommend it.
Lisa,
We stayed in a wonderful B&B. My older daughter is astmatic, and so it was important for us to stay in a non-smoking, clean and relatively new room.
The B&B is called Lauderville.
Their web site is
www.laudervilleguesthouse.co.uk
Ask for the large ground floor room (we stayed in). It's new, very clean full of light and airy. I don't think their web site tells the real story (photos are not too good).
Hoppe this helps. Amik.
