Following our return home from Edinburgh we want to send a HUGE THANK YOU to Glory Days for helping organise our trip. The Tattoo was amazing, our hotel accommodation was excellent, it's location in easy walking distance from the railway station was perfect for us. The room exceeded our expectations and the staff were friendly, welcoming and helpful. Your communications were timely and really informative and the voucher enabling for Edinburgh Tattoo mugs was a lovely surprise.

Just wanted to thank you so much for your assistance with our Tattoo booking this year. We finally made it after missing out in 2020!!! It was awesome- words can’t describe the experience. I still get goosebumps thinking about it. Our accommodation at Virgin Hotels was exceptional- we have travelled extensively and were really impressed with this accommodation, adding to a wonderful few days in Edinburgh. So, if we ever get the chance to come back we would do it all again through your wonderful service and will highly recommend you to our friends and family.
