Housed in the former offices of a historic Scottish newspaper, this 1905 building commands magnificent views of Edinburgh Castle and the Firth of Forth from its grand, ornately carved facade. Located on North Bridge between the bustling New Town and historic Old Town, guests are steps from the Royal Mile and Princes Street, with Waverley Train Station within a short walk. The marble staircase—crowned by an imposing stained-glass window that glows by candlelight each evening—anchors the hotel’s character. Rooms blend period details with modern comfort, offering space to rest between days exploring the city. The bar and lounge serve Scottish whisky and afternoon tea, while a dedicated breakfast restaurant showcases local cuisine. An indoor pool, spa, sauna, and steam bath provide quieter moments. Whether wandering nearby shops, catching a film at the on-site cinema, or unwinding in the wellness area, guests experience Edinburgh through a venue steeped in the city’s cultural heritage.
