bold design & distinct comfort
A modern take on Baronial materiality and composition provides the inspiration behind our unique guest rooms. Natural materials such as white oak and textured stone provide a tactile canvas for modern design classics, alongside custom-made furniture and handcrafted pieces. Charming wooden shutters are inspired by the original window fixtures of the historic Old Town and create a warm, homely atmosphere, which is further encouraged by the use of fabric wallpaper and soft woollen accents. Guest room bathrooms have been designed as modern ante-rooms, finished in luxurious marble, featuring solid stone basins and rainfall showers by Via Bizzuno accompanied with amenities from North Berwick based brand Laura Thomas Co.
Christmas Market trip to Edinburgh for 4 nights in December. Rooms excellent with plenty of space, well equipped with an excellent shower! Bed extremely comfortable and view overlooking Market Street & Waverley Station. Very prompt check in and staff very helpful. Housekeeping was very good and thorough, loved the complimentary mini bar which was restocked daily. Good rooftop bar with great views across the city. All in all, my new favourite hotel in Edinburgh - would love to come back and would definitely stay here again

A great hotel to use as a base for a visit to Edinburgh. Couldn’t be better situated next to Waverley Station. Very helpful staff and a great breakfast selection. Very comfortable rooms.
So ideal for Princess Street and the theatre entertainment.
