About the hotel

This 5-star boutique hotel sits majestically beside North Bridge, overlooking Edinburgh Castle and Waverley station, just a minute’s walk from the Royal Mile and Princes Street.

A grand baronial property with contemporary styling, this hotel occupies one of the Scottish capital’s greatest buildings, formerly the residence of The Scotsman newspaper. Edgy design sets sheet glass and steel girders alongside the original walnut panelling, stained glass windows and marble staircase.

The Scotsman Hotel was voted by Conde Nast Traveller as one of the top hotels in the world, and winner of AA Hotel of the Year for Scotland.
